How can the world's youth discover careers that are aligned with consciousness and Buddhism?

...was asked outside, at BSE, with following addition:

Quote from: Nyom Peter Abreo
Millennial's and the young workforce are faced with a difficult choice of discovering alternate careers/gigs. Can spirituality, universal consciousness, meditation, environment trigger a human-plus careers?

Venerable members of the Sangha,
Venerable fellows,

Upasaka, Upasika,
Interested,

- Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammā-sambuddhassa -

My person used to answer as following:

Good householder, interested,
It's good and praiseworthy if one is after encouraging youth to moral and generosity and righteous way of live, blameless, Sadhu.

To trace out a good path, finding good ways, by listening and conviction in what the Buddha taught, is a very individual issue (matter of Nissaya,
 Upanissaya , conditions worked out with past and present deeds), like all else. That there are mostly less, very less, who encounter the Dhamma of a Sublime Buddha is very normal, but who ever goes after the highest blessings , if not yet gifted, would match the right track .

Ideas about a universal consciousness are ideas not found in the Sublime Buddhas teachings but generally moral and ethic is on a fast decaying track currently, so actually hard for many, if even eager after right livelihood and freedom from remorse.

How ever, as individual, as the Sublime Buddha told, if it would not be possible, he wouldn't have encouraged to it, but because right conduct, leading right livelihood is possible, the Buddha taught not only right effort , but the prerequisites and steps after it toward even highest independency and unbound .
