I came across this presentation by Patrick Neeman, an award-winning user experience leader, and I thought it gave a very nice overview of potential UX career paths.
Links to all the resources mentioned in the presentation can be found below, as you cannot actually link to them directly from the presentation. Hope you find it as helpful as I did!
Pro Tip: expand the presentation as it is quite hard to read at the embedded size.
Resources:
