Careers In Health And Other Fields
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008Choosing a career is not something you should do on a whim. It will be a huge part of your life and you should use whatever tools are available to you. Some resources available to help you choose your career path are personality assessments, career counselors, and internships. There are a lot of books about personality assessments and there are also online assessments that are free. If you simply Google personality assessment, thousands of tests you can take will come up.
Career counselors are usually only available to students who will be graduating soon. It is so important that you meet with your career counselor if you are a student because not only do they have tips about choosing a great career, they usually have contacts within organizations that recruit on your campus. The best way to determine what type of career you want is by doing internships. A lot of times the best thing you will learn from an internship is that you hate a certain kind of work. Every internship you do is beneficial; even if you hate the actual internship you can still put it on your resume.
