Trial and Error

  • Some people know exactly what they want to do,
  • ther people have no idea…
  • Unlike many decisions in your life, choosing a career

will determine many outcomes for your ENTIRE LIFE

  • For those who go to college, your choice of major

matters – different programs lead to different jobs that earn different amounts of money

  • Choosing what type of job you want to work effects

much more than just how much money you make

Steps you can take right now

  • Career planning is serious business

– Take advantage of people who want to help, including: parents, friends, teachers, school counselors, etc. – Career information is everywhere!

  • 1. Ask people about their jobs! Listen and try to picture

yourself doing what they do. Some will interest you and others won’t, the only way to find out is to get as much information as possible

  • 2. Learn what occupations are in demand. If the job

you are interested in isn’t a realistic possibility, consider similar jobs that you would enjoy

  • 3. Find out if you need college to get the job you want.

Not all great jobs need college, but if the job you are interested in does, you need to know
