That being said, you might already know what your personal interests are and how they connect to your interests and skills. If that\u2019s the case, you can use the following steps to reflect on your current career goals. If you\u2019re unsure what you want to do, that\u2019s perfectly fine. Classes like this one can help. Keep an open mind, and pay attention to what interests you.\r\n\r\nLet\u2019s start with the idea that there are five steps to choosing a career. There are potentially many steps on the path you will take to discovering your career, but let\u2019s start with five. We\u2019ll begin with a question, and then we\u2019ll provide some suggestions for you to do your own research. There are no right answers, and you are welcome to change your mind. As you read, take notes about your immediate thoughts as you work through the steps and the questions.\r\n<h2>Step 1: What interests you?<\/h2>\r\nYou\u2019re the only person who can answer this question.\r\n\r\nThere are many resources on the Internet that can help you sort out what you are most interested in, so if the answer doesn\u2019t appear to you immediately, that\u2019s fine.\u00a0Try doing an Internet search to find a career-interest survey. Take note of your answers and spend a minute or two reflecting on what matters to you.

Are you interested in statistics? Do you like talking about the latest technology trends? Do you like building things using tools? Do you like helping others solve problems?\u00a0 Are you interested in health care?\r\n<div class=\"textbox exercises\">\r\n<h3>career paths<\/h3>\r\nThere are many resources on the Internet for exploring career paths. Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indeed.com\/career-advice\/careers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Indeed's Potential Career Paths<\/a> to learn more about the knowledge, skills, and abilities that different career paths require.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nNow that you have a list of what interests you, spend a minute thinking about what you already know, what you have to learn, and what you need to do in order to get the career that you want. Spend a little time searching for the level of education your career requires. Do you need an associate\u2019s degree, a bachelor\u2019s degree, a master\u2019s degree, or a doctorate degree?\r\n<h2>Step 3:\u00a0What do you want from a career?<\/h2>\r\nNow that you have spent a bit of time learning about the education that you need for your career, let\u2019s spend some time thinking about what you want from a career. You might take a minute to write a list of deal makers and deal breakers as a way of organizing your ideas for what matters to you. For example, do you want to work for a small company in your community or a large corporation? Does it appeal to you to work for your local government or for a brand-new business? Do you want to work for a close-knit team in an office or do see yourself working independently with a remote team? Do you see yourself growing into a leadership position or do you want to work in the behind-the-scenes of an organization?\r\n\r\nThese are a lot of questions to consider, so take a minute to think about the career that would make you the most satisfied and why. Some people are most interested in financial stability, and if that\u2019s you, that\u2019s fine. Others want financial stability and the feeling that they are contributing some greater good. Whatever your motivations, it\u2019s helpful to think through what you want from your career.\r\n<h2>Step 4: What is your ideal career choice?<\/h2>\r\nSome of you will read this question, and you will hear the words immediately. You know exactly what you want! Some of you may have already had one career, and now you\u2019ve gone back to school to pursue another. Others may still be wondering what it is you want to do, and that is a fine place to be as a college student.\r\n\r\nBarbara Sher, a best-selling author, is famous for saying, \u201cFind a career that you love and you will never work another day in your life.\u201d This is a nice sentiment, but let\u2019s face it: you are still going to be working! What does this quote really mean to you? Perhaps it\u2019s a helpful perspective that if you\u2019re going to spend most of your waking hours working, you might as well be doing something you enjoy.\r\n<h2>Step 5: Who can help you with your career goals?<\/h2>\r\nThe last four steps have asked you to brainstorm on your own so that you have a plan. Now it\u2019s time to think about who can help you execute this plan. A counselor or an advisor can help. If you aren\u2019t sure how to get started, ask your teacher how to get started on your campus's resources.\r\n\r\nIs there a career center on your campus? You might be able to find information online to set up an appointment to talk to somebody. If you are unsure of how to get started, check with your teacher about what your campus offers students.\r\n\r\nFinally, one idea that might help the most is to talk to somebody who has the job or the type of career that you want. Start with your friends and family to see if there is somebody in your network who might be able to introduce you. You might also use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">professional career network like LinkedIn<\/a> to find somebody who might talk to you about what they do. Don\u2019t feel pressured to complete this step. Focus on your interests and goals for now.\r\n\r\nFinding a career isn't necessarily an easy process, but you'll find that your goals so much more tangible once you've set a preliminary career goal. Don't\u00a0forget: there is always support for you. Ask for any help you need!\r\n<div class=\"textbox tryit\">\r\n<h3>Try It<\/h3>\r\nhttps:\/\/assess.lumenlearning.com\/practice\/4fb94b2d-7293-4caf-800f-34b6183729ea\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h2>Resources for Learning More about Careers<\/h2>\r\nTo help you navigate your pathway to career success, take advantage of all the resources available to you.
