Becky’s Answer

A great first step on your life's journey is to discover ways to identify your traits, likes, and dislikes. It can sometimes be tough to consider these factors while working towards your goals. Using online tools, such as skill, personality, and career tests, can help you stay on track. As a former career technology teacher, I used to suggest this website for my students: https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test. Answer the questions as honestly as you can. After getting your results, the site offers career ideas that have made others with similar personalities happy.

There are also many other evaluation tools available online and from your classroom teachers, especially career technology educators, to help you uncover your passions, abilities, and possible interests based on your personality.

Your first career choice might not be something you do for your entire life. Learning how to assess what you enjoy doing, the skills you've gained and find joy in, and what new chances are out there is an important skill that will benefit you from the start of your working life until you retire.

If your school doesn't have a career technology teacher for more direct help, talk to your school counselor. They can also assist you in developing strategies to use throughout your life to determine the best career for you at any given time.

Carmen’s Answer

I wholeheartedly concur with the aforementioned ideas, and a crucial method to genuinely delve into new opportunities is not strictly adhering to your passion, but as Simon suggests, pursuing your curiosity. So, whatever piques your interest today, go ahead and discover more about it. Absorb all the information, and if you choose to proceed, that's great; if not, you've gained valuable knowledge and can move on to the next possibility - fully understanding your thoughts about that particular job or career.
