Tech Career Goals
I am currently going into my third semester of college. In my first two semesters, I've been focusing on nursing, completing the classes for applying to the program. Unfortunately, I couldn't apply to the nursing program for the two semesters. Now going into the third, it's time for me to figure out what I want to do. I have been going back and forth with what really interests me, what I can see myself doing. I've become interested in computers and technology. Before, I thought that nursing was a career I saw myself doing. Now I've had an interest in computers, and tech. It is something that I see myself doing. I need advice for furthering my interest and different careers that can help. I've had a part-time job where I have to enter information from a book onto Excel, also creating stories for fun on Episode. What is a career that can put me in that direction?
