How is it being a female in a male-dominated career?
I am majoring in Computer Science and it is clear to me that there is a huge gender-gap. I am a bit worried about being over-looked because I will be a female in a male-dominated career. Any tips on how to stand-out and how to not let the gender-gap affect you? Thank you so much for your guidance. #expertise #career #stem #women #technology

How do you find a lifelong career that you will love and be passionate about?
I'm still young, in my early twenties asking for advice or helpful insight on finding the right path for me. I'm currently enrolled in a Jobcorps Center and am pursuing Pharmacy technician and or other trade work training. I have several small interests that I enjoy but none that I feel confident building into a lifelong career. I graduated from high school during the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, and I feel it's stunted my growth into a career. I'm interested in STEM, Language studies, Anatomy Physiology, forensics, Physical fitness, Chemistry, Woodworking, and Medicine. I'm artistic and investigative and wish to do a career that I find challenging and rewarding. I've traveled to Europe, Studied French in southern France, and interned as a sales associate in Ireland with a Designer Exchange Company; all of which were wonderful experiences but I'm unsure how to turn them into a career for my future. So how do I narrow down my interests into a career I will find fulfilling in my later life?
Why did you become an auditor?
I just heard about this job. I'm great with numbers, and do well in math class in high school, but this job sounds kind of boring. Do you like your job as an auditor? Is it really as boring as it sounds staring at spreadsheets and numbers all day? I'd also like to hear why you chose to become an auditor. Thank you! #business #finance #accounting #math #stem #auditing

How do I build back my motivation?
At the beginning of the semester of college, I had much better habits and motivation. Alas, that didn't last very long. Now, I don't have any motivation. I'm constantly grasping concepts slower than my peers (I feel I'm behind in everything compared to my peers), I haven't done many extracurriculars because I bury myself in schoolwork and I run out of energy too fast, and I feel like I'm always going to be this forgettable person for the rest of my life (I'll never have any value). This semester has probably been the worst for my almost non-existent mental health. I feel lost. How can I feel "unlost"?

Is an MBA more useful than a PhD if I want to keep my options open?
I'm a 3rd year physics major at RIT and still have no idea what I want to do for a living once I graduate. I've heard that our MBA program is great, and I've been enjoying business-related work in my current job. Though I'm not sure what physics and business could combine to make me uniquely qualified for... I'd appreciate any thoughts! #physics #college #physics-major #mba #phd #business #science #stem
How do I know what career and major I want to go into?
I'm a Sophomore in high school, and thinking about the future, but I've never known what I want to do. I'm starting to have an idea, but I feel like the career I might want to go into is risky, expensive, might not pay off, and I'm scared of what I would have to do in that career. I don't know if I should pursue said career or look for other "safer" careers.

How to prepare for an internship?
I’m in progress of a computer science bachelor degree. However, I’ve only had two coding classes: an introductory class using Visual Basic, and C++. I do not feel that I have learned much and would like to be more qualified for future internships. How may I further increase my knowledge outside of school? #computer #computer-science #stem #software #softwareengineer #softwaredeveloper #technology #womeninstem #internship #science #computer #computer-software
Employers: How important is school ranking when hiring?
Hello, I am currently in high school and I want to study mechanical engineering to hopefully break into aerospace. I would like to work for JPL or Boeing in the future but I cannot afford to attend colleges out of state (where it has much better rankings) because of how expensive everything is as well as family related issues. I do have a chance to attend an in-state school but, it is a lower ranked school nationally and I am worried that it might hinder some opportunities to advance in my future career. So, I am hoping to obtain sound advice using this website as the people I have talked to haven’t been much of a help. Is college ranking a determining factor of whether of not someone can be successful in the field of engineering? Thank you.

What major should you NOT go to college for?
Hello! As a college student in the middle of my career, I wanted to submit a question. What majors should students NOT go to college to study for? If you do list any majors: What do you recommend students do (instead) to pursue their career goals? I hope this question could help future students interested in jobs and help them make the most of their time after high school. I feel I went through a lot of indecision and stress over how to use my time after graduation. Let's start the conversation!
How will I know when a specific field of engineering is for me?
I am a senior in high school and I have applied to numerous colleges for engineering. My only problem is that I applied undecided engineering and after hearing numerous colleges talk about the different fields of engineering they offer, I still can't seem to lean towards a field that I like. I don't have much experience in engineering so I'm scared that I won't be able to make the correct decision. #undecided #engineering #college #STEM
Who am I? What am I doing here?
I am struggling with my own individual identity and I have so many career questions. I want to be an astronaut but sometimes I just want to be a policeman.
