Are there a lot of available jobs for people who major in sociology?

I feel like it is a very underpaid career to pursue but there may be some benefits in it and I want to know what those benefits may be.

What is the best part about being a social worker?

Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. I have a fellow classmate who wants to become a social worker. I've heard that it's a "thankless" job. Why would they want to do it? What makes the job worth it? #social-work

How is a bachelor of science degree different from a bachelor of the arts degree?

Should I minor in a subject?

At what point during one's college experience should they select a major?

I will be entering college this spring, and like many people I am currently undecided as to what I want to major in. I know that this is not unusual, but what I do not know is at what point it is best to make the decision. At what times did others choose their majors? How did it work out?...

What are some ways that I can get more money for college?

I'm enrolled in a liberal arts college for the fall and it is pretty pricey! I have a little bit over half of my tuition paid for by the scholarships that my school has given me.. I have only heard back from one of the scholarships in my area that I have applied for. I have cerebral palsy so it...

What advice would you offer to someone who isn't exactly 100% sure what type of career they want to pursue?

I know some interests I have, and possible careers I may be interested in, but I'm not quite sure how to decide or figure out which path is the right one for me. #career #career-path #career-paths #undecided #career-plan
