I Don't Know What I Want To Do.....
A lot of our customers feel they don’t have
enough information to make a decision about their career path. There are several on-line resources to help, as well as assistance
at the
One-stop Career Centers. We use the
O*Net
skills and ability profiler. It takes about 15-20 minutes and you can print out the results.
Also, you’ll want to take a look at some specifics about some
career ideas so you can find out how much education and what other
qualifications are recommended for the job. Many times once you see the specifics of a job you’ll be able to
determine if it is a good match for you. Learn
