Finding a Career You'll Love
Finding a career you love isn’t always easy. Experimenting with internships and job shadowing can help, but these opportunities may be competitive and difficult to land. Without any experience in your chosen environment, you may enter a career field that doesn’t meet your expectations. Fortunately, there are many career options, and there’s bound to be a profession perfect for you.

Think about where you see yourself currently, or in the future. Are you happy? Are you challenged by your work? Do you have a bad case of the Sunday-night blues when the weekend is over? If you aren’t content, what would make you satisfied in the long-run?
When you’re searching for your dream job, treat everything as a learning experience and don’t be afraid to ask questions. Read job descriptions and answer interview questions honestly. Most companies are looking for employees that will thrive in their environment; there’s no shame in saying “this isn’t right for me.”
