Discover Yourself
Are you:
- Getting ready to go to college but not quite sure what to study?
- Already in college, but having second thoughts about the degree you have chosen to pursue?
- In the workforce, but want—or need—to change your career path?
If you find yourself in one of these populations, relax. It is common for one’s vision for their career to become out of focus, regardless if they are a student or a working adult. But you can change that by engaging in a self-assessment process. Self-assessment can reveal your personal attributes, values, skills, interests and personality traits, and knowing these can help you make an informed career choice.
