Not sure where to start when it comes to finding information about all of the different careers out there? Don’t worry. Here are a couple of resources to help you get started with your research:
O*NET
This database allows you to look up facts about any career. You can learn about the day-to-day tasks, skills and level of education needed, and a variety of other information. This is a great place to start your research.
Career Stories
These are actual first-hand accounts of real people talking about their jobs. There is a career story for just about any job you can think of and while reading through them, ask yourself if you could picture yourself in the same role.
Job Descriptions
Entering in a job title in a job search website like Indeed or SimplyHired can give you information about the daily responsibilities and qualifications needed for that particular field.
Informational Interviewing
One of THE best tools you can use when researching careers. If you have questions about a certain career, who better to ask than someone who is actually doing that job? See our previous blog post and Informational Interviewing Guide for details.
