When I joined the workforce, my problem was that I had TOO MANY things I was interested in, and wasn't sure what I should do. Luckily, my organization publishes and uses a wide variety of personality assessments, including the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, and Strong Interest Inventory tools. The Myers-Briggs helped me explore the most prevelant aspects of my personality to help me think about the sort of work environment and work style I was looking for, and the Strong helped me narrow my interests into the right field and learn how different careers job-functions matched up with my interests. For example, I was extremely interested in writing, and wanted to be a "writer" for a career, but after realizing most people start out in tech or grant writing, and that the job calls for a lot of time alone, I realized I would be better off using my writing skills in a more varied work environment. I was also really interested in academic and research psychology, but after learning about the beauracracy inherent in the education system and realizing a lot of the job tasts involved administration and data entry, I realized my personality type was a lot more suited to applied psychology where I could use insights about people to achieve success in a business. Sitting down and really examining your interests and personality, and being realistic about the job functions of a particular career path can really help you get started, and make the right career decisions.agammyhttp://www.cppiconsuccess.comnoreply@blogger.com
