I learned in this project that careers are hard to achieve and take many steps to be even qualified for that certain career you want. This project helped me to find out what skills I needed for being a sheriff like active listening, critical thinking, writing, speaking, or reading comprehension. I also need to go to classes such as criminal justice and police science there programs that prepare individuals to perform the duties of police and public security officers. Just like if I wanted to be a bartender I need active listening, speaking, mathematics, critical thinking, or reading comprehension skills.

I also need some vocational training or a job related course work and I will need an associate or bachelors degree. The reality check showed me how expensive it would be to live the way I want to. It really opened my eyes because I never thought I needed to make so much money to live. I realize now that I may have to lower my standards or wait a little longer until I get a little more education.

I recommend this project to other students especially if they don’t really know how to pursue their career or what skills are needed for the career they want to be in. In this project you will have to take a test that tells you what you are most interested in and the jobs that match your interests. This is important because people want jobs that they like and pays really well, it makes them happy and want to get out of bed everyday to go to work.

Those careers were film and video director and graphic design. I never really looked in to those career fields before, but this project showed me what the job was about. That was pretty cool to me, because this project showed me some new occupations that I would never have thought of going in to. Like theater design sound engineer or fashion design.

I recommend this project for other students not only because it helps you with planning out how you would achieve the career you pick, but it also broadens your choice of career by showing other ones that would interest you. So if you don’t achieve the job that you want the most you will know that you still have other options toward success. It also shows you that even if you don’t get into a four year collage there are always vocational schools to still help achieve your goal.

As for me, and what I would like to pursue in is mechanical engineering. It requires 4yrs for a masters degree and at least a one year of on the job experience. Classes that are needed are Textile sciences, solar energy Technology, and Mechanical Technology. Skills require things such as mathematics, critical thinking, science, and active listening.

This project definitely helped me think through on what I would like to do as far as my career, and I would most certainly recommend this project for other students. Reasons for because it gives you a chance to start setting goals on were you would like to be in life, also vital information on how to go about pursuing it. I’ve learned how to think decisions through and planning which makes stuff a lot easier.

I have learned that if I want to live the way I want, I would have to work hard and further my educational career. For instance, for the job Archivist, I would have to get a four year bachelor’s degree, and I would need several years of work-related experience. I would appraise, edit, and direct safekeeping of permanent records and historically valuable documents. The more experienced workers earn $54,114 annually. This amount is a little less than what I really want, but it is more than enough for me to get by and live the way I need to.

I recommend this project to other students because it definitely made me think about my future. It shows the students that there are so many jobs out there that they could be interested in. With a plethora of options like this you could learn about new things you’ve never even thought of, you could get your dream job. Knowing what jobs are out there and learning how to obtain them is a good way to expand your horizon and to live happily and on your own.

School has many challenges and obstacles, but in the real world getting a job is even harder than some people suspect. It used to be that you could get some jobs with out a high school diploma, and now you can not even get a job at a fast food chain with out the diploma. It is getting harder for even educated people who have degrees to find a suitable job for their needs. You will earn more money and survive a little better once you get a diploma. I want to be a cosmetologist, and that is not the best job in the world, but it is something that I know that I am good at. My job research indicates that you must go to college, have an on-the-job experience or an associates degree. Some fields also require you to have a bachelor’s degree. Also you will have to have two years training in the field by a professional. I plan on going to C.R.C, specializing in cosmetics and earning my license and bachelors degree to move on to a high paying job.

Being on your own is a big responsibility. There are bills to pay and certain necessities a person can not go without. Certain bills need to be paid, for electricity and water, and food is a major factor on what people like to spend their money on. I have learned that people need to be more conservative to help maintain money in their bank accounts and or pockets. I know that I am going to want to move in with my boyfriend when I am eighteen, even though I know that may not seem like the best decision, I now know all the precautions that I must take and what is like to be on your own. This has really opened to the responsibilities that I am going to have to take on.

I want to succeed in life and learning these skills will help. I am going to be in college and earn my degree. Starting a career is going to be so much fun, it may not being the easiest part of my life, but I know that I will have no regrets doing something that I do so well. I am so thankful that being a woman I am being given the opportunities to make my dreams come true. I can honestly say that I am glad that did all these packets and learned all the things that I have. I would have went into being an adult still being so naïve and thinking everything was going to go the way that I wanted it to. This has really helped me.

This project showed me the skills that I’m going to need in order to achieve my goal of what I want to be in life. I would like to be a Mechanical Engineer; in order for me to achieve this I will need a four year bachelor’s degree and several years of work-related experience. I would need math skills, critical thinking skills, science skills, reading comprehension skills, and active listening skills. I would need knowledge in Engineering and Technology, which I don’t know that much about but that’s why college is important.My plan after high school is to get started on my future by working in the day and taking classes in the evening at a community college that will prepare me to be a Mechanical Engineer.

I would recommend this project to students because it really opens your eyes and gives you a broader look on what you need to do to get yourself in the right path to the career you want. It gives you background information about your career choice and it shows you what skills and education you need to be successful.

This project helped me discover many new opportunities that I may have in the near future. The opportunities that it has showed me are I learned that the career that I thought that I wanted to do will not fit the lifestyle, so I cannot go into fashion unless I choose to do that on the side. I recommend this project to other students because it helps you discover a lot of new opportunities such as what type of education you would need to get the career that you choose. It also teaches you about reality. It gives you an idea of how much money you need to make a year to fit the lifestyle you have chosen.

In the computer field, they usually require a 4 year bachelor’s degree and in the business field you usually need a 4 year bachelor’s degree. In the computer field I would want to be a programmer or web designer because in order to complete the tasks that job requires you must be creative and artistic and that’s what I am. In the business field I will like to pursue is business analyst and managing because I like to be in active, think on your feet job environment. Both of those jobs pay in a range of $65,000-$95,000 starting. The skills I may need in the future is creativeness, mathematical literate, and quick critical thinking. Reason being to make decisions in computer programming and/or web design you must be creative enough to create new, unique, never before seen designs and programs. In the business field you must be creative enough to find ways to make the business better and easier. In the computer field numbers are always involved because computers use a language called “binary numbers” which is a sequence of 1’s and 0’s, In the business field you always need math because your always dealing with money and statistics.

I recommend this project for anyone who believes they have a future and believe there here for a purpose because it helps you get a clearer understanding of the “real” world and aids you in organizing your future.
