Carreer Exploration


My three career choices for this project are a psychologist, cosmetologist and lastly a nurse. For the most part I know that I want to be some type of psychologist. But sometimes I have doubts about it because I know there's going to be a lot of schooling to complete. But I know its a field that I'm really interested in. In order to be a psychologist, It is suggested to get either a maters degree or bachelors degree. I also need to have a certificate in psychology. I don't necessarily have to have an undergraduate major in psychology. But that's the route that I'm taking so far. I feel that this career will support the lifestyle that I want to live. Psychologists get paid a pretty good salary. For me, I really have a passion for this career, so the fact that they get paid a reasonable amount is good. I know there's many other jobs that pay better but psychology is what I'm interested in. I feel that along my journey of becoming a psychologist I may get overwhelmed at times but at the end it will be worth it. I just have to work hard for it.

Interviews

In the interviews I think that I did a pretty good job. I feel that I did a good job in making a first impression. When I introduced myself I made sure that I smiled and pronounced my name clearly. I was also relaxed and tried to be myself. I did well at being open and honest with her. Something that I could have done better is actually prepare for the interview. I didn't go overthrown questions the day before. I just went in with the advice that I Got from allow the guest speakers. This activity was useful because it gave envy one experience for when we have to have a real job interview. I know that these tips will always stick with me. It was helpful as well because it gave great advice of the things to do and not to do in the business world.
