Are you looking for your passion? Do you want to explore other fields of interest, but are unsure what they are? Junior year is a perfect time to clarify your career interests and get a better idea of the kinds of work you want to pursue or what graduate programs match your interests. For this workshop we will ask you to take the Strong Interest Inventory prior to our meeting – it is online and takes about 30 minutes.  The Strong is a well-respected tool to help you identify likely career paths of interest.  It also sheds light on your work style and work personality.  When we meet we will discuss the meaning of your results, AND how to take the next steps to explore your career options. 

Register for the event on CareerBridge to receive further instructions on how to take the assessment. Please note there is a $15 charge for this workshop that will be used to pay for the Strong Interest Inventory.
