Career Counseling
Students, who are undecided about a career or major and/or need
assistance setting an academic goal, should seek career counseling.
Career counseling will help a student become more self-aware. They will
learn about the career planning process that includes an examination of
their interests, skills, life values, and information about the world of
work and job families. Students who have an academic plan based on a
career goal will usually have an easier time selecting their courses
each semester. The career will define the major or program of study the
student should follow.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Career exploration is a multi-step process that starts with a
self-assessment of your strongest interests, skills and values. Please
visit the transfer/career center to take the online skills personality
test. You can also visit the online counseling link via this website
www.ecounselsdcity.net to
review online career resources.
2. Once you know more about yourself you can look at which occupations
would be a good match via the Career center DISCOVER software
program.
3.
Finally, you will need to look into the job market for your chosen field
to assess what opportunities are available. All of these steps can be
addressed through resources available to you in San Diego City’s
Transfer/Career Center or online links.
