My Career Goal ( Your Career Goals )

In my community, I volunteer immensely with the 4-H and FFA youth in Pima County and Arizona. I am a cavy judge at local shows throughout the year, as well as a certified shooting sports leader to teach 4-H members safe shooting techniques with rifles. I was also given the opportunity to volunteer with Future Farmer of America student members through my sorority, Sigma Alpha. I will be volunteering with the Meat Evaluation CDE at the State CDE Day, and have applied to be a Camp Counselor at the Arizona State FFA Camp held at Camp Shadow Pines in Herber, Arizona in June. Volunteering with youth involved in agriculture has allowed me to give back to a community that gave me so much during my youth. 4-H transformed me into the young woman I am

Arguably, nursing school has been one of my most significant challenges to date. In part, I have been successful because I appreciate the intensity the accelerated nursing program offers, and I pursue additional opportunities to immediately apply my knowledge. In addition to my courseload, I teach CPR to expectant families at Pennsylvania Hospital, work as a clinical researcher at HUP, and volunteer as an EMT for the Narberth Ambulance Company. Further, I seek feedback and advice from mentors and instructors during the program. Finally, my undergraduate career, and particularly some of my more demanding classes like organic chemistry, offered an opportunity to understand strategies that work – or don’t – in learning difficult material, and I apply this knowledge to meet the academic challenges of the program. I want to challenge myself moving forward, as I work towards becoming a leader in primary care.

When I was fourteen years old, my great-grandmother had an ischemic stroke and struggled with Broca’s Aphasia until she passed away seven months later. What she left me with, however, was a gift greater than anything of monetary value: passion for the healthcare field. For months prior to her death, I watched her devote her life to redeeming her expressive language. I was inspired tremendously by her gallantry and decided that I wanted to make a difference in the lives of others. However, when I was applying to colleges, I chose nursing because it was what my parents suggested I pursue as a career. After coming to college with the anticipation of graduating with a degree in nursing, I was disappointed when, after two years of school, I realized

My second goal specifically is to get a position in the human resources department with my current employer within the next six months. Gaining a position in the human resources department puts me one step closer to achieving my long-term goal of becoming a human resource manager. The goal is measurable because I plan to apply to any position I see posted in the human resources department that interest me and align with my professional goals. The goal is attainable because I have access to our job postings website and I plan to check this website for updates at least twice per week. This is a reasonable goal because I sometimes have downtime at work, which would allow me to use that time to search for new postings and even apply. This goal is time-bound because I gave myself a deadline of six months to achieve it. With my updated resume, experience and now my current course of study at Western Governors University, it makes me a desirable candidate for a position in HR.

In this personal statement I will address my plans and aspirations for completing a graduate education. I believe that an adequate college education is a necessity in today’s society. There are numerous resources and opportunities available to those who choose to seek a college education. I am committed to continuing my education to achieve my career goal of becoming a family nurse practitioner. Several members of my family are in the healthcare field, as both doctors and nurses. I have had the privilege of growing up observing and learning about the field from a private practice perspective. From this, I developed my interest in the healthcare field and decided that I wanted to become a part of the healthcare field. I want to be able to make a difference in the world and in people’s lives. I have often heard about there being a nursing shortage and the need for more practicing nurses and advance practicing nurses. After researching and evaluating the different roles and job opportunities in healthcare, I determined that nursing is the specific area that is the best fit for me. By pursing my career goal to become a family nurse practitioner, I could make a difference in the world and people’s lives as well as help fill the need for nurses.

When my sister came to me yelling as loud as her voice could hold, about how she dropped out of college and abandoned her goal of pursuing a nursing degree, my heart stopped immediately. With her eyes watering and her hands shaking, I knew that she was overwhelmed with stress. At that moment, I instantly realized that my interest in the health care field needed to become a reality. It challenged me to step into a career where others assume that dreams in the nursing field for minority students is impossible. Getting up every morning as a PEOPLE scholar in the summer, feeling as if I were still in school, I was living my dream as a health care manager with an internship in the health care field. I was learning about different strategies to promote professionalism, preparing for CNA classes, and learning exactly what will be expected of me when pursuing a career in

My career goal is to become a Recreational Therapist. Recreational therapist typical help those with disabilities, illnesses, or injuries, whether children or adults. Through recreation-based treatment programs they help maintain or improve a patient’s physical, social, and emotional well-being. According to the bereu of labor statistics employment of recreational therapists is projected to grow 13 percent from 2012 to 2022, about as fast as the average for all occupations.

I grow both personally and professionally through my relationship with nursing. Unlike many other careers, the growth is reciprocal. Nursing gives me the freedom to venture into uncharted territory and in turn, nursing’s boundaries expand. As the field of nursing develops and strengthens in new areas, unique and rewarding opportunities become available to me. While I achieve a Master’s of Science in Adult Primary Care from New York University the profession of nursing will, in return, be rewarded with a valuable contributor.

Recently in healthcare there has been a growing awareness in the delivery of healthcare and the errors and flaws that exist in the service of healthcare. Seeing how common and serious these flaws are it takes dedication and innovation to create a safer delivery of healthcare to all. Being a nurse and seeing the impact that I could have with each one of my patients and their families has brought great satisfaction to my everyday work. Since beginning my journey to become a nurse I knew from the first day that I would want to continue my education beyond my bachelor’s degree. With my love of learning and drive to progress my career I was excited to jump into a graduate program.

My current career goals include working in the field of microbiology. Although, I am at a crossroads regarding my path of study: becoming a pathologist (medical doctor) or gaining a Masters as a microbiologist. I am highly interested in conducting research for the CDC or other firms in studying viruses and other pathogens and developing vaccines or cures. My interest for pathogens started as a child when I would watch countless zombie films. I later discovered I was more interested in the disease and the idea of a pandemic than the actual zombie thriller. In high school I enrolled in science classes and researched more about pathogens and occupations involving microorganisms and determined that I would pursue a career in microbiology. My interest

From a young age, I was drawn to the healthcare field, not because the amount of money doctors, nurses or other health professionals made, but because of the dedication and commitment I saw on their faces helping someone in need. As a little child becoming a doctor or a nurse was the ideal profession my parents wanted for me. I had high hopes that one day I would become a nurse. However, that dream came to a halt, when I decided to pursue other endeavors within the healthcare field. Spring 2015, my first year of nursing school was not as successful as I anticipated.

As a nurse, I have a life-long commitment to learning in order to advocate for my patients. I have always had a passion for learning; however, the opportunities afforded by the College of Nursing have taught me how to do so within my career and for my entire life. Not only do I have a drive to continually learn, my experience here enables my desire to carry on the flame of prestige, hard work, and innovation of University of Utah alumnus possesses. After I

I am currently working on earning APE in mechanical engineering at SLCC. After earning an APE, I will transfer to the University of Utah to earn B.S. in mechanical engineering. Afterward, I will work on getting an MBA. I want to be a licensed mechanical engineer in every state, and I will work day and night to have a good reputation and make my name known so I can start my own engineering firm one day. I am pursuing this path because I want to gain the practical experience that I can use in pursuing my ultimate career goal, which is earning Ph.D. to teach people and do research. I want to help, support, and prepare students to do better in their careers. Ever since I was a kid, I was the child who wanted to know more, the child that keeps asking

Currently, there are many types of goals I have for myself that are important to my career. Of the first, I want to stay here at University of Saint Francis and get my Bachelors in Science of Nursing. I’ve transferred to and from many colleges since being out of high school and I think I’ve finally found my home at USF. This degree would help me obtain a job that is something I enjoy doing rather than something I’m forced to do. Secondly, I would love to be on the Dean’s List every semester. I’m not quite sure how this fits in with my career other than it would be something I can say I did while getting my degree. Lastly, I plan on sticking with my job at the nursing home in hopes that someday I can use that as resume builder and gain extra knowledge in things I wouldn’t normally be able to access in a classroom. Who knows, this might lead to further advancement and even promotion!
