When debating career paths one must weigh several aspects to ensure future happiness and desired ambitions. Three main components that will ultimately be my decisive factors in the matter are as follows. The education required to enable a job opportunity is the career path's most essential element. Along with the necessary schooling, one must possess or build the skills needed to complete the choice career's responsibilities. Although money may seem greedy and narrow-minded I want to be positive; I will have the ability to care for other and myself with ease, and will remain one of my key focuses. An architectural position requires rigorous educational programs; the skills obtained by a jack-of-all-trades, and is by no means a slouch in the earnings category. With structures ranging from the Birds Nest in Beijing to your every-day apartment complex, an architect's work can effect an entire population or just your average middle-class family. Whereas a personal trainer cannot as easily impact entire populations, they do change people for the better. A personal trainer can also expect enduring hours of study and the acquirement of many skills involving health and fitness however; most personal trainers will not reach the income of an architect. Through gathering information and evaluating my needs and stature, I can select which career I would take more pleasure in further pursuing. Educational requirements are the first step in the debates involving my own future career.
The two career paths that I’m interested in are computer programming and graphic design. The reason why I choose computer programming as a career is because I’m interested in how programs work and how to make my own programs. From what I’ve seen, programming is very difficult because it takes a lot of trials and errors and thinking to get the expected results. However, the product afterwards is worth all the effort. The other career that I’m interested in is becoming a graphic designer because I like to draw and create my own images. If I were to choose a career, it would be one of these two.
The profession that I am interested in is an Athletic Trainer. I have chosen this career because it is something that I have recently become passionate about within the last two years. I have never been the kind of person to struggle with weight, however after having my 3rd and last child, weight has become an issue. I mention my personal struggle to give insight on why I have chosen an Athletic Trainer. This profession’s main goal is physical fitness. As a trainer you become responsible for another person’s physical active lifestyle. Assisting clients from injury to recovery, evaluating their bodies and advising the individual what is best. Athletic Trainers has many responsibilities. AT’s are professionals in the health care world who mainly caters to athletes. An AT however isn’t limited to just athletes. They work with just about anyone. Ages ranging from a child to an adult. Different skill and jobs, people such as soldiers, high school athletes, and professional athletes.
For as long as I can remember, my profession of choice has been an occupation in the healthcare field. My dad often reminisces on when I was three when he would ask me “What’s your name?” I would reply with “Dr. Peppers.” Well sixteen years later my dream of being a doctor no longer exists, however my goal to become one of the best athletic trainers in the country is burning with passion. Growing up I wanted to be several different occupations like a trauma nurse, an obstetrician, or a physical therapist, before realizing after two years of high school sports medicine that athletic training was my niche. In coming to better comprehend athletic training as a career, my experiences in my classes and clinical here at Winthrop along with my high school experience in sports medicine has shaped my understanding of the athletic training world.
When I think of my career goals, I ask myself what I want to accomplish in life. I know that I love helping patients and families, and I want to continue to do that. I always am changing my mind on what I want to do after my BSN. I don’t know when or if I will get my masters or continue to work at the bedside for a while. I love what I do and what I do for other people and families. Working in the critical care unit feels like home. I get to do what I love.
When it comes to job prospects, Athletic Trainers can have a fairly easy time finding a job if they look in the right areas. Missouri is the easier place to find a job if a person wanted to be an Athletic Trainer because there are more job opportunities. If a person wants to work as an Athletic Trainer it will be easiest to live in a city or town that has colleges, universities, or gyms (“Employment and Outlook” 1). Once I get the right education, I feel confident that I will find a job as an Athletic Trainer. I am glad that I would not have to leave Missouri since there are typically job openings here. I would rather not move out of Missouri, but I would not mind moving if it meant that I got to pursue the career of my choice.
Growing up we all have dreams and great aspirations to be something one day. All of us with something different in mind, some of us along the same line, whether it's a professional athlete,astroughnaught, superman/woman,or even a parent to our soon to be kids,we all dream to be something one day. But along the lines of reality, we hit a wall,a wall of truth. The wall of truth being our grades aren't good enough, you're too short, or the fact you can't fly. Well i know what I want to be, I want to be an athletic trainer. What influenced me? John Alder.
Through my experience with sports, particularly volleyball, I always knew I wanted to work with athletes, like myself. My ideal post-graduate job would be an athletic trainer. The dream is to work at the training booths at sports tournaments and camps helping athletes with minor injuries. My decision to become an athletic trainer has stemmed from my desire to remain in the sports world long after my college volleyball career is has completed. I have always been strong in Science and Mathematics, I am so glad that I was able to finally pick a major based on my athlete’s schedule, career goals, and academic strengths. Along with athletic training, I want to be a coach. Not only do I want to be a coach, but a phenomenal coach; someone that
To be honest, I am not really sure what profession I want to pursue after college. I would actually like to try many different things in hopes of finding a career that matters to me personally and that is why I am drawn to the idea of a liberal arts education. I am drawn to the schools peaceful surrounding community and its motivation to instill a sense of civic duty. When I visited Bates over the summer I was intrigued by the campus and the students that were still there. The serene nature of Maine was another one of the factors that interested me. I was in awe at how tightly connected the alumni was to the school and how all of the students were treated the same. The idea that no one will slip through the cracks and that the teachers and
Coming to Rutgers University I knew that my major interest would be in Exercise Science and Medicine. One of the reasons I wanted to major in Exercise Science was because of my intentions to become a Physical Therapist. The course work of the Exercise Science programs entails a strong understanding of functional human anatomy, kinesiology, and human physiology, which are all relevant coursework for Physical Therapy school. One major benefit of this major is the senior internship that all students have to find in order to graduate with a B.S. Secondly, another major that interests me but is underrepresented is Nutrition. Ever since I started being conscious about my health and what foods are essential, I found nutritional science profoundly interesting. Nutrition encompasses strong background knowledge in biochemical, physiological, and behavioral processes. This major gives students many marketable opportunities in medicine, dietetics, and clinical research. Finally, the third major that I would consider is Molecular Biology and Biochemistry. This major encompasses many principles of the biological systems as well as supplementing knowledge from Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. The spectrum of careers and applications of this major include research in biotechnology and genetic engineering.
I feel that my time assisting a local cutting horse trainer lope his horses at NCHA shows and during the summer for practice has helped me be able to ride multiple horses, and uncover more ways that a horse learns, and how to adjust. It has definitely helped me know what it's like to train cutters, and I will definitely benefit from that since I want to train cutters in the
My decision to become a physical therapist really started at the end of my first application cycle. Waiting for any form of notification eagerly, hands shacking, heart pounding, and mind racing imposed fear into my life that the dream of becoming a physical therapist was not actually going to happen. Receiving one of these notification, caused a panic especially when the words, “I regret to inform you..” appeared on the page. In attempts to change the frame of mind I was in, I did anything, but I could not seem to escape the feelings of anxiety over being held back from what I wanted to do for a career the rest of my life. During that moment, something happened. The fear, stress, and anxiety were all negative feelings, but I knew I cared about this field that strongly that I would become worked out to the point I thought my life was over.
In my years of high school, I found interest in engineering. My career choice would have to be an architect because I want to write the instructions on building things that need to be assembled. An architect is someone that does the designs and planning for structures. I am the person in my family who everyone goes to if something needs to be put together. The only problem with these instructions is that they are not specific enough with the directions. This in turn brought an interest to me because I want everyone to be able to understand what he or she are doing and not have to make many mistakes.
Finding a job in America can be a tough task within its self especially with little education. Therefore, finding a career that suits your interest in addition to your pockets should always be a priority. In this paper, I will describe how a nursing career is arguably more promising than an interior designer. During my research, I learned the outlook, salary, qualifications, requirements and daily task required for each career. An interior designer is a thrilling career for those who are artistic and creative. However, the outlook for this career is not high and continuously decreasing in numbers yearly. A nursing career is gratifying, but it is also an extreme amount of a work and awfully stressful. Each careers path come with a handful
I work for Mercer’s sister company NERA Economic Consulting in Washington, DC. I am hoping you can put me in touch with someone who can discuss Mercer’s consulting career path. I earned my MBA with specialties in Finance and Marketing at George Washington University. Now that my lock-in period with NERA has expired, I am looking to transition into a management consulting role in the areas of Health & Benefits or Talent. While my career path to date has mainly focused on strategy and marketing within the professional services industry, I have strong analytical skills that compliment my business and communication acumen. I look forward to a new career path that provides me with improved growth potential, access to clients, and is more analytical
My post-secondary education has been thought about since the fifth grade (This is awkwardly worded perhaps simplify to something like “I have been planning my post-secondary path since I was in fifth grade.” and then since this is a very odd thing for a 10 year old to do explain why).. I’ve thought about different colleges, in different places. Now, however, I’ve decided on my top three colleges. University of Oxford, University of East London, and University of Washington. I’ve never thought that I would pursue Oxford since it was way out of my league, but after researching about what it’s looking for, I knew that I could do it. I do plan to either take Journalism/Communications, Business, or Government science as my majors (I don’t think
