Career Project

2. I learned that I am a more of a Social person who is also known as “the helper.” I
am very verbal. I love to express myself very well. I do get along when I’m in
groups with others. I love to solve problems when it comes to others. I always find
myself offering my help because I want to solve everything.
Yes I was only interested in Hospitalist, lawyer and principal job offers. I think I
would be very good at any of those three jobs. Yes I researched them all. Those
positions are very demanding positions that I can see myself working without any
problems. I like challenging jobs.
I looked up the Surgical Technician career. I found out that their job is very busy
they make an ok salary but they are really going to be on their feet a lot assisting
doctors during surgeries. They will basically be the doctor’s right hand man so to
say in the operation room. They too have to hold equipment feel around in a
patient’s body when asked to by the doctor. It’s a very interesting job.
I didn’t check out any of the websites but I did learn a lot about my personality
and how I am also fit for jobs that I never even considered looking into. If
anything were to change with me going to school to be a doctor I would consider
trying out of the careers that were picked for me to work on this project. All three
options make nice salaries.
My educational Career goal is to finish the RN program in spring 2013 graduate,
then transfer to Nova and Graduate from the PA program graduate with my
bachelors and continue my education in medical school. Finally I will graduate
from medical school and specialize in the orthopedic field. This project didn’t
make me change my current plans, but if something was to change in my plan and
I’m unable to do what I planned then yes I would definitely look into one of the
three career choices from this project.
