Happy New Year

New year. New opportunities.

Maybe this is the year to get to know yourself better. We can help with that.  Our card sort might be just the place to start. These brightly colored cards are in the categories of:
Interests – what do you think about, talk with your friends about, read about?
Skills—what do you do well. . .and also enjoy?
Values—what motivates you to crawl out of bed in the morning to go to work? And, what makes you happy when you are at your job?
Traits—how do you describe yourself?
After spending an hour with one of our counselors – and the card sort—you will know your Holland Code which is a great resource in identifying majors and careers that are a match for your personality. You also walk away with a BIG (but, not too big) color coded chart to serve as a reminder of your Holland Code and themes to use in your career exploration.
Other students have said: “This was fun. It was kind of an eye opener.”  “I liked it.  It helped me figure out who I am. I think you get stuck in what you do—this helped me remember “oh, I do like that”.  “This was good. It gave me some self confidence.”
So. . .what are you waiting for? Call today and schedule an appointment with Career Services.
Hope to see you soon!
