Career Profile Assignment
Part One – Self-Assessments
Based on the Jung Typology Test my 4-letter “type” is: E (1%) N (56%) T (1%) J (16%)
Based on the Interest Profiler my top TWO interest areas are:
1. Marginal preference of intuition over sensing
2. The others seem to be relatively even.
THREE careers that match my interest are:
1. Aerospace Engineering
2. Philosophy
3. Business
The career that I am most interested in learning more about is:
Aerospace Engineering
Part Two – Research
Aerospace Engineering is a subset of Mechanical engineering focusing on aerospace technologies. Aerospace engineers require at least a bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering, or a related engineering field. Nationally

The interest profiler returned a result of Investigative (27) and Realistic (7); the work interest sorter returned a priority for achievement and relationships. These relate well to many careers in science and engineering, but aerospace engineering is the career I am pursuing. I agree with the results as, after many years of practicing mindfulness and efficiency in all things, I know myself very well. Aerospace engineering is my dream career. I have always been fascinated with space and the future of the human race, and when I was younger I had wanted to be an astronaut. Today, my interest in this field is mainly to ensure the survival of humanity in the face of any potential extinction event. Sustainability practices necessary for survival in such a hostile environment as space could be applied to many situations here on earth. As well, a sustainable colony on another world in our star system could prevent the extinction of mankind if earth were to become uninhabitable due to unforeseen events. This is all hypothetical, of course, but precautions must be taken to preserve our culture and our
The career I chose is a secondary education teacher. More commonly referred to as a highschool teacher. A highschool teacher teaches grades 9th-12th and generally focuses in one subject area. High school teachers help prepare students for life after graduation. They teach academic lessons and various skills that students will need to attend college and to enter the job market (“U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics”). I chose this career because I want to be able to make a difference in young people’s lives and help shape them into good people. “I know that I have a huge impact on my students not just now, but for the rest of their lives,” says Linda Shelly, a high school math teacher in Glendale, arizona. “Seeing them rise to the challenge gives me great pride.” (“Teaching For a Living: Career Outlook”).
There comes a time where everyone must make up their minds on what they want to do in life. Some may find it at a young age, while others figure it out as they grow and enter college. Imagine a loved one coming to visit. The wait always feels like forever. Knowing that they would be coming by plane it would only be more amazing if the time spent waiting could be less, as well as knowing the ride is safe. As the plane descends into the runway ones heart begins to race with excitement. They enter the airport and is greeted with a warm hug. This is the story of how I found my love for air and spacecraft. Aerospace engineering is the trade that includes the designing and manufacturing of aircraft and space craft. To become an aerospace engineer
When i grow older I want to be a Aerospace Engineer because I have a thing for anything that involves anything that flies. Aerospace engineers work in industries to design and build aircraft,spacecraft,etc. They are primarily involved in manufacturing,design, and development. In order to be an aerospace engineer you will require a bachelor’s degree or anything related to aerospace engineering. It is important to understand the education or training requirements,skills or talents needed, salary and benefits offered, and the duties for a particular career when making this decision. (u.s. Bureau of Labor statistics.)
When I was young I wanted to become a teacher; however, that all changed throughout the years. What had motivated me to become a teacher was all the supplies they had like the whiteboards, the markers, and the construction paper. It seemed fun and interesting to me to have all the supplies. I no longer wish to become a teacher. As I grew older I realized that I wanted to do something that has me going to places, seeing new things, speaking with diverse individuals, and for that reason I chose to be involved in Real estate.
Some of the most prevalent disadvantages to an occupation in this field are the hours necessary. As a CPA with a large accounting firm I would expect a typical work week of 40 to 50 hours. But, during the tax season, January through April, it could be as many as 70 hours per week (S. Westfield, personal interview, August 1, 2008). Since I have already been employed within the accounting industry for some time now, my family and I are used to the long hours and fluctuation during busy times.
The career I chose to undertake as my profession is that of a mechanical engineer. Why do I want to become a mechanical engineer? Well, for starters, I would be able to design, build and possibly repair many various machines and other technologies that are complex. These technologies can range from being already in use on a global scale to new, futuristic designs that are highly technical. Also, this career includes being a sort of jack-of-all-trades, where I would possess knowledge in mathematics, physics, etc. Finally, this career offers me the chance to expand outside my immediate area since mechanical engineers are well desired around the globe as well.
“I feel sorry for the person who can't get genuinely excited about his work. Not only will he never be satisfied, but he will never achieve anything worthwhile” (Walter Chrysler). Deciding on what one wants to be in life can prove to be a demanding task. There are so many, yet limited, different opportunities in the world to have an excellent career and make a decent living while doing something one loves. It is limited because there are only a few specific career paths that someone could take to make good money. It is very difficult to make a fulfilling living being a garbage man. There are many different opportunities because, within these specific careers, there are usually various paths to take. Someone who has dreams to be a
In order for me to complete this career assessment paper, I initially took an Interest Inventory survey. Upon completing this process, it revealed that my personality profile score was (I, C, A). These three letters represented my strengths and interests in determining which career field would best suit me.
As learned in Occupations, completing a developmental profile can be beneficial in both, learning about a client and identifying their needs. Through identifying a client’s needs, occupational therapists can create appropriate interventions to assist the client with those needs. These interventions can be beneficial in improving a clients well-being and life balance.
When graduation started to come around, deciding what I wanted to for the rest of my life still wasn’t clear to me. I was looking for that one perfect career where I could support myself and not have to depend on anyone else financially. After getting frustrated and feeling like I wasn’t going to find what I wanted to do, my dad talked to me about physical therapy and told me what benefits would come out at the end when I was done with school. He talked to me about one of his cousins who is currently employed and how great she is doing.
What is next? Is the question that haunts adolescents throughout high school and college. Therefore, today I will offer information on possible job opportunities in a few foreign countries. Given the nature of this paper, the audience who find it useful will be limited; furthermore, this essay is designed to provide young Americans who are considering searching for employment overseas in Europe. Gross Domestic Product (GDP), “is the best way to measure a country's economy. GDP is the total value of everything produced by all the people and companies in the country” (Amadeo), so naturally GDP seemed to be the best choice for determining my countries of focus. I am going to talk about the two countries with the highest GDP out of the
In my career research report, I am going to be trying to accomplish some of my goals. I feel like it’s time to start planning for my future and what I want to do with it, so a main goal is to find a suitable career for me. I have already seen some amazing career opportunities for me to think about. Though I really hope I can get at least an A on my research paper and make sure I enjoy the whole process of doing this project.
It is appropriate for those over the age of fourteen, and focuses on the client’s interests with a vast amount of occupations, and includes recreational activities as well (Drummond, Sheperis, & Jones, 2015).The Strong Interest Inventory provides the client with their three highest general occupational themes, out of a possible of six, lists the top five highest and lowest areas of career interest (Drummond, Sheperis, & Jones, 2015).Furthermore, it provides the client with top vocations along with their personal “styles” such as leadership or type of work environment (Drummond, Sheperis, & Jones, 2015). I like this career assessment, because it is a good starting point with a client. Once I have the highest vocational choices, it would be easier to be able to provide direction to a client and to provide them with more information on some of the occupations they have the most interest
What is space what does it even mean? Aerospace Engineer help us find out what space is,by making ships that can go up and deeper into space to new planets and to see if there was life on those planets before.These people work in the world around us in the military,NASA and in air fields.These people get payed quite a bit to help make planes. This job does not require a college degree, but at least a high school degree. This job is fun, these people realize that many of people's lives are at stake.
Although it seems like Clint Eastwood was always interested in acting and directing, it turns out he was not. I’m not sure if the topic never crossed his mind but it started as a side job that turned into a major career. I noticed that once Clint started working with director Don Siegel, he only wanted to work with him. I wonder how much working with Siegel effected Eastwood’s career. I think that Eastwood helped Siegel get more directing jobs and Siegel helped Eastwood become a
