Fall 2013 Career Project
The career project will consist of four parts and will account for 15% of the overall grade for this course. Please make sure you are getting each part done and turned in by the designated due date.
PART 1 – Take a screen shot of your progress on the FOCUS 2 Career Assessment and e-mail it to me at amy.axtell@sjcd.edu
PART 2 – Based on your results, or your desires, create a business card that you would give me ten years in the future. What job will you be doing? What company will you be working for? Where will your office be? (You are not lying, you are prematurely telling the truth!)
PART 3 – Find a job posting for the position you wish to hold in the future and then write a paper discussing what you will need to do to get this job. What goals (short term and long term) will you need to set for yourself to achieve this dream? What education will you need for the job? What skills do you need to acquire before you can be successful in this career? Are there any surprises with the job?
PART 4 – Create a Power Point presentation explaining your career of choice to the class. This presentation should be at least five slides. You will present this to the class, so be sure you have rehearsed what you plan to say. 1. The job title 2. A picture of someone in this field 3. Job expectations and anything else interesting about the job 4. The hard skills necessary to get the job 5. The soft skills necessary to keep the job or advance in the field
*** Extra credit if you interview someone in the field and summarize that interaction
