Self-Assessment
Self-assessment and goal-setting are important to the job search. Knowing who you are and what you want keeps your energies focused and prepares you to take advantage of every opportunity presented.
Exploring: Lifelong Career Management
Your first job isn't likely your last job. In fact, most experts estimate first job stay to be around three years. So, even if you land your first job with little stress and preparation, rest assured that chances are good that you will go through the search process at several points in your life. Learn the process. It begins with you.
Career Resources
Use many resources to learn about careers that interest you.
- In addition to the career resources Web sites that provide specific information on employers and careers, we encourage you to use career fairs, networking, professional associations and CAFNR Connections.
- Conduct informational interviews and spend some time shadowing professionals to get an idea of what a particular career or company environment is like.
