SELF-ASSESSMENT

QUESTIONS FOR YOU:

Are you uncertain about which major would be the best "fit" for you?

Have you selected a major or currently thinking about a field of interest but wondering how it can be directly and indirectly applied to a career?

Are you looking to confirm your beliefs that you should grow up and become a Geologist like your Uncle Buck?

Have you started taking classes in your major or field of interest and found that it's not what you expected?

If you answered "yes" to any one of the questions above, maybe it's time to schedule an appointment with Career Services, GSU 309, to discuss the resources available to assist you, including assessment tools

ASSESSMENT TOOLS CAN HELP YOU :

Identify your strengths and weaknesses - what you do well and what you could do better

Pinpoint your interests and match them with your strengths

Clarify your values, specifically what matters to you - working in teams or independently, job growth, salary..

Look at the overlap among your strengths, interests, and values to identify corresponding majors

Gain structure and direction - identifying careers/ majors that might suit you and are worth further     exploration
