As you combine knowledge of your work needs and desires with information on career fields, you can begin to identify specific career options for further exploration.
Research is the key to exploring career possibilities.
Invest the time necessary to explore all the career options of interest to you. Be sure to focus on the facts about careers and occupations, not only on your emotional reactions. Be aware of your own negative stereotypes about certain careers or industries, as well as the tendency to glamorize others. For help in beginning your research and finding information sources, the Reference Desk of your local library can be an excellent resource.
