What are some actions or thoughts that defined you'r career?

50-70% of students change their majors at least once. Among 2,134 workers, 32% said they have never worked in a field related to their major. I was wondering, what lead you to choose your career and how are you different from the next person in the same career? #career #choices

I don't want to get into a profession where I don't like the environment I'm working in. I rather know what it feels like before I enter the profession.

How should you go about getting a job after graduation if you have no work experience?

You can't include work experience/history or applications or resumes if you don't have any, so what do you do instead? How does this affect your application process when you're looking for a career?

When transferring, do colleges and universities look favorably when you belong to multiple organizations or clubs or it is less important for a transfer student.
