Nancy’s Answer
Hi, Jose,
I was not sure what career I wanted until I went to college. I knew I liked biology. When I got to college I took psychology and loved it more. I also went to the career center to take interest tests and to research jobs and what they pay to figure things out.
I decided to be a counselor and got a master’s degree. In my first job I met with troubled youth and counseled them and their parents. There was also paperwork daily. Communication skills are very important in this field.
