Rachael’s Answer

Hi Cheyenne,

I would suggest finding someone within the field to inquiry with/interview in order to get a first-hand perspective of what that line of work is like. You can start with your network (family, friends, relatives, etc.). If someone in your network in not within the field of interest, perhaps someone in their network is. If you are interested after speaking with them I would suggest you ask to shadow within that field in order to get an idea of the day to day is like. A major can lead to many different career paths, I would suggest you complete as many different internships as possible throughout your college career to get insight into each to determine which you like most.

Best of luck.

Rachael recommends the following next steps:

Utilize your network to find professional in the field
Inquiry with a professional in the field
Shadow a professional in the field
Intern a at a company pertaining to the career of choice

Sachin’s Answer

Hi Rachael,
I would recommend that you check our profiles of people on LinkedIn - who are doing what you think you might like (professionally).
Then, just drop them a mail - you can ask them the questions you have in your mind - and also ask them if they can spare some time to talk.

I'm sure someone will respond. People are helpful. :)

Paul’s Answer

Agree with previous answers (reach out to people on linked in & friends). Networking it everything! Talk to anyone in the industry you can. It never hurts to get different opinions and point of views. You may find someone that does what you would love to do or they do something you would hate to have to do. IT's all good info and helps you start to get a better feel for what is out there and what might or might not interest you. I will repeat part of Sachin's response: "I would recommend that you check our profiles of people on LinkedIn "
