Things I Can Do to Explore My Career

I am interested in the Criminal Justice field.  One thing I can do is go the Criminal Justice office in Room D309.  There, I could go ask question about my career. I can ask what kind of classes I need and what kind of websites I can check out that have good information about my career.

Secondly, I can go talk to someone that has experience on my career and ask them what I can do to start on the path to my career. I could go talk to people that is in the criminal justice on campus. I could also stop by a police precinct and ask some questions.

Finally, I can research about my career by myself and see if I really want to be a police officer. I can do this by volunteering in a police precinct or doing an internship.

To Wear or Not To Wear?: Tips on dressing for success

So, the first step is over. You finished filling out the application for the job; listing all of your work experience, answering numerous questions about your work ethic on an online questionnaire, and you even polished up your hand dandy resume! After restless nights of worrying, you finally get a call saying they would love to have you come in for an interview: now what? First, don't panic ! Finding an appropriate outfit can be intimidating, but with the help of Google it is possible. Second, the outfit you should wear is based on what type of position you are going for or what your potential company is.
