A career within the criminal justice field that I find interesting and would like to pursue would be a career as a deputy within the United States Marshal Service. The primary responsibilities and duties of a deputy U.S. marshal include providing protective services for judicial officers such as judges, attorneys and jurors; transporting prisoners ; conducting fugitive investigations such as locating and apprehending wanted criminals; tactical operations including special missions involving homeland security or national emergencies; asset forfeiture which consist of managing and disposing of seized and forfeited properties acquired by criminals through illegal activities; and witness security which includes ensuring the safety of witnesses who are testifying for the government in cases involving organized crime and other significant criminal activities. The work of a deputy U.S. marshal often involves dangerous situations and can be stressful as they may be subject to witness accid...

   Wh en assessing my abilities and interests I noticed there was a common theme which actually helped me realize and understand my main career goal. Although I am focused on finding a career that allows me to help my community and gain more knowledge and expertise, my ultimate goal, in all honesty, is find a career that allows me to be financially comfortable. Many might think this to be selfish and materialistic, but there are reasons why I am so focused on obtaining this goal. I grew up in a low income family and throughout my life I’ve always had to struggle financially. Where other kids dream of becoming an artist or doctor one day, my goals have always been a little different. Out of financial struggle and lack of stability growing up, my dream was just to make sure that one day I would not have to worry about money. I dreamed of being able to provide for my family, having a decent home, putting my kids through school, all while not having to live a paycheck to payche...

Networking is one of the best ways to gain an advantage when it comes to job seeking but it does also give people a better understanding of the world around them. One thing you can do is to look up clubs at Kingsborough. You can meet other people that are passionate about the subject you like, for example the Film Club. Meeting other students in this club and professors can lead to being more informed. Possible connections to the industry can open up, for example, a fellow student that knows about filming equipments and can give you tips on how to maximize the use of the equipments. Professor might have friends in this profession and can help you out in talking to them about internships or insightful pointers. By the end you will get a clear view in how things work if not informed. Another way to network is by talking to your counselors, in my experience it has help me a lot when it came to knowing more about my academic outlook and how to get to where I want to be. By talking...

To make a good resume the one thing you should always do is know who you are on paper. List your name in bold letters, put down your current address, phone number you are more accessible to and a professional email address that bares your name only. Write down your current school and if still attending post your graduation date. Put down your past employment in chronological order and task given in your former job, make sure to put down correct work experience information as the employer might background check it and if any information is not correct it will look bad and make your prospect of getting the job lower.   Put down skills that suits the job you’re currently looking for if set skills you indeed have. Everything in your resume should fit what you think the employer is looking for as best as possible. Write down everything you did in your past jobs even if it was minimal and unimportant in your mind. Cover letter might not be needed but some employer might require yo...

Choosing a career is not a simple task. When choosing a career you are choosing what you see yourself doing in the future, for me this task was not as simple as I thought it was. Before you decide what to choose make sure you figure yourself out first. Find what you put your priorities at, for example I value creative and artistic freedom. Some might value financial gains more and seek a career where pay is higher. In my path to choosing a career I looked at what I enjoy and am passionate about, this is how I came to the conclusion to seek a career in the video game industry, where my value of being creative and artistic is met. After choosing your career of choice its best to seek other careers that interest you, it is never a bad thing to seek other potential career paths as there is always the chance of you changing your mind at any curtain point in the process. I made sure to look up information on my career of choice and how to get there. Make sure to look up what degrees y...
