Try It—Decide If You Like It
How can you decide what career is for you? You have lots of decisions to make. One of the best ways to help you make these important career decisions is to ask your counselor to arrange a work-related "job shadow" or "internship" for you. Many of the companies in the Cedar Rapids business community are more than willing to be your host.
Job
shadows and internships are arranged by putting four important people
together:
- YOU (the student);
- The person at your school who works with students in school-to-career activities such as your counselor, or career development coordinator;
- The business that will host you; and
- The Workplace Learning Connection.
YOU need to talk to the person at your school who will know exactly what to do!
