Career Opportunities

Grocery Store Cashier
Handling cash is oh-so-
20th-century. In fact, all
jobs dealing with paper
money, including bank
tellers and toll booth
operators, could be
obsolete in two decades,
as we rely more on credit
and digital money

Film Processor
If you want to stick with
old-fashioned
photography, better build
your own darkroom. Your
neighborhood photo store
will be going digital, or
going out of business.

CD Store Manager Why browse for CD's at Tower Records when you can search for MP3's online? Music producers are going digital, and retailers must adjust as well. Compact discs don't have the artistic flair of old records, so they won't have the same vintage cachet either.
Jobs That Will
Disappear In 20 Years!!!
Union Organizer Union organizers and leaders may soon disappear, says futurist Alvin Toffler, since they show no sign of reversing their 20-year membership decline. "The labor movement has not come to terms with the knowledge economy at all," Toffler says.

Miner
Bacteria like Thiobacillus
ferooxidans can be used
to extract metal from ore.
If there are further
advances in the science
of biomining, expect the
guys with coal-darkened
faces to take above-
ground occupations.

Construction Worker Much construction work is still completed by hand. But three-dimensional printing may change that, says futurist Joel Barker. Instead of simply printing one layer of ink on paper, stereo lithographic printers spit out multiple layers of material to make 3D structures. Eventually, Barker says, these could be used to construct houses on a mass scale.

Fighter Pilot
Why send a man into
combat when you can
send a machine? While
we're still far away from
using robots as front-line
troops, drones are taking
over some manned flight
missions .
Jobs That Will

Call Center Representative Be careful what you wish for. Many people have fantasized, while on hold, about an end to call centers. But if they do disappear, they're likely to be replaced with more automation, not more personal customer service.

Oil Wildcatter
We won't need new
sources of oil when
our economy runs on
hydrogen, solar
power, wind and
manure.

Evaluate Your Choices We have already discussed the decision-making process in
previous chapters.
We have also taken a close look at our personal values and
resources.
RESOURCES- things used for help and support.
EVALUATION- comparing sets of data to rank
them and determine the best choice. (RIASEC code,
Career Cluster, DATA PPL THINGS, COLLEGEBOARD.ORG)
PERSONAL CAREER PROFILE- chart to compare
things about yourself and things you learn about
careers.
Then looking at them side by side and coming up with a good choice..
Narrowing the choices to a few “winners” involves comparing your personal data with the career information.

EVALUATING YOUR CHOICES
THE 6 STEPS IN EVALUATING YOUR PERSONAL
CAREER PROFILE
Always look at these areas when evaluating a career:
1. VALUES---Does this career match up well with my values?
2 . INTERESTS VERSUS RESPONSIBILITIES- Will the day-to-day responsibilities interest me?
Will I be good at them?
3. PERSONALITY---Will be happy with the work environment and hours?
4--DATA-PEOPLE-THINGSDo the data-people-things requirements of this career match up well with my own preferences?
5. SKILLS and APTITUDES---Do I have the skills I need for this career—or the aptitudes to develop them?
6. EDUCATION / TRAINING---Am I willing to get the education and training necessary for this career.
You should complete a personal career profile form for each career choice you have identified for yourself.
16
YOUR CAREER PLAN
Planning your course of action is critical in finding your career.
PROCRASTINATE- put off doing or deciding
about something.
PRIORITIZE- put tasks in order of importance.
INDIVIDUAL CAREER PLAN- course of action
for planning your career. (PICK H.S.
CLASSES, PICK COLLEGE MAJOR,PICK
COLLEGE, VOLUNTEER, RESEARCH, ETC) You need to make some manageable goals.
This will increase your chances to achieve your goals.
You need to establish a goal to manage your High School courses
related to your career area.
One way to help you make a career decision is to visualize how
the career choice will affect your lifestyle.
17
YOUR PLAN OF ACTION GOALS: 4 STEP PROCESS Having your goals in a manageable time frame will help
you establish them. WRITE DOWN 1 GOAL FOR
EACH AREA
1. Short-Term Goal- (1 year) might include taking specific H.S.
classes that will help guide you to your future career.
2. Medium-Term Goal- (2 years) part-time job, volunteer or
intern for a company or organization.
3. Long-Term Goal- (5 years) In college, military or working.
4. Ultimate Goals- (10 years)In your career or working on
doctorate, planning family, etc..
Be Specific about each of your goals.
Be realistic about your abilities, skills, interests, and personality
traits when you set your future goals. 18
YOUR PLAN OF ACTION
A good first step in planning:
IDENTIFY H.S. COURSES RELATED TO A SPECIFIC CAREER CHOICE
GRADUATION PLAN- selected High School courses that guide you towards your career choices. (Plan of study on MO CONNECTIONS)
