Choosing the right career for teenagers
Asking the right questions
How do I want to live my life? --> areas of interes
Who you want to be? hardly helpful to looking for a career
Who am I? find out their dislikes and likes
What do I have to give? their unique set of skills and interests, find a place in society
Education and interests
interest in subjects you really like and find a career in those fields
find a career path in a subject which you not like, just some interesting topics and find a career in these topics
Being realistic
thinking what are you willing to do can save you from a wrong career
parents should not push their children in a career they want because they think thats the best for the child, just the child can know waht it really wants
some are interesting, but it can be really hard to find a way to live with that
having a back-up plan for difficult careers
Exploration
volunteering, exracurricular activites can give a taste for some fields
looks good on college applications to have some activities you have done before in that field
reasearch online and talk to people to get information
school counsellors can also help and give you interesting advice because they do that for many years
aptitude tests
