1. First, we will watch a video recommended by the counseling department: CEOs Share Career Advice and Opportunities
2. Exploration of Specific Occupations
Open and make a copy to answer. You need to be logged into your gmail account for this to occur. This will be done using CIS from the information on your specific job.
You will further do a handout: Career Research WS
3. Make sure you created a doc called Skills_Venn_Diagram and label both sides. On the left side it should be labeled "My Skills" and the right side the job you are comparing it with. Insert the object/circles and go from there.
4. Today or next period, depending on time, we will explore what it will take to live on a fixed budget.
We may start the "Will My Job Support Me?" Follow the slide tutorial found in: a.k.a Salary Based Budgeting
Complete a monthly budget for a minimum wage earner. You will select one of the following jobs and look up the beginning annual wage on slide 3/Step 2 of the tutorial: waiter/waitress/dishwasher; lawn mower, babysitter/ child care worker, barista, retail clerk, gas station attendant, laborer.
Go to the last slide and do the "Reflection". Your choice of career in this case was made for you....a minimum wage job at $11.25!
Pre-test for Resumes.
Continuing:
Handout on "Uncover your Skills, Abilities, and Special Talents". This will be used in conjunction with your resume.
