IDENTIFICATION OF CAREER PATH/ EXPOSURE AND

INCLINATIOM

1. Self-Assessment: Reflect on your interests, strengths, values, and skills. Consider


what energizes you, what you excel at, and what aligns with your core values. Self-
assessment tools and career quizzes can provide insights and help you discover
potential career paths.
2. Research and Exploration: Conduct thorough research on different industries, job
roles, and professions that align with your interests. Use online resources, career
websites, job descriptions, and professional networks to gather information.
Attend career fairs, informational interviews, or shadow professionals to gain
firsthand exposure.
3. Networking: Build connections with professionals working in fields that interest
you. Engage in informational interviews, join relevant industry groups or
associations, and attend networking events. These interactions can offer valuable
insights, advice, and potential mentorship opportunities.
4. Internships and Volunteering: Seek internships, part-time jobs, or volunteer
positions in industries or roles you are curious about. This hands-on experience can
provide valuable exposure, help you assess your compatibility with a particular
field, and expand your network.
5. Skill Development: Identify the skills required for your target career paths and
focus on developing them. Take relevant courses, participate in workshops or
training programs, or pursue certifications. Developing in-demand skills enhances
your marketability and opens doors to more opportunities.
6. Experimentation and Flexibility: Be open to trying new things and exploring
different paths. Sometimes, you may need to experiment with various roles or
industries before finding the right fit. Remain flexible and adaptable throughout
the process.
7. Seek Guidance: Consider seeking guidance from career counselors or mentors who
can provide objective advice and support. They can help you navigate the
exploration process, clarify your goals, and offer insights based on their experience.
Remember, career paths are often not linear, and it's normal to explore different options.
The key is to remain open-minded, embrace learning opportunities, and continuously
evaluate and refine your career direction based on your exposure and inclinations.
