How has researching your future career changed or affirmed your perspective on your current career goals?
stepladder [879]

Here is a sample of how researching my future career has influenced my perspective of my current career goals:

  • I have always liked the idea of being a Civil Engineer but my research on this career goal shows that this job is demanding and might require that I work on buildings with tall heights. I have a fear of heights, so I have decided to change this career goal to being a Physicist.

Proper research on our intended careers can reveal aspects of it that do not really fit into our expectations or capabilities.

My online and offline research on the duties of Civil Engineers entailed revealed that they most times had to ascend heights where they worked on structures.

My fear of heights dissuaded me from pursuing this career. So, I have decided to rather be a laboratory Physicist.
