Career Exploration

Career Exploration can help you make a decision about what kind of job or career you would like to pursue, especially if you have not worked before, have not worked in a long time, or know that you want or need to go into a different kind of work from what you have done before. Career Exploration can happen in a variety of ways, including job site visits or tours, job shadowing, research on the internet and interviewing staff at different businesses.

When you are involved in Career Exploration, you can find out “what it takes” to do different kinds of jobs, what the benefits might be and what next steps you will need to take to prepare for a career in a job that interests you.

Job Shadowing
Job Shadowing involves spending time observing and maybe even trying out duties for a specific job that interests you. Goodwill staff will help arrange job shadowing opportunities. A job shadow might last an hour or an entire shift.
