... The changing of command, a ceremony done annually at the final formation of the NJ 2000-1 Phoenix Firebirds in June. Where a special group of 6 is selected to lead the squadron in the following year. As I walked up and was handed my new Cadet Chief Master Sergeant ranks I could not believe it. This experience taught me that hard work and never quitting will always lead to marvelous things. I learned many things about myself throughout the 3 years of working hard. If I put my mind to anything I could get it done. As I prepare to embark on a journey to pursue my dreams, I have realized my experiences and talents will guide me. The valuable traits that I have gained during my duration at the Firebirds Squadron are invaluable. Time management to leadership skills that I have applied in the real world, being in charge of a great deal of cadets. In college managing time will be of the essence to be able to balance a social life with studying and classes. Once in college, I plan to enroll in AFROTC to continue my pursuit of becoming an officer in the United States Military. A lifelong dream that determination will make true. To push beyond my limits and make sure that I will ensure a good future for myself. To serve my country and become part of a lifelong bond of soldiers. As a leader in Junior ROTC I bear the responsibility of making sure my deadlines and all the work is complete and in order. This will ensure everything is complete to go up the Chain Of Command. Becoming a...

...After looking at all my options and speaking to some members of the chemistry department and certain members of my family I have decided that I want to pursue a PhD in Analytical Chemistry before pursuing a career in the pharmaceutical industry. Ever since I had a small amount of knowledge in chemistry I wanted to use my knowledge to help people. I did this by tutoring in high school, then my friends who struggled in classes I have taken here, but I feel a need to do more. I believe this path will allow me to help as many people as I possibly can by potentially saving thousands of lives with a new drug I help discover. Receiving a scholarship would really help me as I have taken out tens of thousands of dollars in student loans due to receiving no financial support from my family. Anything I can receive to help lessen this financial burden would allow me to stay focused on graduate school ensuring I receive the best education I can. Neither intelligence...

...about the Math-to-Industry program! I have a diverse mathematical background, but not many ideas about industrial career opportunities. I’d like to use the boot camp to hone my industrial skills, and learn more about mathematical career areas. In my graduate mathematics career I have focused most heavily on topology and geometric group theory. These are fascinating subjects full of beautiful ideas, but many of their applications are to other branches of pure mathematics. So I am very excited to work on the industrial inspired projects at the boot camp, since I hope it will show me what pieces of my mathematical training translate best to applied projects in industry. I enjoy programming, but my strongest programming skills are in Sage, a python based mathematics software system, and Matlab. I think this puts me in a strong position to learn other programming languages, and I would like to use opportunities like the boot camp projects to hone skills with more common industrially used languages. I would also benefit heavily from training in data analysis, since my background is most limited in statistics. The biggest benefit of the boot camp to me might be investigating some of the industries that are interested in hiring mathematicians. I want to hear perspectives both from industry scientists and my fellow boot camp attendees. By far the top goal for my career is to continue learning. If I can learn new math, learn new applications of old math, or use math to help a company...

...wanted to learn how to play it. Since that moment, my passion has only progressed. The first time I performed, I stepped up on stage with my small guitar and managed to strum out the only 2 chords I know. A few years later I had the ability to get on stage and have the choice as to which instrument I want to play. Now, I am focused on turning my passion into a career and majoring in music business and production at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. During the summer, I had the opportunity to go to Camp Electric for the third time. Camp Electric is located at Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, Tennessee, and is a worship and rock and roll music camp. The professional artists at camp teach individualized classes during the day based on your instrument track and then perform concerts at night. In the morning, the classes are larger and contain everyone in the same track, but in the afternoon the classes are split up based on skill level and future motives....

Different Stages of Career Development Process Or, Cycles of Career Development Process VI. Career Development I. Career: Meaning & Elements Definition of Career Career is a sequence of attitudes and behaviors associated with the series of job and work-related activities over a person's lifetime. Yet in another way, it may be defined as a succession of related jobs, arranged in hierarchical order, through which a person moves in an organization. As the literal definition of career focuses on an individually perceived sequence, to be more accurate, career may be either individual centered or organization-centered. Therefore, career is often defined separately as external career and internal career. External career refers to the objective categories used by society and organizations to describe the progression of steps through a given occupation, while internal career refers to the set of steps or stages which make up the individual's own concept of career progression within an occupation. For such two different approaches, in organizational context, career can be identified as an integrated pace of vertical and lateral movement in an occupation of an individual over his employment span. Important Elements of Career Analyzing the definitional context, it...

...Unit 4 and 5 Evaluate the purpose of different types of career guidance interviews Evaluate methodologies to explore the career guidance and development needs of clients Corney and Watts (1998) define information and advice as; ‘providing an immediate response to the needs of clients who present an enquiry or reveal a need that requires more than a straightforward information response. Advice is usually limited to helping with the interpretation of information and with meeting needs already clearly understood by the client…’ Advice and information is therefore concerned with meeting client’s presenting issues relating to information. The OECD (2004:10) definition of guidance is; ‘Career guidance refers to services and activities intended to assist individuals of any age, and at any point of their lives, to make educational, training and occupational choices and to manage their careers’. This reflects the variety of activities that may take place in supporting clients to move forward. Guidance is about helping clients to understand their own needs, set and review career goals, understand any barriers and to produce action plans. Hambly (2008; 16) refers to the iceberg analogy to explain the process of guidance. The top of the iceberg represents the clarifying and meeting of presented needs which is advice and information and the bottom of the iceberg is about exploring additional needs which is guidance. The guidance element may be about exploring high leverage...

...OTHER FACTORS INFLUENCING CAREER CHOICES Interests Career choice will also be influenced by your interests. Most students tell us that they would like an ‘interesting’ job. Interests are of course, very personal, and two people may be interested in the same activity for quite different reasons. A chess player might relish the company, the intellectual challenge, the competition, the elements of psychological warfare. So what do you mean by ‘interesting’? Think of a couple of activities - work, study or leisure that you have enjoyed. 1 2 What interested you? · Mental stimulation? · Using your abilities? · Sense of achievement? · Excitement? · What else? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

When conducting a Work Culture Results analysis there are certain competencies that are necessary, each of the competencies involved is important in developing a Career Building Plan, but the level of significance varies between individuals.
