The path to a successful career is rooted in understanding yourself, your interests, motives, preferences, skills, and opportunities. And, of course, we all have our likes and dislikes — especially at work! So how do you make informed decisions without exposure to a broad set of occupational opportunities? How do your interests and preferences relate to occupations available? And how should you learn and be prepared for future work that will interest you?
