Interesting Department of Labor 2008 lists

#1 Postby JonathanBelles » Sun Oct 11, 2009 10:05 pm

I just saw this story on Yahoo, so I pulled it up, and played with it.

I will reference Meteorology for this topic since many of you are meteorologists (to-be). The site is http://online.onetcenter.org/link/summary/19-2021.00 . This site breaks down every little aspect of everything that I could ever ask for.

*First of all, I noticed that they lumped Atmospherical Scientists together with Space Scientists, which was quite odd to me until I read down the list.
*I noticed it was labeled a green job, which was really cool for me.
*There was a LOT of things on these lists that I never thought about, but I was completely enthused about.
*As I was going through this list I was finding more and more that I liked about the occupation. It sounded so much like me with every bullet.
* The work context section offered some great questions to ask myself and see if I truly wanted to be in this area.
*The interest section seemed to be a 100% description of who I was.

I was amazed at how much detail this report had, and I would fully encourage everyone find their careers or careers to be and look into the details tab. It was a very interesting read!

For other Occupations go to http://online.onetcenter.org/find/ and type in your career into the keyword box (top left).
