Personal Career Questions - Answered

I decided to answer some personal questions about myself and my own career goals, as a recent college graduate myself. I would also like to provide some advice for those in similar situations.

1. What profession would you like to try?
I would love to be a psychologist. I was a psychology major, and I'd really like to apply that to something for a career. I would recommend doing something that you feel most comfortable with, even if it has nothing to do with what you majored in.

2. What was your best interview experience like?
My best interview experience was actually recently. The employer (now my boss) was actually really nice and very polite. I was ready for all the questions, and the whole situation was completely comfortable. If you'd like a similar experience, I'd recommend just remaining calm and collected. Don't stress over it - you'll do fine if you remain professional.

3. Where do you hope to be in five years?
In five years, I would love to be married and starting a family. While doing this, I'd like to maintain a career. I don't want to stop working to have my family, and I'm sure that I can do it. Ambition is the key.

4. What would a movie about your life be called and who would play you?
Hmm... I'm not exactly sure what I would call the a movie about me. I'm sure I could thing of something creative on the spot though. I'd really like Scarlett Johansson to play me, but if she couldn't , I'd choose Evan Rachel Wood.

5. What's your dream job and is it in line with your major?
My dream job is to be an elementary school teacher. As a psychology major, it isn't directly in line with being a teacher, but it is related. I most likely will not become a teacher, just because it requires a certain amount of patience that I don't believe I have.

6. What did you like about the best manager/boss you’ve had?
I've had a couple of really good bosses and managers, and they've all been nothing but professional with me. They've made me feel comfortable at work, all the while maintaining a professional relationship with me.

7. What are you most passionate about?
I'm most passionate about my education. My favorite thing to always remember is that education is the one thing that nobody can ever take away from you. Education is the one thing that you will always have. Educate yourself!
