Career Profiles & Occupational Information

Online Career Research

Interested in a particular job but not REALLY sure what it involves? From Accounting to Zoology, explore career possibilities using a range of valuable online resources such as the Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) and O*NET. These sites offer excellent information in concise and easy to use formats.

Access these career exploration sites using the TCDC & FHG Library Careers Research Guide:

Talk to People to Research Careers

Another great way to research careers is by doing an Information Interview. Rather than just read about careers online, you can TALK to people who have jobs that interest you and interview them for information, to learn more about the job and whether or not this is the type of job you want to pursue.
