This journal assignment requires you to research TWO occupations that you are interested in pursuing (or perhaps are already involved in). The research involves finding information about working conditions, employment outlook, qualifications, and earnings. After reading the relevant information, please explain why you were initially interested in the occupation and then what influence the research had upon that interest.
· What aspects of your research confirmed what you already knew?
· Was there any new information that helped you understand the occupation?
· Did the research change your desire, for better or worse, to pursue that occupation?
Do NOT summarize the information!!
Please research your occupations at the following website:
Under the heading: Publications, you will find a link to the Occupational Outlook Handbook

Here is the direct link to the search index: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ooh_index.htm
