O. Net Search Case Study

Improved Essays
From exploring both websites on job openings and salary information nothing specifically stood out to me, especially in the job search criteria. The only interesting tool I enjoyed especially with the O*Net search was the job-opening web along with wages and employment trends. The Job-opening web option allowed me to discover over 70 jobs in Pennsylvania within the title of Mental Health Counselor. I also enjoyed how after an individual searched for a certain career occupation, and clicked on a specific job title, the website would forward them to the specific job company which obtain multiple information such as summary of the job position, minimum qualifications and requirements along with pay, and schedule type. Due to this, I personality believe that this is an extremely useful tool, allowing individuals to explore multiple job openings in their area and seek out different companies that need employees. …show more content…
To be completely honest I was not too surprise to find out their exact calculations for highest amount of pay which is $64,250 in Pennsylvania and a grand total throughout the USA of $68,790. However I was extremely baffled when I found that individuals with a mental health counseling degree could make less than $27,070, in which I acquired through O*Net. Another interesting feature O*Net offered was annual pay amount along with a median wage per hour, which is $20.13. Due to these statistics it made me really consider what exact job career I would want to acquire along with annual pay. I would also like to consider more research on what exact job occupations with a well paying salary I could discover with a mental health counseling

    Introduction In this individual discussion post, a review of the merger of Yinscape and Yanngsearch is explored to create and share a vision of the shape and spirit of this newly-merged, cross-national company. Vision looks forward to desired outcomes and often looks to growth opportunities and therefore implies a need for leadership (Calland, 2015).

As the organizational future likely includes transformational change, delivery of the vision shortly after acquisition and in advance of any actual changes is considered indispensable (Jick & Peiperl, 2011, p. 113).…

    The unemployment rate more than doubled, from less than 5 percent to 10 percent” (Weinberg, 2013). Furthermore, although lower paid majors such as education, arts, and psychology have an inferior redundancy rate, recent studies have shown that it takes longer for those college major graduates to achieve their prime earning potential.

This is just another factor future students should consider. By determining future salary opportunities, it is simpler for…
