Here recently, I have been putting some thought into what career I should go with. In our ELA class, I have been searching for possibilities on CFNC.org. One of my goals for this paper if finding a suitable job for me. A second goal I have is being able to find a nice college that has a degree in my career. Finally, I hope my paper will help make the decision easier for me.
My Basic Skills Survey showed my strongest areas were Learning strategies, Reading Comprehension, and Writing. My lowest areas were Monitoring, Active Learning, and Critical Thinking. The jobs that correspond with my strong and weak spots were honestly not what I was expecting and kind of surprised me. Some jobs it suggested for my strong areas were Jeweler and Counter/Rental …show more content…
This survey was more helpful because it asked about things that I enjoy, then applied my answers to jobs that correspond with my answers. The Career Cluster Survey showed I would work well in Arts, Audio-Video Technology and Communications. My second best was Human Services and my third was Hospitality and Tourism. My lowest points were Business, Management and Administration, Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources and Transportation, Distribution and Logistics. After I spent some time looking in the career clusters I was strong in, I found a few that spark my interest. I believe I found my dream job in the Arts, Audio-Video Technology and Communications.
The career I have chosen is Acting. Long story short, Actors act. They put themselves into the shoes or the characters and became completely immersed in their world. I think being able to become a different person that lives another life in a different world is what drew me into wanting to act. Actors are mostly considered self-employed, but each has an agent who helps them get auditions.
Actors, Directors, and Producers hold around 69,000 jobs in Motion Pictures, Stage Plays, Television and Radio and typically make $42,307 Average Annual Wage, although hourly wages depend on the movie/ tv show/ …show more content…
Those colleges are Campbell University, Elon University, Greensboro College, Guilford College, and University of North Carolina at Greensboro. All of these are great colleges, but I would want to get into University of North Carolina at Greensboro the most. UNCG offers a Bachelor’s Degree in acting. To get this degree I will have to attend UNCG for four years. Since UNCG is in Greensboro and I live in Winston-Salem, I will probably just continue living at home. The In-State annual tuition is $7,029. As for paying for the tuition, my mom and dad have been saving up money since my brothers were born, but they decided not to go to college so, I get to use that money and we have continuously been saving more money since then. Of course, I would get a job myself to get some more money for stuff like food, clothes, bills and all of the basic living
