Advice on picking a career?

Your list of likes and dislikes does not narrow the career fields available to you. There are lots of great careers that meet your criteria so in order to pick a major in college you should narrow down a bit. You have a great start in your analysis in that you are looking at both personality traits and aptitude. One recommendation is to take several of the free online personality and aptitude tests which will give some ideas of which career fields suit you best. Take several on different days and compare the results. Look for trends that point toward a field of study that interests you, Once you narrow it down talk to someone in that career field to find out what it really like. Remember there are a plethora of jobs in any given discipline so the more people you talk to the better idea you will have of the type of work involved. Many jobs in social work and psychology are personally rewarding but do not pay that well and my place you in a bad environment. I would definitely do some research before majoring psychology. If you like people and are a hand on person, you may want to try sales which would require a business degree. Medical and pharmaceuticals would be my first choice. The work is usually not that stressful and there are a lot of perks, plus making really good money. Sales is not for everyone, but if you can handle sales you can handle anything. Good luck The PracticaL Mentor.
