High School for me was a very interesting and this was where some of my greatest highs have been but as well as some of my greatest lows. Being a Varsity wrestler throughout my entire high school career brought on a lot of challenges that were difficult to over come but brought me a lot of growth and learning how to deal with time management, hard work, being a team player, as well as keeping me in good physical shape.

Now with this interview I am able to use this information to help me better find what I want to be when I graduate.

I found a ton of benefit because I was unsure how to approach this interview. But that sample interview gave me a idea of how to build on the guiding questions during the interview. I was very pleased with how the timing and pace panned out. As Construction Management has been possibility for me as a career. Another career path that interests me is going into Creative Marketing or Event Designer/Planner also hold my interest in something that I could be. I am trying to figure out what I want to do someday so I am currently looking over many options as I'm curious for experience. Some companies that interest me would be marketing for Carhartt because I really like their brand and would like to work with them to get more people wearing Carhartt.

Learning about what being a Project Manager entails

Getting more opportunities to look at professional events and organizations

I was able to find some interesting careers that I will continue to look into.

# data[].attributes.body
Overall this project was a lot to create, I found my self having to work through issues and spend time thinking about how I wanted to approach each section of the project. I thought that there was a lot of information to find for yourself that can be beneficial. But I also found that the Career Service videos are pretty surface level and might bring some insight but a different section for future projects might be better. I did find it enjoyable looking at different careers and trying to find something that fits for me. As well as the interview I found value from that and it brought me a lot of insight of what to expect from that field as well as that position.
