Problem
Jennifer is graduating from high school and has made plans
to attend university. The problem is that Jennifer does not
know what program to apply to because she does not know what
job she wants to pursue in the future.
Jennifer's
older brother had been in college for five years and during
that time he had three different majors. Jennifer decided
that she would not make the same mistake as her brother and
would take control of her future by searching out a university
program that would lead to a rewarding job. Jennifer began
her search by browsing the internet for information on all
the different university majors that were available. This
was an overwhelming task as there are hundred of different
majors.
JVIS
Results
Fortunately,
in her search Jennifer found a link to JVIS.COM, a website
that offered to solve all of her problems. Despite being a
little skeptical, she decided her career was worth it and
gave it a go. In less than 45 minutes she completed the occupational
interest test and had received a detailed report. The report
indicated that Jennifer displayed a high interest in creative
arts, physical sciences and mathematics. Jennifer needed to
find a job where she could be imaginative, but scientific
as well.
She
also scored moderately low in Academic Satisfaction, indicating
that she may not enjoy studying, researching and other scholarly
activities associated with being a university student. The
report emphasized that this score was based on how her interests
compared to the average university student and did not indicate
her ability to perform well in school. Jennifer had always
worked hard in school and achieved good marks so she decided
this would not deter her from her goal of obtaining more education.
Solution
With
the guidance of her personalized JVIS report, she decided
that a career in engineering or architecture would be best
suited for her interests. In fact her top three job choices
were: 1) engineering and technical support workers; 2) occupations
in fine art; and 3) mathematical and related occupations.
She researched each of the job groups by checking out the
recommended websites and books.
Jennifer
followed the steps JVIS.COM offered on how to choose a university
major. Based on her own grades, interests and the advice of
others, she decided that a major in architectural engineering
would maximize her interests in art and science. This major
emphasized the application of engineering principles to the
planning, design, and construction of buildings and would
likely lead to a challenging, and fulfilling job.
Jennifer
also faced the problem of deciding which university to attend.
Fortunately, she remembered that JVIS.COM also offered a guide
to help choose a university as well. After examining the list
of important considerations that she had developed, Jennifer
decided that she would attend a university nearby to cut down
on living costs and to be close to her family. Jennifer is
now in her third year of university and is looking forward
to graduating university and beginning her exciting career
in architecture.
Now
she isn't worried about what career to choose. But she is
worried about her brother borrowing money when she graduates.
