20-Somethings' Career Stories
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 26 ต.ค. 2020
Being a young professional in this day and age is TOUGH. On this channel, I interview people in their 20s about their education and careers thus far to help showcase a few things:
1) Everyone gets where they are going at their own pace
2) It's okay to change your career at any point
3) The "I'm figuring it out as I go" experience is a shared one.
I use my personal and professional network to identify potential interviewees. Everyone volunteers their time! As a thank you, I include a link to interviewees' favorite charitable/cause organization in the video descriptions for increased visibility.

Hi there! That's a great stepping stone to a wide variety of fields, such as fitness or nutrition. Definitely connect with your school's career counselor to learn more.
Thank you for all your hard work, It’s people like you we need in the healthcare system. I have EDS and my Neurologist found it in me, But I’m also Epileptic.
Great interview!
Jodie is wonderful!
can i pursue LMHC from sociology!? I want to do master in mental health counselor but i majored in sociology during my bachelor..psychology and sociology were also my subject in 11th and 12 th class!! Plz help if u know
Hi there! If you are looking into graduate programs for this career field, each university's website should have information on pre-requisite courses you need to take. :)
Thank you so much for this-I am prepping for a final interview for a admissions counselor role at a university and this is so insightful!
Hi
Great video!! 🫶🏽
Hye, I am from India. I recently finished my masters in environmental Sciences. How can I become an environment lawyer without doing llb? Is there any other carrier path?
To become a lawyer in the U.S. you need to complete a JD degree and pass a Bar exam in the state you would like to practice law. At that point you can choose to "specialize" in environmental law by working for a firm that focuses on that. I'm not sure what the process is like in India - sorry! Here is more U.S. specific info: www.bls.gov/ooh/legal/lawyers.htm#:~:text=Becoming%20a%20lawyer%20usually%20takes,American%20Bar%20Association%20(ABA).
What other health-related careers would you like to learn about?
thanks for the video I'm studying bachelor of health and wellness Studies what careers will I get in this degree
This is great stuff! An exciting career path. My local colleges only offer EHS as a graduate focus, with an undergrad in environmental sciences. I did some research and found that there are only 30 colleges in the United States that offer accredited safety and health undergrad programs.
