This practical program looks at laying the groundwork for a successful job search, including various considerations to take into account to determine a satisfying career path. Combining narration (covering key vocabulary terms such as “intrinsic values”) with typical scenarios featuring young actors, Mapping a Career Path recommends taking a career assessment test to help determine personality, interests, values, and aptitudes. In addition, young job seekers offer comments, while a career counselor provides further insights. An alternate version of the program includes stopping-point activities, such as creating a T-chart of career interests. Recommended. Aud: H, C, P. (E. Gieschen)
