29. Interest Level: 66.67%
30. Technology
31. Did you know that technology careers are some of the highest-paid occupations? Tech careers are also
projected to grow by 12% from 2018 to 2028 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
32.
33. Watch the video to learn more.
34.
35.
36.
37.
38. Careers in Technology
39.
40. If you scored over 60% in this technology career category, you likely enjoy using computers or other
technology devices. You may be the first person to want the latest smartphone, smartwatch, or wireless
device. You probably also like using the internet to find information.
41.
42. The good news is, technology is a growing field with many career options and opportunities. Many
careers in tech today weren't even around 20 years ago! Tech careers are often fast-growing
occupations because companies leverage technology to do business like never before. People also
embrace technology to make their lives easier, from shopping online, adjusting the temperature, and
turning on lights with just a voice command. People even monitor their health and track their activity
using wearable technology.
43.
44. If you haven't graduated high school yet:
45.
46. Now is the ideal time to explore what the technology field is all about. In high school, you want to take
challenging math classes. If math is not your strongest subject, don't fret. Place effort in your math
studies and work to gain a solid foundation in Algebra. Algebra is often a pre-requisite to take a college-
level Intro to Programming course. Your summer breaks in high school can also be a great time to learn
to code, providing you a glimpse into whether you may love a career in tech or not.
47.
48. Did you know there are college summer camps (though most cater to students who have yet to
graduate high school)? Colleges recruit future students this way. They offer pre-college programs that
introduce essential topics such as web design and development, data analytics, and how to present
data. Volunteer and internship opportunities are another way to gain experience.
49.
50. Check if any local non-profits in your area may need entry-level help and tell them you're interested in
anything technology related. Aside from college summer camps, volunteering, and internship
opportunities, you may also try and land an entry-level, part-time job in the technology field that
requires little experience. These positions can help you gain real-world experience in the field while you
earn an income.

54. Whether you are a student or adult, there are a ton of free online resources to help you learn today. A
list of our favorites include Khan Academy, CodeAcademy, and HarvardX's free Intro to Computer
Science course on EDx.org. The HarvardX course is most appropriate for high school students and adults.
However, if you are younger and motivated to stick with it, you can take the course HarvardX course,
too!
55.
56. Choosing a Technology Career:
57.
58. Though a college degree is not required to land a career in tech, most jobs in technology require some
formal education and training. If salary is a motivating factor for you, research technology careers
requiring 2-years of college or more to complete. However, many employers of higher-paying
technology careers are looking for candidates with at least a bachelor's degree.
59.
60. To narrow down your career search by education level, visit the Careers section on this site and choose
the Technology category. From there, filter the list by the education level you are willing to attain. When
researching careers, you'll not only learn what education is required, but you also want to check out
what the job entails, the growth rate, and the salary you can expect after graduation. The Bureau of
Labor Statistics has a useful Occupational Handbook to research this information.
61.
62. If you want to launch your career quickly, research certification programs you can complete in one year
or a few months. Community colleges and trade schools specialize in these programs and generally have
information right on their website. It is essential to know that certifications will not qualify you for a Pell
Grant, and you may need to fund the cost another way. The school's financial aid office should be able
to discuss options with you. If you do need help paying for tuition, you may want to look at a two-year
associate's degree program as you could qualify for the Pell Grant when you complete a FAFSA
application.
63.
64. Two-year associate's degree programs allow you to enter the workforce faster and continue your
education online to earn your bachelor's degree if you so choose. However, if you can commit four years
to earn your bachelor's degree, you can unlock significantly more career options.
65.
66. But college isn't the only route to gain a career in technology. Each branch of the military has positions
in technology as well. If considering the military, know you can also join the military reserve and go to
college at the same time. Each branch of the military offers appealing tuition reimbursement programs
and pays a stipend to those who go to college.
67.
68. Choosing a Degree or Certification Program:
69.
70. A computer science degree is one of the most versatile technology degrees. This degree trains you to
program, analyze data, and create data visualizations. It provides you with the skills necessary to
specialize in other areas of technology such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, cybersecurity
and ethical hacking, or Big Data. According to DataUSA.io, the average wage of someone with a
computer science degree is close to $100,000 a year.
71.
72. The career fields with the most computer science degrees were software developers, computer
programmers, and computer and information systems managers. Other more specialized positions
included computer and information research scientists, information security analysts, and software

BSB1WKR_ACT_P1 Version 1 | 20 October 2020 Page 6 of

RTO: Code

quality assurance analysts and testers. For all technology career descriptions, check our Technology
Careers page.
73.
74. Work Environment:
75.
76. Many people in tech work indoors and at an office. However, because of technology's easy access, many
can perform their jobs from home. Service technicians may work on-the-road and visit site locations.
Hours can vary, but most work 40 hours a week. Sometimes, overtime or weekend work is necessary to
meet project deadlines or convert technology systems during off-peak hours. Workers sometimes elect
to work from a standing desk to avoid sitting at a computer for long periods. Depending on the type of
technology career you choose, you may also connect, assemble, or take apart technology devices which
requires a bit more physical activity.
77.
78. Additional Career Exploration:
79.
80. Check out your other high-interest career categories on these results to discover careers that blend your
interests. For example, if you scored high in technology, finance, and healthcare, healthcare informatics
may be a career option. If you scored high in art and technology, research what a multimedia artist
does.
81.
82. To narrow your search even further, take the free technology career test to determine your interest
level across broad technology career field categories.
83.
84. Interest Level: 50%
85. Healthcare
86. Did you know that most of the top 20 highest paid careers and fastest-growing jobs are in the health
care field? If your career test scores high in healthcare and wellness, you might consider researching
medical-related career options.
87.
88. Watch the video to learn more.
89.
90.
91.
92.
93. Careers in Healthcare:
94.
95. There are many careers to research in healthcare and wellness and a few examples are: sonographer,
registered nurse, certified nursing assistant, licensed practical nurse, radiographer, surgical technologist,
dental assistant, dental hygienist, physical therapist, physical therapy assistant (and aid), occupational
therapist, occupational therapist assistant (and aid), speech therapist, doctor, emergency medical
technician, medical assistant, medical records assistant, medical coder and biller, clinical lab tech,
veterinarian, medical coder and biller, nutritionist or dietitian, and personal training.
96.
97. If you scored over 60% on this career test in healthcare, you likely enjoy helping those in need. Friends
and family would probably describe you as kind, caring, and empathetic. These are the characteristics of
people in the medical field.
98.

BSB1WKR_ACT_P1 Version 1 | 20 October 2020 Page 7 of

99. Medial professionals help the sick, empower people to make positive changes, educate communities to
stay healthy, and research new vaccines and treatments. They may not be miracle workers, but they
sure come close. They save lives.
100.
101. Healthcare workers must have a blend of stamina, determination, and critical thinking to
complement their caring nature. However, one of the toughest decisions all healthcare professionals
must make is choosing their medical specialty. There are hundreds of medical careers to choose from,
but there are a few strategies to narrow down your list of options. First, let's consider education level.
102.
103. Education:
104.
105. If you want to start your career as soon as possible, research certification programs that require
a few months of training, such as Nursing Assistant, Phlebotomy Technician, and Medical Coder and
Biller. Other programs take two years to complete, such as imaging technicians, vet technicians, surgical
technicians, registered nurses, physical therapy assistants, and dental hygienists. If you can commit four
or more years to your education, you can unlock significantly more career options.
106.
107. Career Research:
108.
109. Most careers in healthcare require formal education and training. So do your research to ensure
your time investment pays off and secures a position you love. The next way to narrow down your list is
salary. A good rule of thumb, jobs requiring more education generally pay more too. If salary is a
motivating factor for you, research healthcare careers requiring at least 2-years of college or more to
complete. Once you determine your education and salary preference, it's time to decide which specialty
is right for you.
110.
111. Check out your other high-interest career categories to discover careers that blend your
interests. For example, if you scored high in technology, finance, and healthcare, healthcare informatics
may be a career option. If you scored high in healthcare, science, and technology, research what an
epidemiologist does. To narrow your search even further, YourFreeCareerTest has a free healthcare
career test that asks you questions to determine your interest level across broad healthcare field
categories.
112.
113. Successful healthcare workers must be good at solving problems, often at a moment's notice.
People in this field also interact with the public most of the day and must engage with other medical
colleagues, so communication and teamwork are crucial for success.
114.
115. The level of math, science, and technology you must learn in the medical field will vary by
position. Some positions require an advanced level of working knowledge, while others require a basic
understanding.
116.
117. If you are still in middle school or high school, consider taking courses in anatomy, biology (and
human biology), chemistry, math, physics, and nutrition. Put energy into these subjects so you can be
competitive when applying for acceptance into college medical programs.
118.
119. Work Environment:
120.

BSB1WKR_ACT_P1 Version 1 | 20 October 2020 Page 8 of

RTO Name
RTO: Code

121. A healthcare professional's work environment varies by position. If you are a physical therapist,
you may work for a sports team or in a rehab center. Biomedical engineers work in laboratories. Those
that care for, test, or treat patients - such as nurses, doctors, or advanced imaging technicians, often see
patients in hospitals or other care settings. Not only does your work environment vary by position, but
so does your schedule and amount of hours worked. Medical coders and billers may have an average,
40-hour work-week. In contrast, those that work in operating rooms, such as surgeons, O.R. nurses,
anesthesiologists, and let's not forget veterinarians, may work longer hours, nights, and weekends.
122.
123. Some positions require more physical activity than others. However, most require stamina and
the ability to stand or walk. But don't rule out a career in healthcare if you do have physical limitations.
Research careers in the medical field without consideration of your physical abilities. Then, research
various medical settings and specialties that would be flexible to your unique situation.
124.
125. Again, the education required will depend on the career you choose. If you want to work quickly
but continue to advanced your career, there are medical careers for that. For example, you can become
a Registered Nurse with a 2-year associate's degree. As you work as a nurse, you can take a blend of
online classes and clinical experience to earn your bachelor's degree in nursing. From there, you can
become a Nurse Practitioner by earning your master's degree.
126.
127. Career Outlook:
128.
129. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the healthcare field is one of the fastest-growing
career fields in the United States with some of the highest-paid salaries in the nation.
130.
131. Interest Level: 41.67%
132. Multimedia
133. Careers in multimedia are unique in that you must be tech savvy, good with written and verbal
communication, and an artist. If you scored high in this area, then you must be interested in all three.
Multimedia artists have to learn many skillsets to do their job and there is also opportunity to move
laterally across different types of positions as you learn an additional skill.
134.
135. Watch the video to learn more.
136.
137.
138.
139. If you scored over 60% in the multimedia career category, you are not alone, and you can
usually enter this career field with a Bachelor's degree. But you may wonder what exactly multimedia is.
Well, multimedia is when a person takes many different media types such as audio, video, photos,
graphics, or even presentation slides and combines those elements to create something new.
140.
141. For example, an advertisement commercial would be considered multimedia because it contains
various elements to create the commercial, such as the voiceover audio, the music in the background,
the video shots of the product and actors, and even graphics. All of these multimedia elements are
edited together to create a video. Because of this, there are many career options to choose from if you
are interested in a multimedia career. For instance, there are video editors, graphic animators, and
special effect artists. The popularity of augmented and virtual reality has created additional career
options for professionals to create virtual environments, simulations, and interactive elements within

BSB1WKR_ACT_P1 Version 1 | 20 October 2020 Page 9 of

RTO Name
RTO: Code

those environments. You may not have considered this, but multimedia artists are also extremely vital
for social media campaigns.
142.
143. Though a college degree is not required to gain employment as a multimedia artist, most
companies do not want to hire an entry-level position without a bachelor's degree.
144.
145. If you have not finished high school yet:
146.
147. If you haven't graduated high school yet, now is the ideal time to research various career fields
in multimedia. In high school, you want to take art and technology classes. If your school offers classes
to teach you to code or design graphics, sign up for those. A photography class can also come in handy if
offered at your school. When it comes to math, try and gain a good foundation of Algebra before
graduating, as this is often a pre-requisite to take a college-level Intro to Programming course if that is
needed for your degree.
148.
149. Work Environment
150.
151. Most multimedia artists work indoors and on a computer. However, since a computer, good
software, and skill are needed to create multimedia elements, some professionals in this career field
may work from home. Some artists may also elect to work as freelancers or independent contractors.
Work hours may vary when project deadlines are approaching, and overtime is necessary to meet those
deadlines.
152.
153. Additional Career Exploration:
154.
155. For additional career exploration, be sure to check out the art and technology career categories,
as multimedia careers are a blend of both. You can also take the free art career test to narrow your
search to determine your interest level across broad art career categories. To research multimedia
careers, you can also visit the "Careers" section on this site and choose the "Multimedia" category to
view all the multimedia-related careers listed. You can also filter those careers by the education needed.
Some of the career pages include videos as well.

158. Interest Level: 33.33%
159. Public Service
160. Public service careers are crucial for the protection and assistance to members of our society.
Careers may include fighting fires, tending to emergencies, investigating fraudulent claims, providing
security, and even planning for natural disasters.

166. Careers in Technology
167.
168. If you scored over 60% in this public service career category, you might enjoy serving your
community, protecting others, or helping people during an emergency or crisis. Friends and family may

say you’re the first to help if it’s needed. If this describes you, a career in public service may be worth
exploring.
169.
170. Education
171.
172. There are a wide range of careers in public service and choosing the right career for you will
largely depend on how much education and training you are willing to attain. There are entry level jobs
that require no formal certification or degree at all while other public service positions require a
bachelor’s degree. Remember, like other industries, the more education you receive the higher the
salary likely is.
173.
174. If you do consider going to collect or vocational school, research the program’s admissions
requirements to find out precisely what the application requirements are. Some programs require a
physical fitness test, CPR or first aid training, or an entry exam.
175.
176. Careers in Public Service
177.
178. Example careers in public service include: loss prevention officer, wildlife officer, firefighter,
correctional officer, probation officer, and emergency dispatcher. Again, some jobs require more
education than others. For example, if you want to protect people, a high school diploma may be the
only requirement to land an entry-level job as a security guard. If you meet the military’s recruitment
requirements, a career in the military may also be an option as they train you for free, give you
experience, and you earn education benefits at the same time.
179.
180. Do you want to join the police force? Research the police academy application requirements in
your area if you’ve always dreamed of being a police officer. You may discover that applicants that have
earned a bachelor’s degree are preferred.
181.
182. Career Research
183.
184. For a list of public service careers, check out the public service page. This page is helpful as you
can also filter out the public service careers by education level. Also, check out your other high interest
career categories to research public service career categories that may blend all of your high interest
career categories.
185.
186. For example, if you had a high interest score in science and public service, you might research a
career in forensic science or fire investigation. Or maybe you scored high in engineering and public
service, you may examine how to become a health and safety engineer.
187.
188. Work Environment
189.
190. People that choose careers in public service work in a variety of environments. Some positions
are required to work at an office while others are more physically demanding. Firefighters, police
officers, or soldiers in the military can also expect continuous training that can be physically demanding
so they can stay fit and level-headed in stressful situations. Those that serve the public may also work
early in the morning, during the day, work nights, overnights, or weekends when duty calls.
191.

192. If you haven't graduated high school yet:

193.
194. Now, if you have yet to graduate high school, there are a few ways to prepare for a career in
public service. If you’re ideal future job has physical demands like a firefighter, police officer, or even a
military soldier, staying active in a sport that keeps you cardiovascularly fit can be helpful. You can also
consider learning a martial art. If you are leaning towards a career in laws, taking courses in government
and political science can prepare you for your college coursework.
195.
196. No matter what career interests you the most in public service, learning about other cultures is
useful for everyone so you can relate to a diverse population of people. For this reason, sociology and
foreign language courses can be especially valuable.
197.
198. Research:
199.
200. To research public safety careers, visit the "Careers" section on this site and choose the "Public
Safety" category to view all the public safety related careers listed. You can also filter those careers by
the education needed. Some of the career pages include videos as well.

204. Culinary
205. If you love cooking and scored high in culinary, you may find a career in the culinary arts
exciting. If you are just exploring a culinary career, you can get a full or part-time job at a restaurant to
gain experience or decide whether this career field is right for you. Bear in mind that various restaurants
may offer a very different experience so try and get a job at the type of place you think you'd like to
work.
206.
207. Watch the video to learn more.
208.
209.
210.
211. If you scored over 60% in this culinary career category, you probably enjoy cooking or baking,
experimenting with new flavors, and trying new recipes. If you are looking for a fast-paced career where
you work with a team of people to provide customers with a tasty culinary experience, this career field
may be right for you.
212.
213. If you have yet to graduate high school:
214.
215. If you have yet to graduate high school, you may be surprised how your core academic classes
are applicable when cooking! Chemistry, business, math, and art classes are all helpful to prepare you
for culinary school. If you are old enough, you can even get a part-time job at a restaurant to gain
experience and determine whether this career field is right for you. Bear in mind, various restaurants
will offer a very different experience, so try to get a job at the type of place you think you'd like to work.
