How to Choose a Career Path

Do you know what career you want to have? Find out about different careers before you make your choice.

Jobs and career paths that are similar are in the same career cluster. For example, jobs that help people who are sick are in the cluster called "Health."

Knowing about career clusters is helpful when you are looking at jobs and thinking about careers. If you want to help people who are sick, looking at the big cluster will show you many choices of jobs. It will also help you learn about other jobs that might interest you.

Directions: Go to the Find Careers Tool on next page to see list of career clusters. Sometimes you may not understand a career cluster name. That is OK. You can click on the picture next to the cluster name to learn more about the jobs and career paths in that cluster.
