Are you a current Pierce College student who wants comprehensive career guidance?
Actively enrolled Pierce College students can connect with Faculty Counselor Advisors (FCA) to take the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) or the Strong Interest Inventory (SII). Talk with an FCA about the results and how that may guide your self-reflection on future employment and education. Then, talk to the Career Center about your next steps.
Are you looking for occupational outlook information?
My Next Move gives you the option to discover occupations and training programs by exploring career options with key words, go directly to careers by industry, or complete an interest assessment to be matched to potential careers.
