Ask the right career questions

Like many bloggers looking for stuff to blog about, I stumbled upon the Howard Community College (Columbia, MD) website and found a nugget that is worth sharing. Here are three essential questions folks should ask themselves in assessing future career paths that are in synch with their personality:

1. Are you?
2. Can you?
3. Do you like to?

Howard used these three key questions to organize its career clusters and orient them to students. Here is an example from their Arts and Media Career Cluster:

Are You?/Can You?/Like to?
Intuitive/Amuse others/Solve problems through self-expression
Creative/Sing, dance, draw, act, write poetry/Work alone
Intense/Entertain others/Attend plays or concerts
Original/Design interiors/fashions/Work on crafts
