Do I really need to learn this stuff?
Yes, your career choice is one of the most important decisions that you will make in your life. The data indicates that on average approximately one-third of your life is spent at work, and your career choice carries both financial and emotional consequences. Unfortunately, too many people do not spend enough time learning about prospective careers before choosing one, which can result in the time and expense of changing majors, switching careers and/or being a stuck in an unfulfilling job.
