NPC Career Services

If you are trying to decide on a major or choose a career, NPC Career Services is here to help. Interest inventories are a way to clarify your career path. NPC Career Services has a variety of tools to help you learn more about your values, interests, personality, skills, and personal goals. 

Explore Careers in Fields of Interest through these four sections below: Read, Talk, Observe, and Experience.

Talk

Talk with a variety of people in career fields you find interesting. Most people like to talk about their jobs and their industry. Even if you decide that a job or field is not right for you, valuable information will be learned. You may do an informal interview with:

  • Relatives, friends, neighbors, etc.
  • NPC faculty, staff, or students
  • Alumni and Employers

Observe

Observe and "job shadow" professionals in their workplace to get a sense of their day-to-day responsibilities, challenges, and work environment. Ask about our informational interview contacts.

Experience

Experience work first hand through work study, internships, or volunteer and service learning opportunities. Seek Internships through our NPC CareerLink page and also visit our Internships page.
