WHAT IS JOB SHADOWING?? | How it Can Help You Choose a Career Path
Do you know what is job shadowing and why it is so helpful when you are trying to choose a career path?
Job shadowing is an exercise that consists of following professionals around while they are on their jobs. With this you will actually get to have a first hand experience and overview of what they do and also you’ll have the opportunity to visualize yourself in this position and decide if it is the right path or not.
Job shadowing helps you as much as going for career counseling and getting career tips online. This is more than career advice, it is discovering yourself through someone else's example to choose the right career.
I know you are constantly asking yourself how to choose your career path, how to discover opportunities and this is what career shadowing is all about!!
It will help you be more self aware and find out what to do with your life.
I hope you love the video and that it definitely gets you a step closer to finding your dream career.

    Job shadowing is great, I got to do a lot of it when employed by a company. It's not so easy to experience when you're not in a company, but valuable when you can!

    Thank you!! Consider sharing with your friends that might need it, i know job shadowing is not so known and it would definitely help many people to get to know it before choosing a career.

    I think job shadowing is so important. I did an internship in college (so similar - you get the idea of the job) and knew right away I did not want to do that job!

The mind and experiences in life are so different and changing all the time and it affects each one of us in a different way making us also change our path. How did you decide to make that change? Was it something from Criminology that you didn't like?

    I’m a college student about to finish 47 credits in Early Childhood Education. I will when obtained a state certificate and can do and be whatever I want. On my resume in my experience I’ve always worked and volunteered in childcare, customer services, and office setting. Most importantly, I’m new to the work field and find it overwhelming. There’s so much in the media and things to learn and what not. I also work part-time in childcare as I finish my last class which is at the crossroads right now. Out of all this information, I have hobbies that might be useful in journalism and creative writing but I’m not getting anywhere with what or how to go about this career-wise. Also, I like to help people not just children. I feel conflicted. What should I do? Any advice, comments, feedback will help

    Hi Natasha, thank you so much for sharing your story, i really appreciate you opening up in our comments. Actually my advice would be to try different things for some time, like 3 months, and see how you feel about them. Hobbies don't necessarily have to be your job, they can, but they don't have to be, so i guess the only way of finding out is to give different things a shot. I think you know a few things already; you like interacting with people, you like children, you like writing and many other things that i still don't know about you, so that's a good start. Also, a good start point would be to ask your friends and family what they think comes easy and natural to you, like talking to people or writing might be. They are close to you and might see things you don't, it's just a different perspective. The fact that you commented on this video makes me guess you want to start job shadowing, that's great! There is a video on how to network on instagram, there you can find a lot of cool tricks that can help you in any social media platform. But the most important thing is not to panic, let life flow and look for new exciting opportunities, open some doors for yourself, take action and stay true to your values, you will see that everything falls into piece even if it doesn't seem like it will. I wish you the best, you can do this!! Take care. Veronica

    Not at all!! We all evolve and grow professionally, job shadowing can serve young ones that want to explore careers to make their first choice but it's also very helpful for everyone else that just needs to discover and explore new areas. It doesn't matter if you are redirecting your career path, changing it completely or choosing the first one, job shadowing will always serve you as an opportunity to find out if the next step is the right one or not.

    Hi! I think it would be kind of the same. Just write down your questions about that other position at work, you know? Like the things you have never really understood as an outsider or the things that have could not come so easy for you, like speaking in public for example. Take job shadowing as an opportunity clear all the doubts you have about a job short and long term
