9. THE END RESULT
• I do believe this exercise was somewhat useful. Job searching
can be overwhelming. This assignment made me focus on
what exactly to look for. Working with the job listings, step by
step, helped me understand what to search for in the listing.
Breaking the job skill set required into “soft skills needed” or
“technical skills needed” put into perspective what that job
was actually asking of the person applying. The jobs I
researched were mostly asking for a technical skill set. All of
those jobs were high paying, with low unemployment rates. Is
there a correlation between technical skill required jobs and
high pay?… I would say most likely! Definitely a field worth
looking into as I come to the end of my schooling.
