10. Training Specialist
 Day in the Life - Training is one of many specialized subdivisions in the field of human resources.
While human resource managers typically deal with things like staffing and personnel issues, total
quality management, recruiting, and hiring and firing of employees, a training specialist’s job is much
more defined within the field
 Since training specialists fall under the umbrella of human resources, all personnel, training, and labor
relations occupations are closely related
 Becoming a training specialist can in fact be very stressful. You will need to be able to adapt to clients
constantly changing and adapting to the environment and also the programs in which you are
developing.

killers, kidnappers, bank robbers, bombers, and perpetrators of mail fraud

much and information isn't just handed to you have to go out and find it. I also
think this would be a good fit for me because I like to investigate data and see
how it fits with the task that I am trying to complete.

 Of all the branches of the armed
forces, the Navy is often viewed as
the one most flavored with the scent
of adventure. the Navy were a
company, its officers would be the
management and board of directors.
Electricians, administrators, combat
specialists and all the rest of the
jobs necessary to run the Navy are
headed by officers

because I think that I am good at
decision making and I have very
good discipline. If I wanted to really
be a good Navy Officer. I am
interested in attending The United
States Naval academy and taken
part in their track and field team.
