Parson's theory
Frank Parsons developed the idea of matching careers to talents, skills and personality.
Parsons states that occupational decision making occurs when people have achieved:
rational and objective judgment about the relationship between their individual traits, and the
labor market.
There are two general processes through which we can identify our strengths & weaknesses:
Strengths

Knowing Yourself & Time Management
Recalling Strengths & Weaknesses Key Takeaways
Knowing our strengths and weaknesses is important for our career progression in several ways:
Your strengths are the skills you can leverage and use to push yourself further to achieve
Leveraging Your Strengths
your goals. Knowing what you excel in can help you grow and aim higher.
Having a strong self-awareness and ability to highlight your areas of weakness enables
you to proactively work on these, such as taking courses, seeking additional exposure to a
Developing Skills task you are less comfortable with, or working with a mentor to address a weakness. This
process of self-assessment will ultimately strengthen your skill set so that you can
overcome any limitations.
Every weakness has a hidden strength - all students have to do is accept them for what
Corresponding Strengths they are. They should leverage these associated strengths and ask other people for advice
to improve themselves and fix any gaps they might have.
The next skill in career management is goal setting; to have a look at our present
opportunities and create a tentative plan to acquire clarity. Goal-setting is the process of
taking active steps to achieve your desired outcome. Maybe your dream is to become a
teacher, lawyer, computer scientist or pharmacist. Each one of these dreams involves
setting and reaching small (and big!) goals.

A simple but powerful tool helps you identify the opportunities you have right now to live more purposefully and
become the person you want to be. It helps us identify our Purpose and map out possibilities to narrow down our
career path.

Cover Letters, Job Research and Problem-Solving
Job Description Key Takeaways
A job description contains the following components: job title, job purpose, job duties and responsibilities,
required qualifications, preferred qualifications, and working conditions.
When you find a job posting you like, look for these factors while you revise your professional documentation:
Role Match
Your "target job title" should match the title that is being advertised and go toward the top of your resume to catch the eye of
the hiring manager and any applicant tracking system (ATS) that's searching for a match.
Value Match
Find overlap between your previous responsibilities and qualifications to show what value you can bring to this organization.
Look beyond tangible skills and highlight your work ethic or personality traits that make you a great candidate.

acquired through your career.

Career Competency: Critical Thinking Key Takeaways
Critical thinking is one of the most highly sought-after skills in the workplace. Critical thinking skills allow a person to
analyze information, arrive at conclusions and make sound decisions. Applying critical thinking in the workplace is an
essential skill everyone should be trying to improve. It can set you apart as a leader, improve the quality of your work,
and the perception those higher up the chain have of you.
Critical thinking in the workplace is a deeper level of thinking where we question, analyze and draw conclusions about
information and evidence.
Critical thinking skills are valuable in all roles in an organization. These skills enhance communication, creativity and
problem-solving. Thinking critically in the workplace allows you to connect ideas, evaluate arguments, find errors and
solve complex issues. The workplace is packed with situations that require teams and individuals to approach complex
problems and solve them using new and innovative approaches. Employees who can communicate and relate with
coworkers, develop strategies and overcome issues are more likely to succeed.
