Summer work in an employment agency is a good way to explore the field of career and employment technician. Interviewing the director of a public or private agency might give you a better understanding of what the work involves and the qualifications such an organization requires of its technicians.
A summer or part-time job in your school's career services office or the dean's office offers the opportunity to gain valuable administrative and technology skills. You may also consider working part time or as a volunteer in a library. Such work can provide you with some of the basic skills for learning about information resources, cataloging, and filing. In addition, assisting schools or clubs with any media presentations, such as video or slide shows, will help familiarize you with the types of technology that career and employment technicians use.
