Discussion post - Internet Technology as a Career Exploration Tool

NEED TO ANSWER ALL TWO DISCUSSION QUESTIONS... 

Question 1

1. As you are nearing the completion of your Associate degree, it's time to start searching for jobs in your field that you may interested in obtaining. Before you begin searching for your dream job, it will be important that you thoroughly conduct the necessary research to ensure that you understand the occupation, requirements, salary expectations, and steps to getting hired.

When conducting research on your chosen career, it's important that you use accurate and reliable sources, such as the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

For your discussion:

You will need to visit the United States Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics website. Scroll towards the bottom and locate the "Career Information" section. Select the "Occupational Outlook Handbook" option to begin your search. Locate and explore an occupation that you are interested in.

• Describe the occupation that you researched; in your own words, summarize the role. What is the education level required to secure a career in that field?
• Discuss the median pay, how to become or get a job in that field, and the job outlook.
• In addition, include why you found this job to be of particular interest to you. Be specific!

Question 2

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is a somewhat misleading title as it does not always relate to a salesman. The TSP, however, does involve a trip between a set of points that needs to be calculated as efficiently as possible.

Select your own example of a scenario in which a TSP can be used to find a solution. Explain how using a TSP will help in your scenario and then share what you think is the most optimal solution.
