   Milepost 2:   Assessing My Choices

At this stop, we'll look and see how well the careers you researched match your profile!

For this exercise, you'll need two things:

1.   Your completed self-assessment profile titled,  My Assessment Summary.  
       This was the assessment summary worksheet you completed at Milepost 9 in the
       Career Planning Self-Assessments section.

2.    Your completed  Career Profile Forms  from the previous exercise at Milepost 1.

Now, let's compare your personal Assessment Summary to the Career Profiles to see how well they match!
