CONCLUSION: So do you think the career you choose will be a good


match and is something that you can do? Explain why you think the way
you do.

The annual salary and work hours aren’t something I disagree with. It
interests me and I think I’d see myself enjoy doing it in the long run. I’d
want to hear and see the experience from a person in this work force to
choose if it is as good of match as I think it is for me. However the
projected employment rate is low and I’m afraid if it will not be a job I could
earn or keep in the future.
