Real College Plan Career Field Interest Survey identifies a young adult’s Top 3 workplace setting interests and then lists the career fields corresponding to those workplace settings. As a result, Real College Plan Career Field Interest Survey outcomes can be used to confirm a young adult’s interest in certain career fields. For example, a young adult may have expressed an early interest in the Business and Finance career field, but also felt drawn to Management. After reviewing the scores from his/her Real College Plan Career Field Interest Survey and after realizing that he/she will likely perform the work tasks associated with an entry-level college graduate job in either the Business and Finance career field or the Management career field for at least 40 hours per week for several years, the young adult may feel more confident about selecting a college major that will lead to a career in either of those career fields. One final thought: Remember that as stated on the website, Real College Plan is focused on careers not college majors. Therefore, the survey results are just one of several factors that a young adult should use to arrive at a decision regarding his/her undergraduate major.
