Charting Your Career: Stage 5
Goal: Finalize your CareerCHART Model.
Approach: Synthesize information from CareerCHART Stages One through Four.

Utilizing the Stage Five table on your CareerCHART model worksheet (407k pdf), synthesize and enter the information you’ve learned about yourself in the previous four CareerCHART stages. Then, determine whether each Career Path will fulfill your Requirements with a “Yes” or No”. Also, rate each Career Path on the likelihood that your Desirables will be satisfied with a “High”, “Medium”, or “Low”.

You have completed your personal CareerCHART Model—a model of your position requirements, unique skills, career interests, and preferences. This will be your reference page. Use it when searching for positions on the MATRIX Web site and when evaluating offers. Keep in mind, your CareerCHART Model may change over time, thus you should revisit it periodically.

You're now ready to develop and implement your search strategy for finding the right position. The CareerSTRATEGY step of the MATRIX CareerEXPLORER Process will provide help on Writing a Technical Resume, How to Interview Successfully, Keeping Track of Your Search, and Researching Potential Employers.
