Questions and Answers
I'm 22 years old and about to graduate college from Santa Clara University in the Bay Area. I'm incredibly interested in personal growth/development, social dynamics, etc. Does anyone know of any higher education opportunities or possibly career paths down this avenue? Any schools or teaching opportunities? (Psychology isn't much of an interest unless someone knows a specific type of psychology that would be particularly useful for this) Thank you so very much for your help as I'm trying to pursue something that I love.
For what you say you want to do psychology would be the perfect career choice. There are many ways that working in the psychological field would help you to achieve these objectives. What do you think psychology is about if it isn't to help people with their personal and social growth?? That's what people go to therapist for to help with their own personal development and to learn how to get along better with the wider world around them. You should talk to some of the therapist in your school and some one one the staff in the psych department to see what they've been able to do with their lives. That would help you. But you would get better responses if you posted this in another area. This area if for parents and students who have learning disabilities.
The reason I ask this is because I may potentially have a good job; with lasting opportunity, but may not realize it. I need to see what your thoughts are.
– Opportunities for Career Advancement and Professional Growth
– Growth Company
– Geographic Location
– Employee Benefits
– Compensation including Incentive Pay Opportunities
– A match with your qualifications, skills and training.
– A career is based on doing something that you enjoy for a long term.

Tell me about a time when you have had to give negative feedback to someone, a friend or a college?
I'd elaborate about how I appreciatred the honesty and viewed it as an opportunity for personal growth.
