After completing this module, you are much more prepared to enter the world of work. You know how to determine which careers fit your personality and abilities. You did some research on those careers in order to determine how much training you need, the outlook of those careers, and how much you can expect to be paid in those particular careers. Hopefully, you learned something about yourself in the process. You learned about preparing for the workforce with a cover letter and a resume and by preparing for an interview. You also learned earned and unearned income and how to calculate your paycheck. All of these topics will help you in the next module as you explore the world of taxes.
