What Don’t You Want

Something extremely important I learned this week is that figuring out what you don’t want to do is equally or more important as figuring out what you do want to do. Not only did I hear this on one of my visits this week, but I also experienced this first hand. I found the size of the company I don’t want to work for and the kind of specific work that I’m not wholly interested in. Because of this, I feel like it helped me hone more in on what I am willing to do for work someday. By finding this out, I feel like I learned what to look for in a company someday. It has also been helpful to allow me to know what to put my time and effort into this upcoming year before graduation. I am so grateful for this experience to bring me closer to my dream job someday.
