What were your scores for each of the six interest profiles (realistic, investigative, artistic, social, enterprising, and conventional)?

The career options available to psychology majors are many. Graduates of undergraduate psychology programs may choose psychology-related careers in research, education, public service, or even clinical work. They may also choose to work in other fields only indirectly related to psychology, such as marketing, management, and legal services.

Perform research about career options in the field using your textbook and the Argosy University online library resources. Select two scholarly resources for use in this assignment.

“My Next Move” is an online career development tool offered by the US Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration.
