Personally Speaking - 30 Days to Transfer

Episode 22

Personally Speaking

Published on: 22nd October, 2025

In this episode we explore something very, very close to you...your personality. You should always fit the job/major to you, rather than the other way around. But to do that, you need to know WHO you are. These tools can help.

Your career center likely can give you inventories for free like the Meyers Briggs, Strong Interest Inventory, Work Values inventories and learning styles assessments. Your community college probably has a Career and Life Planning course you can take as a student that is also CSU/UC transferable and fulfills the CSU Life Long Learning Category ( if you've been following the CSU GEN ED pattern prior to CALGETC). Discuss transferability with you transfer counselor. At no other point in your life do you have a semester to really figure out yourself and what you are called to do. This is your chance. Take it.
