  • Summary

  • Choosing your profession is a big decision. We're here to help. The Chosen Career is a four part series, created and produced by Avi Benarroch, a student at Touro’s Lander College for Men. The series provides insights into popular careers, such as accounting, medicine and psychology, and includes interesting paths you may not have considered before, such as industrial-organizational psychology. Through interviews with executives, industry professionals, educational leaders as well as recent grads in the trenches at top professional schools, you'll hear about the many opportunities available in a variety of fields and what it takes to succeed. The series also gets personal, discussing how to stay true to our Jewish values as we navigate workplace culture and how to balance demanding careers with family life, religion and Torah study, and other obligations.

    Dean Moshe Sokol: 4 Steps to Choosing the Career that’s Right For You
    Jun 8 2022

    Dean Sokol, who holds a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania, and received semicha from the Israel Torah Research Institute (ITRI), shares four key factors that play a role in the decision-making process when it comes to choosing careers. He offers both theoretical and practical considerations and explains how the ultimate decision should be a mix of the two. He shares his personal experience of starting down a career path that ultimately was not for him, what he learned from that and offers some very practical steps college students can take to assess if a career path is right for them.

    Dr. Sokol urges young people to be honest with themselves about their core values, what they truly need to be comfortable in life and when it’s worth compromising.
