    • Many people believe that choosing a career is an important step on the road towards an adult life. The aim of the project I am currently working on is to investigate what factors influence career choice of the teenagers in Zetland. As part of my project, I have found and analyzed some relevant data presented in the table.
    • According to the data, the adolescents have quite a wide range of factors when it comes to choosing a career. It is clear that the vast majority of the respondents \(40%\) consider their parents' expectations to be the most important. Moreover, a great number of the teenagers \(21%\) make a final decision on their profession at school listening to the views of their teachers. It is worth mentioning that friends’ persuasion is significant for 15% of the respondents.
    • Surprisingly, only 13% of the teenagers are influenced by the media when choosing their career. It is a three times less popular answer than submitting to the parental pressure. To my mind, this question is more often discussed in families than in media space.
    • One problem that can arise with choosing a career is that the teenagers in Zetland really do not know their opportunities and talents. One solution to this problem is to hold special psychological tests and interviews in order to help adolescents find the field they are able to work in.
    • In conclusion, I firmly believe that despite some problems associated with choosing a career, it is an essential step for teenagers. I hope the adolescents will listen to the advice of their parents, teachers and friends but make their own decision.
