Welcome to the forum Bec! Great to have you here 8)

Thanks for the great resources!

Another careers resource I found is this careers quiz. It gives you what is called a Holland code based on your interest level in six different categories (Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising and Conventional - you will learn more about these when you complete the quiz) to help you understand which jobs will suit your interests, talents, and aptitude.

NB: the site is based in the US, so salary and education requirements are likely to be a bit inaccurate.
