Jamie came to Find My Journey in Year 11 with a genuine blank. He knew he was creative, that he cared about justice and making things, and that he was good with people - but none of that had ever pointed anywhere specific. Like a lot of 17-year-olds, he had interests but not direction.
Jamie’s results surfaced five directions that, on the surface, look completely different. What connects them - and what the assessment picked up - is that Jamie is a storyteller with a justice instinct and a natural gift for connecting with people. The careers look different. The person they’re built for is the same.
“I went in with no idea what I wanted to do and came out with three things that all actually made sense for me. The Barrister result surprised me but the reasoning behind it was solid - it matched my justice instincts and communication strength. I wouldn’t have thought of law on my own.”
Looking into AFTRS open days for film, exploring the Arts Law Centre of Australia’s resources - and in the meantime, thinking about which local organisation he could start creating content for. The assessment gave him something to do this week, not just in five years.
Riley knew one thing clearly going into the assessment: time flies when he’s helping people. What he didn’t know was what to do with that. “Caring” didn’t feel like a career. And with Year 12 underway and no clear direction, that uncertainty had started to feel heavy.
Riley’s results came back with Disability Support Worker as something he could start immediately - this week, not after finishing school - and Occupational Therapist as a longer-term direction. Two roles in the same world, connected by a clear pathway. The assessment also surfaced something Riley hadn’t considered: his caring instinct, his preference for calm environments, and his ability to work both independently and alongside a team are precisely the qualities that make someone exceptional in allied health and community support. Not soft skills. Professional assets.
“It said my caring instinct is a professional asset, not just a personality trait. That’s not something anyone had said to me before. It made me think about my strengths differently.”
Looking into the free NDIS Worker Orientation Module - which takes under two hours and makes him immediately job-ready - and researching Bachelor of Occupational Therapy programs for after Year 12. Two clear next steps where before there were none.
