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.
