Myfuture.com does not offer career counseling, but acknowledges that self-assessment is key to developing career goals. The site provides a breadth of information not previously available in a single destination, making it a useful resource for both those with career goals in mind and those who are still early in the self-assessment process. No matter which path a young adult chooses, it is our intent to help them make informed decisions and set the stage for a successful life.
