Different careers need different amounts of preparation. Each career is in one of five Job Zones, which are groups of careers that need the same level of experience, education, and training.
Experience
Little or no previous work-related skill, knowledge, or experience is needed for these careers. For example, a person can become a waiter or waitress even if he/she has never worked before.
Training
Employees in these careers need from a few days to a few months of training. Usually, an experienced worker can show you how to do the job.
Education
Some of these careers may need a high school diploma or GED certificate.
