Please take notes, including the name and a brief description of at least one of each type of site. 

- Research your desired career and necessary career skills. Create a written list of at least ten necessary skills for your chosen career. Be sure to list specific job skills rather than employability skills (https://www.thebalance.com/what-are-job-specific-skills-2063755).
