Jan. 24th, 2006 09:39 pmHey! Remember when I was an education major?
SO! I took some career tests today... here were the results:
The following chart shows your basic interest scores as percentiles. For example, a score of 80% means you scored more highly than 80 percent of people (more info).
A high score (greater than 70) indicates strong interest. Low scores (less than 30) are just as important as high scores. These indicate lack of interest or dislike for certain activities. Click on the scale names for descriptions. The next page contains a written interpretation of your highest and lowest scores.
Highest Interest Scores
Your strongest interests (higher than 70) are a great place to start when considering your career options. Research has shown that people whose interests match their careers are more confident, happier, and achieve greater success.
Your highest score was on Teaching / Social Service, which means that you enjoy instructing people in learni
ng new things, helping people solve problems, and assisting others. You also scored highly on Writing, indicating that you enjoy creative or technical writing. You are also likely to be interested in a broad range subjects, so finding occupations that allow you to exercise these interests would lead to higher work satisfaction for you. Your high score on the Assertive scale means that you prefer working situations in which it is appropriate to assert authority over others and to direct and monitor their work.
Lowest Interest Scores
Low scores (less than 30) are just as important as high scores. These indicate lack of interest or dislike for certain activities. Understanding what jobs to avoid can save you time and prevent costly career mistakes.
Your lowest interest score was on Clerical. You’re not likely to be fulfilled doing routine office work that involves filing, record-keeping, word processing, operating office machines, attending to details, and other repetitive office tasks. You also showed low interest in Sales, so you wouldn’t be fulfilled in careers that involve selling merchandise or services. These careers involve understanding products and services, informing customers of their features, demonstrating products, and being persuasive with others. Finally, your low score on Food Service means that you wouldn’t enjoy work that involves the preparation, serving, or selling of food products.
meh.
it DOES say I'm more of a "do-er"
thoughts?
