Caution!
Interest inventories
are not tests! Rather, they are surveys designed to take you on a
tour of the World of Work as a means of helping you identify your
interests and matching occupations.
Interest inventories
don't make decisions! Only you can do that. However,
they can help you gather the information needed to make intelligent
career decisions.
Use more than one
inventory! No inventory can expose you to all the work activities
found in our World of Work. Therefore, it's wise to use several to
gain the best understanding of your interests and career options.
Consider other
factors than your interests! Making a wise career decision requires
that you also consider your skills, values and personality style.
