Career Assessment

Career Assessment is a great way to begin to explore how well a variety of careers might be a good match to the type of person you are. The starting point in the career development process is identifying your skills, values, interests, and preferences to determine what types of positions are of interest and would be a good fit for you.

There are many self-assessment tools that can be used to help with this process. Some of these can be self-administered – for free or for a fee – and others must be administered by a counselor or psychologist who is trained in the field and can assist you with interpreting the results.

Through a guided process of exploration and planned activities you will be able to reach a decision as to what major career or position is the perfect match for you. This process helps you gain insight about yourself so that you can articulate what is important to you, focus on your major field of study, embark on your job search, and assist you in evaluating your available options.
