Self-Assessment Resources
Begin your career planning
with some useful self-assessment tools. Below are links to a select list of
Web sites that can help you to evaluate your personality, skills, interests,
and values. Please be aware that these assessment exercises are
helpful tools but are not predictors of employment success. Be sure to
meet
with a career counselor to discuss your career interests.
Throughout the process of self-assessment, give some serious thought to
the following questions:
- What are your successes? What skills do you possess?
- What experiences are most important to you? Why?
- What are your strengths?
- What kind of tasks do you most like to perform? Why?
- What are your interests? How do you want to incorporate these into
your job or career?
- With what kinds of people do you want to associate?
- What kind of lifestyle is important to you?
Don't know what field of interest you'd like to explore? Take the Strong
Interest Inventory! Offered through the CRC, this assessment provides you with useful
insights about your personality, interests, and values, and helps you begin
to explore the career fields of particular relevance to you.

over the results.
