CAREER INTEREST TESTING

Pathways Career Services offers the Holland Self-Directed Search and the Keirsey Temperament Sorter inventories to help establish correlations between student interests, personal characteristics, and specific fields of work.

Some assessment instruments are also accessible online. A few of these are listed below, with links.

Meeting with a Pathways career advisor is strongly recommended after taking an online test, in order to get the most out of the test results.
