Holland's Self-Directed Search (SDS)
A self-assessment of interests and abilities that takes about 20 minutes to complete. It helps to see how your interests and abilities form a vocational personality and how career environments tend to support certain vocational personalities more than others.
Strong Interest Inventory (SII)
An assessment that identifies your general areas of interest (not abilities) and how they compare with the interests of people who are working. It can help you recognize work or learning environments that fit your interests and may lead to a satisfying career choice. This inventory takes 35-40 minutes to complete and your results are computer-scored by the publisher and returned within two weeks.
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
The most widely used instrument to measure personality preferences. The results will indicate your preferences for taking in information, making decisions, and other personality descriptors. In a career counseling appointment, you will learn how to identify criteria for career satisfaction, work-related strengths and potential blind spots.
