Interests - What You Like/Dislike
Page 3 of 13
People with interests that match their career tend to be happier at work, more self-confident and have the "staying power" to obtain the jewels of their chosen profession. This assessment is based on people's patterns of interest across different careers. Your scores indicate how your interests in various work activities compare to the interests of other people.
Your Basic Interest Profile
Your Basic Interest Scores presented below measure your level of interest in 15 different areas. The first 12 scores measure your occupational interests. The next 3 scores are "work styles" that measure your attitudes towards certain common aspects of work. Click on the score names to see the definitions.
Each Basic Interest score is displayed as a percentile. For example, a score of 80% means you scored higher in this Basic Interest than 80 percent of people (more info).
