ResumeHelper Career Direction Assessment
STEP ONE

Career Direction Assessment

This assessment is designed to uncover how you naturally think and work, what you actually enjoy doing, what you want your next working life to feel like, and what could make an otherwise-good career a poor fit.

Important: Answer as yourself—not as the person you think an employer wants. In the first sections, answer based on what comes naturally to you, not simply what you have been trained to do.

There are 155 questions plus one short written reflection. Your progress is saved in this browser while you take the assessment.

Please choose an answer before continuing.
Final reflection

Imagine a really good workday

Imagine it is three years from now. You come home after a really good workday and think, “I really love what I’m doing.” What happened that day? What made the work feel like such a good fit for you?

Please write a short response before seeing your results.
