How the career interest finder works
Rate how much you would enjoy 36 different work activities.
The tool groups responses into six broad RIASEC-compatible interest areas.
Use the strongest areas to explore work environments and occupations, then verify education, skills, conditions, and opportunities separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this tell me which job I should choose?

Is this the official O*NET Interest Profiler?
No. It uses a compatible six-area structure with original Tool Nova questions and result text.
Can students take this test?
Yes. The activities are written so they can be considered without prior work experience.
