Everyone wants a job doing something they love. But where do you start? Career self-assessments provide insight into aptitude, values, and personality. These, along with a person's interests, can determine what types of work might suit and satisfy them. Help students explore popular assessment techniques and hear from other job searchers about their experiences navigating the four domains of self-assessment. Meet the people who can help interpret and gauge the validity of test results. And see how school projects and extra-curricular activities can help guide career planning.
