What are Personality and Career Interest Inventories for Teens and Young Adults
Personality and career interest inventories are assessments that evaluate interests, personality traits, strengths, and preferences. The results suggest careers that could align with natural tendencies and interests.
Interest – What activities, subjects, and types of work the teen prefers, such as creative, analytical, or hands-on
Personality Traits – If the teen is introverted or extroverted, their decision-making style, and other preferences.
Strengths – Natural talents, skills, and academic strengths, and how these could be translated to a professional career
Work Environment Preferences – Structured vs. flexible preferences and team-based work vs. independent work

After testing
As part of the results, you will be provided a list of potential careers and industries that align with your personality and career interest inventories results. This can help you and your teen select college majors, extracurricular activities, and courses. This type of testing is meant to be used as a guide to explore what jobs your teen might like and is a great way to encourage volunteering and job shadowing, so your teen can get experience that aligns with their interests.
