Free Career Exploration Resources
Assessments are a great way to begin your career exploration, and we’ve made it easy for you to start researching with a compilation of free assessment tools available to you online. These online tools can help you better understand your strengths, interests, and values as you explore potential career paths.
Keep in mind that no single assessment can tell you "what you should be." Successful career planning may require multiple assessment tools. To gain a well-rounded understanding of who you are, we recommend taking multiple assessments and comparing the results. This will give you valuable insights into your personality, skills, and what excites you about the future.
