Career Aptitude Assessment

This assessment is grounded in John Holland's RIASEC theory of vocational choice, one of the most influential and empirically validated career frameworks. Holland proposed that people and work environments can be classified into six types: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional.

A 2008 meta-analysis in the Journal of Counseling Psychology, reviewing over 1,700 studies, confirmed that Holland's model shows strong predictive validity for career choice, job satisfaction, and occupational persistence. People in congruent careers report higher satisfaction and better performance.

We also incorporate elements of Super's Life-Span, Life-Space theory, which emphasizes that career development is a lifelong process influenced by life roles, values, and self-concept. This provides a more holistic view than interest matching alone.

Contemporary research from the Gallup Organization has found that people who use their strengths daily are six times more likely to be engaged in their work and three times more likely to report an excellent quality of life. This assessment helps identify where your natural strengths align with occupational demands.
