In this activity, you will complete an interest inventory online, evaluate the accuracy of your results, and discuss what type of career might be best for you. Go to this website and take the interactive interest inventory. It should take 5-10 minutes to complete the inventory. After you answer the questions, the Interest Profiler tool will present the results of the assessment. In which Interest category did you rate the highest? Do you think this result matches your personal interests? After you have explored your personal interest ratings, continue with the inventory and select the level of education you want to complete for your Job Zone. In this section, you must determine what level of education you want to complete. For example, do you only want to go to college for two years, or do you want to get a graduate degree in your field of interest? After you choose your level of education and training, you will get some Job Zone results. These Job Zone results identify specific careers that match your interests. Pick three of these careers and discuss whether or not they seem like they might be a good fit for you.

Answer:

(Answers may vary.)

After completing my interest inventory, I discovered that I rate a 25 on Investigative and 21 in Artistic. I think that this is pretty accurate. For example, I rated only a 7 in Realistic, which relates to outdoors and hands-on work. The results tell me that I like to be inside and work with ideas and be creative, which sounds just like me.

In the Job Zone section, I chose a higher level of education and training because I want to go to college and get at least a four-year degree. My Job Zone results indicated that the three “Best Fit” careers were that of broadcast news analysts, music therapists, and poets, lyricists, and creative writers. I think that all of these career choices except that of a music therapist pretty much match my interests. I do like to analyze the news, and I really like to write poetry and short stories. However, I don’t really like music, so I’m not sure if a career as a music therapist would be a good fit for me.

Answer:

The interest category that I rated the highest in was "Artistic", with a rating of 22. Yes, this result definitely matches my personal interests; I've known for a while that I'd like to manage myself and become a freelance artist. I want to get about four years of college and a bachelor's degree to be able to start my career off, so "Job Zone Four: High Preparation Needed" would be a good choice of action. Graphic designer, director and an art director are the three careers that I chose.

Graphic design might be nice, but i'm not too keen on the idea of not making most of the art myself. It would also be nice to be more recognised for my work instead of just being known as the person who designed it and put it in this format.

A director would also be good, but I feel like I lack leadership skills. Though, lots of things can change over the course of a decade. I think it would be a career choice to keep in mind.

An art director would also be a desirable career, if I liked creating ideas for others. Again, lots of things change over the course of many years, so I might like to lead teams and produce new ideas for them.

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if this is right, sorry if it's late. This was my answer, so don't expect it to be the same for you. Good luck, don't let your teacher find out. <3
