Career test result


In this test you had to choose between pictures showing specific work
activities. Each picture depicted work associated with a specific type of
personality. These types are derived from Dr. John Holland's theory of
careers and vocational choice, known as Holland Codes.

There are six personality types in Holland's model:

Realistic: practical, physical, concrete, hands-on, machine, and tool-


oriented
Investigative: analytical, intellectual, scientific, explorative, thinker
Artistic: creative, original, independent, chaotic, inventive, media,
graphics, and text
Social: cooperative, supporting, helping, healing/nurturing, teaching
Enterprising: competitive environments, leadership, persuading,
status
Conventional: detail-oriented, organizing, clerical

Personality types and Holland Codes

Dr. Holland did not say that a person is just one of these types. Then there
would be only six types of people in the world. Instead, any one person
can have interests associated with all of the six types. When you rank the
types, starting with those you have the most interest in to those you have
the least interest in, you get your specific Holland Code.

There are some 720 different combinations possible, like ISERAC, AIRSEC,
or CSERIA. Generally, however, only two or three letters are necessary to
create a useful description, such as SC, IRC, or AIC. Such a description may
apply to both a person and a work environment. By typifying both people
and work environments with Holland Codes, we can calculate matches
between them. This helps you assess a potential career or vocational
choice.

Your personal Holland Code

Depending on how strongly you favor any specific type you can compose
your own personal Holland Code. You do this by taking the first letters of
the types you favor most. In your case, this is the letters S, C and E Your
personal Holland Code then becomes either SCE, SC, CS or even CSE.
