How does this Work?
The Career Assessment System consists of two stages:
- The Assessment Stage
- The Feedback Stage
|
We use scientifically validated psychometric testing and in-depth interviews. We guarantee the highest quality of information for you to make a sound decision. |
The Assessment Stage:
This stage consists of 4 psychometric questionnaires which will be completed by you before we meet. These are all completed online.
They take on average two hours to complete altogether, but you can complete them one by one if this is more suitable.
These psychometric questionnaires have been approved by the British Psychological Society.
It is important to bear in mind that there is no such thing as a “bad” result. Whatever scores emerge for you are the perfect ones for you.
We ask our clients to fill out these questionnaires as quickly and as spontaneously as they can. This is in order to bypass the critical and filtering part of our minds that tries to control anything that is unfamiliar to us. Here are the questionnaires that you will work with…
1. The Interest Inventory:
You discover what work environment you would naturally gravitate towards if all blocks and obstacles were taken out of your way. This profile reveals career areas which would excite and stimulate you.
2. The Personality Profile:
This profile tracks your natural personality traits. You feel most comfortable when you are using these aspects of your personality. You have had these traits since you were very small. Every work environment calls for different mind sets. We explore work environments in which you will use your most comfortable mind set to best effect. These are the aspects of your personality you will be most happy using in the work place.
3. The Motivation Questionnaire:
This profile shows what values are most important to you. For you to be happy in the work place, your work must reflect your deepest values. This will allow you to commit to your career in the longer term. When your work reflects these qualities, you can then be most effective, productive and happy.
4. Natural Intelligences:
There are many different intelligences. This profile shows which intelligences you use most naturally, probably without even realizing it. By identifying these intelligences, you can then choose a career that uses these to best effect. When you use these intelligences in the work place you will feel more comfortable and happy. You may even discover that aspects of yourself that you previously thought were weaknesses, could in fact be strengths!
These questionnaires are completed online, and can be done in your own time. Once they are complete, you send them back to us. We then compile all of this data into a comprehensive report which will be explored at the Feedback Stage (See below).

The Feedback Stage:
This stage is 100% tailored to your needs and expectations. The duration of this session is usually 2 hours. There are 4 stages:
1. Career History:
We explore and identify patterns in your career history to date. We discuss the achievements you are most proud of in the past and how you would like to see your career progressing in the future.
2. Identifying Overall Patterns:
We study the scores of each questionnaire in depth. We look at the overall patterns and see how these can map out your future career progression.
3. Work/Life Balance:
We all know that life is never just about work. We are only really happy when we have a harmonious balance between our work lives and our personal lives. We explore what commitments and goals you have for your personal life. We then explore what future career choices would be most suitable to produce a harmonious balance between your public and personal life. We ask:
“How would you like your life to link into your work and your work to link into your life?”
4. Career Action Plan.
The Career Action Plan is made up of individual steps that you can take towards realising you new career path. We also provide you with the most up to date website links.
5. Final Report:
When our session is completed, we compile your final report. This will be sent to you via email. This final report summarises everything we discussed in the feedback session. In this way, you can fully engage with the feedback session without feeling any pressure to remember anything. This report is especially tailor-made for you.
|
It is important to bear in mind that the Career Assessment System is a process and is not suitable for those who require a “quick fix”. |
We look forward to helping you to transform your working life!
