BBC Offers Free Careers Interest Quiz Online

The BBC offers a short psychology quiz that can help you identify which types of careers might be most suitable for you. The free, online seven-question career psychology quiz is based on John Holland's model of vocational choice. It is an attempt to determine which of the six main types of person you are:

1. Realistic
2. Conventional
3. Social
4. Enterprising
5. Artistic
6. Investigative

The quiz takes about 5 minutes or so to complete. It can be a worthwhile exercise if you are trying to determine what type of work you might be best suited for or help you decide what type of business you might want to start. It's thought provoking and you can't beat the cost (free) or the instant analysis. You aren't asked to provide any personal information whatsoever to take the quiz.

For me, the test results confirmed that I'm already doing exactly what I should be doing. That was comforting.
