The More Usual Interest Inventories

 

Your next site will be a little more serious, but never feel that what you find out is exactly what you should do with your life.  Interest inventories are best used to gain insights into ourselves and help us to decide what to do.  Interest inventories are tools used by many people to learn what interests the people in various careers have.  The interest inventory developers have surveyed many people happily working in different fields to determine their interests.  If you share similar interests with these people, the theory is that you will be happy in this field as well.  Please visit the Career Focus 2000 Interest Inventory at http://www.iccweb.com.  This site is the Internet Career Connection.  Please click on the interest inventory in the right hand column directly under the title Confused about a career direction.  When you have reached the log-in (you do not need to log in) page you may click on the continue button to take the interest inventory.
