Abstract:
"What should I do with my life? It's one of the biggest questions we face, and one that's so easy to get wrong. Career Match helps you find the best fit for your skills, interests, and core personality-the secret to a truly satisfying professional life. Whether you're starting a job search, selecting a course of study, or hoping to switch out of a career that never clicked, just one simple quiz points you in the right direction. Derived from popular Jungian and Temperament models but focused specifically on careers, the book's 10-minute assessment and original Color Q model place you in one of 16 personality groups. For most users, the picture that emerges is uncannily accurate-illuminating their strengths and weaknesses, attractive career prospects, ideal workplaces and bosses, tailored interviewing tips, and more. Expanding on the first edition, case studies of 57 professionals and well-known personal-ities add depth and detail to the descriptions of personality types. This second edition also includes dozens of new career options, including gaming, web design, alternative energy, cybersecurity, food science, robotics, biomedical engineering, oceanography, and computer simulation"--Publisher's description.
