Description

Career Guide helps you find a career bymatching your interests, skills, and knowledge with the interest,skill, and knowledge characteristics of over 1000 differentoccupations. Start by taking an interests quiz that will classifyyour interests into distinct categories.

Pick a career target to reveal knowledge and skill gaps betweenyour target and your current job. And see what job opportunitiesexist for the career you've chosen.
How does this work
The careers and the career characteristics in this app are based onversion 16.0 of the Occupational Information Network (O*NET)database. The interest quiz is based on questions and interestclassifications in the O*NET Interest Profiler. O*NET is developedunder the sponsorship of the US Department of Labor/Employment andTraining Administration (USDOL/ETA) through a grant to the NorthCarolina Employment Security Commission. This app uses theinformation publicly provided by these organizations but is notendorsed by them in any way.

Version 16.0 of the O*NET database contains over 1000occupations and related characteristics. Although this database isquite extensive, there are some minor gaps in characteristics forsome of the careers. Where there are gaps, we have taken data fromsimilar careers and averaged their characteristics to fill in thegaps. For each career listed, values for each interest, skill, andknowledge characteristic were taken from the O*NET database andwere normalized across the reported values for that characteristic.This normalization resulted in scores ranging from 1 to 100 foreach characteristic for each occupation.

To match careers to characteristics, each occupation'scharacteristic profile is compared to the characteristics specifiedand the overall % match is calculated. A perfect match would resultin an overall score of 100%. Occupations with the highestcharacteristic match are listed first.

Qualifiers are treated differently. They are criteria that mustbe met for an occupation to be displayed. So, for example, ifsalaries "Over $50,000" is selected, no occupations with a salarylower than $50,000 will display.
