of power to make decisions and carry out projects.

Organizing
Organizing jobs involve managing data, information, and processes. Organizers like to work in
structured environments to complete tasks with precision and accuracy.

Your Top Interests


Your primary interest area is also called your career type. Your career type describes the kind of job
tasks and activities you enjoy doing, as well as what motivates and satisfies you at work. Certain
personality traits and characteristics are associated with each career type.

Your secondary interest area shows what sorts of interests you may have, beyond your primary interest
area. You can use your secondary interest area to get additional ideas and information about the career
that may fit you.

Your primary interest area is Persuading


As a Persuader, you are driven to lead, influence, motivate, and direct other people. You are interested
in making your mark on the world by impacting the perspectives and decisions of others. You enjoy
feeling powerful and important, and want to lead the way.

Confident
Ambitious
Adventurous

Because you are a Persuader, you will often gravitate to roles that allow you to sell other people on
products, projects, or initiatives. You will find a natural home in the business world, but will enjoy any
role where you can set a course of action and use your ingenuity and influence to achieve your goals.
You may feel drawn to entrepreneurship and enjoy the risk inherent in starting a new venture.

Persuaders tend to be natural salespeople with a high energy level and enthusiasm for engaging with
others. They are typically good at developing rapport with others, although they may overwhelm some
with their aggressive drive. They are typically competitive, goal-oriented, and ambitious.

Persuaders like their work best when they can chase exciting goals, promote new ideas, and close
important deals. As a Persuader, your primary career goal will be to find a job where you can take the
lead to start and carry out initiatives, act quickly and decisively to set a course, and use your charisma to
influence others.

Your secondary interest is Organizing


Because you have a secondary interest in Organizing, you will be interested in working with data,
processes, and systems. You enjoy putting things in order and completing tasks in a systematic fashion.
You appreciate a structured work environment where rules, policies, and standard procedures are clear
and well enforced.

To satisfy your interest in Organizing, look for roles that allow you to keep orderly systems in place. You
may enjoy office and administrative work, especially working with systems, records, and files. You like to
maintain structure and enforce the rules, and want to work in an environment that is well organized and
predictable.

Careers to Explore
In this section, we'll show you the top careers that match your interest profile. There are a few things to
keep in mind as you read over these career suggestions:

1. These career titles are just a starting point. The careers listed here are among the most commonly
found in the labor market and are careers that many people will recognize, like lawyer or physician.
However, many people have jobs that don't exactly fit any of the descriptions listed here. You might end
up with a job that combines several of these typical roles. You might have a job that's specific to one
company or industry. Or you might invent a new career altogether! In short, do not limit your
imagination to the jobs listed here. These are a representative sample of jobs that fit your personality,
but they do not cover every possibility or opportunity that you will come across in your career path. 

2. Your individuality is key. The careers in this section are listed generally by how well they fit your
interest profile. However, you should not assume that the first career on the list is the best career for
you, that the second career listed is the second-best, and so on. You may find careers that spark your
interest anywhere on this list. You may also see several careers that do not interest you at all. This is
normal and does not mean that your results are not accurate! Everyone is unique, and even someone

3. Ultimately, the choice is yours. Because no assessment can tell you exactly which career will be
perfect for you, the best way to think of this list is as a starting point for your career research. You can
use this list to get ideas of careers that may suit you, but you'll still need to read more about each career
that interests you, do real-world research (like interviewing or shadowing people in the field), and
evaluate each career according to your own personal criteria. We'll discuss this in more detail later in
your report, but for now, just read over this list with an open mind. See if any career ideas stand out as
particularly interesting, and which seem worthy of further inspection.

With that in mind, let's look at some careers!

Now that you’ve reviewed some possible careers, you may be wondering where to go next. Perhaps your
list of suggested careers seems overwhelming and confusing. Perhaps you saw some career ideas that
sounded interesting, but you’re not sure how to proceed, or how to decide which is really best for you.
This section is designed to give you a roadmap that you can use to navigate forward as you explore your
career possibilities.

As you continue in your career search, it will be crucial that you have a system for evaluating your
opportunities. You need a well-defined approach to looking at various careers and deciding whether
they are worth further exploration. You’ve already taken the first step by assessing your interests, but
now the task is to take that self-knowledge and translate it into a game plan for exploring your career
options.

The first step is to clearly understand your criteria for the career path you seek. You don’t need to know
exactly which career is right for you, but you do need to know what you are looking for. You must
understand the factors which are more important to your happiness and satisfaction in a career.
Equally, you must understand the aspects of a career that you want to avoid, so that you don’t end up in
a job that frequently requires you to do things that are not a good fit.

This section will suggest some criteria that you may want to use as part of your career exploration
process. These are based on your interest profile, but you will probably find that some of the suggested
criteria seem more relevant to you than others. You may also find that you want to add to what is given
here. Use these suggestions as a starting point to build your own system of evaluating possible careers.

What Makes Your Ideal Career?


In choosing a career, you want to be mindful of the factors that are most important to you. Many of
these factors will be based on your interests and personality, but some will be unique to you. This
section will provide you with some guidance in the factors that may be important to you in your career
search. 

Satisfying your core needs


An ideal career should satisfy your most fundamental motivations to work. Although everyone wants to
feel a sense of purpose, we all differ in how we like to feel that we contribute. To understand what sort
of career will be satisfying, you must understand the factors that create satisfaction for you.

Below, you will see a list of the factors that are most likely to be important to you in a career. Generally,
if a career has all or most of these factors, you will find the day-to-day work satisfying. As you explore
different careers, you can use this list as a sort of checklist for each potential career. The more closely a
career seems to fit your list of core needs, the more likely you'll be happy with it in the long term.

Your Core Needs:

Increase my power and standing within my field


Promote novel ideas and impact key decisions to make my mark on the world

Doing tasks and activities that suit you


One of the most important aspects of job satisfaction is the extent to which your daily work fits with
your preferred types of activities. Although this may seem obvious, it can be easy to overlook the
mundane day-to-day aspects of a job that sounds exciting in the abstract. Before you decide a job is
right for you, be sure you understand what the everyday tasks of that job entail, and compare these
tasks with your preferred tasks listed below.

Your Preferred Tasks:

Selling products or services


Leading or managing a team
Pitching ideas or initiatives
Starting a new business or other venture
Speaking in front of groups of people
Influencing people to your way of thinking

Avoiding what you don't like


Almost as important as understanding what tasks you enjoy is understanding which tasks and activites
you would prefer to avoid. If some parts of a job are very appealing to you, but other aspects are boring,
irritating, or otherwise unpleasant, it's unlikely you'll be happy in that job over the long term.

For each career you're considering, take stock of the typical daily activities and make sure that you will
not have to spend significant time on tasks you don't enjoy. Although nobody has a job that they love all
the time, it is important to avoid career paths that require a lot of time spent on activities that you
simply aren't suited to.

Tasks to Avoid:

Researching scientific principles and theories


Gathering and analyzing data
Developing and testing hypotheses
Using logic and reason to form conclusions
Reading and learning to increase knowledge and understanding
Applying expertise to devise innovative solutions

Asking the important questions

But it’s also important that you ask questions that are personal to you and your interests. These
questions will help you dial in to the careers that will suit your personality. Here, we suggest some
questions that you may want to ask about each career you are seriously considering. 

You might answer these questions by doing research online, in books, magazines, or trade journals, or
by interviewing people in the field. You may find that the answers to some questions are not a clear
“yes” or “no,” and that’s fine. The goal is not to get black-and-white answers to every question, but to
gain a better and more complete understanding of whether a career is a good fit for you.

Your Key Questions:

Will this career allow me to influence and motivate other people?


Will I feel powerful and important in this career?
Will this career allow me to take risks and pursue exciting achievements?
Will this career give me a platform to share my ideas and persuade other people to my point of
view?
