I value criticism, however, I tend to approach and acknowledge the positive qualities in a person before I begin criticizing. Criticism is an opportunity for me to encourage a staff, company or individual instead of hurting feelings and disciplining. I love to motivate and support efforts that have sincere potential and are striving for a good cause.

A. Look at your “Work Style” rating. What does your score suggest to you in relation to the occupations you listed above?

Score: 68, All of the occupations require an individual who is outgoing and energetic. I am a passionate person. When I am given as assignment I would rather “over do it” than just “do it.” I enjoy working with people and developing strategies to improve.

B. Look at your “Learning Environment” rating. How do the educational requirements of the occupations you listed fit with your interest to pursue additional training?

Score: 39, The occupation, ‘Buyer’, will hire an individual with as low as a High School Diploma. If that is field I want to pursue, even though I tend to be impatient with time constraints, I consider Education to be valuable. So, I will still invest my time and efforts in a Bachelor’s or higher even in seeking ‘Buyer’ as a profession. This makes me more qualified in a competitive market. I am a practical learner. If I do not see what is being taught, than I will most likely have difficulty picturing the concept in my head for future reference.

C. Look at your “Leadership Style” rating. How do these occupations fit your personal

Score: 60, I have no trouble expressing my opinion, even under scrutiny. However, I feel I take criticism well because I am always looking for opportunities to improve. I would rather teach by example for sake of credibility. As an educator in Finances or Accounting, I would live my life according to those standards of being smart and practical with numbers and maintaining a budget and being selective on how to spend. If I am consistent with this lifestyle, I am a more credible educator.

D. Look at your “Risk Taking/Adventure” rating. Explain how the occupations do or do not match your risk taking style.

Score: 39, For the most part, I do not like taking risks for the sake of predictability. I would avoid a job that is based on commission such as Sales, Buyers and Marketing. I prefer a salary that I can count on, even if I risk making less money. I function better and have less stress when I know how to plan. However, in the risks that I HAVE taken has built character and strengths I would otherwise never have known about myself. Administrative Assistant is a realistic occupation for it has potential to be structured and professional, yet there might be a few requirements that will challenge my comfort of predictability.
