About This Assessment

Definition of Professional Personality Type Test

Professional Personality Type Assessment Test - Symptoms and Signs

the riasec model

career guidance

personality type

This brief self-report measure is designed to support career exploration by identifying patterns of vocational interests. The Professional Personality Type Assessment is based on the RIASEC framework originally described by John L. Holland.

It consists of 30 items and typically takes about 6 minutes to complete. Respondents rate their interest in a range of activities, and responses are summarized into six interest domains (Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional) to inform discussion of preferences and potential fit with educational or occupational environments.

Results from the Professional Personality Type Assessment are intended for guidance and counseling contexts and should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical judgment and other relevant information (e.g., academic history, values, and opportunities).
