RIASEC Personality Matching

The Holland Code system — developed by psychologist John Holland — maps your interests to 6 personality types and matches them to careers where people like you actually thrive. Used by the US Department of Labor.

OCEAN (Big Five) Traits

The most validated personality model in research psychology. We use your openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism scores to filter for career environments where you'll stay satisfied long-term.

Work Values Inventory

Based on the Minnesota Importance Questionnaire. What you value at work — autonomy, achievement, security, recognition — predicts job satisfaction better than skills alone. We weight your values against O*NET occupational data.
