The Purpose of the Profiles Career XT™:
Are you in the right job?
Are you about to study what suits YOU most?
67% of employed people are in jobs that they do not enjoy
Some say: "If you love what you do, you would not have to work another day."
Choosing the right career is one of life's biggest decisions. Unfortunately, it is usually made with inadequate information.
Whether selecting a first career or experiencing a mid-life career change, proper career counselling results in vocational satisfaction.
Profiles Career XT™ does an analysis of an individual's thinking style, occupational interests, and job-related behavioural traits and compiles the data into an accurate picture of the individual. This profile is compared to hundreds of occupational profiles compiled by the Profiles International research staff, using the occupational research database of the US Department of Labour.
