The JIST Career Quiz

Relax. This is a very quick and easy way for you to explore careers that include things you like to do. Just answer the questions and the little pigs that run CareerOINK's computers will present you with clusters of jobs that match your responses.

Our complicated instructions for completing the questionnaire:

Think carefully about each of the questions that follows. If you think you would or 'might' like to include in your career, then click 'Yes' in the column to the right. If you clearly would not like to include that sort of activity in your career, click 'No'. Be sure to complete all questions. The questionnaire will be most helpful if you select no more than five items for a 'Yes' response. So, if you tend to like just about everything, go back and select the five or so items that you would most like to include in your career or job.
