Career, Aptitude and
Selection Tests
If you enjoy a particular
sport or activity, it's most likely that you're good at it. The same applies to work. If
someone enjoys their job they are better motivated and, as a result, perform better.
Finding out which is the right job for you, though, is not easy.
Career, Aptitude and
Selection Tests is designed to help you assess your strengths and weaknesses in
terms of aptitude, motivation, skills and personality - and match them to the type of job
or career to which you would best be suited.
Giving clear and practical
guidance, Jim Barrett shows you how to understand:
what motivates you
what you want to do
what specific aptitudes you
have - what you do best
your personality how
you do it.
By working through the
aptitude tests and the detailed motivation and personality questionnaires, you can then
use the 'Profile Matching' section to see what particular occupation your personal
characteristics best match
whether it's a bus driver or
zoologist!
Jim Barrett is a consultant
corporate psychologist with many years' experience of advising organizations on selection
