Choosing a career is a big deal. You’ll spend a significant amount of time at work and in order to enjoy it, stay motivated, and fulfil your potential, you need to choose wisely.
To make a smart choice, you first need to know yourself and this means auditing your skills and assessing your interests and values.
It’s important to understand the skills and knowledge you possess, so you can match them to the jobs you’d like to do and see if they’re a good fit. Being aware of the skills you have also helps to highlight any gaps in your knowledge that may need to be filled in order to achieve your goals. If you’re struggling to identify your strengths, weaknesses and character traits, consider taking psychometric tests.
