Have you ever struggled with finding the right major or career path for yourself? Try taking a Holland Code test! Developed by John L. Holland, tests that use Holland Codes look at your personality and interests to suggest a wide array of careers that might be a good fit for you. After taking the test, you are given a 3-letter code, made up of the letters RIASEC (see above for an explanation of each letter). Different combinations indicate different fields/careers that might be a good fit!
For example, my code is SAI - Social, Artistic, Investigative. The combination of these three “traits” means like I like working with people, I like being creative, and I like to be analytical and work with data. This combination means that careers such as counseling or teaching would be ideal for me!
One nice thing about this type of test is that you often end up with a variety of jobs that require different educational requirements, offer different pay, and allow you to examine your own skills, interests, and values as you consider the results.
