Self Assesment Questionnaire

A value is something that is important to you. Different careers allow you to make choices about what you value the most. People have many similar values. The difference is how important a certain value is to you. For example, you might really like to do your work alone, while others might prefer to work with other people. As you get older and begin to make choices about careers, your values might change. However, your values are something you should think about now too. If a job fits your values you will like it better and most probably succeed in it. The list that follows can help you identify some value choices you will probably make when selecting a career. There are 20 job values arranged within groups of related values.

Directions: Read each item carefully. Select values that you consider important. When you are done, look at the items you checked. Decide which three are your most important values. Select your choice in the lists at the end of this activity.
