    A third assessment that could be recommended is an assessment measuring aptitude. Aptitude tests are given to individuals to determine inherent capacity to excel in a specific field or areas. In this case I would choose to use the Career Ability Placement Survey (CAPS) because it relates to specific choice of career. My rational is the CAPS assessment can be done in a web-based format for instant scoring, takes approximately 50 minutes and is cost effective (Drummond et al., 2015). This test is designed to assess and measure vocational competence; linking ability with choice of career states Drummond et al.,…

    My initial response to my kuder assessment was very positive. My mindset on how I wanted to decide my future career was derived from the three qualities the kuder assessment labeled me of containing.

    By doing this self-assessment I learned about my strengths. I was aware that I accept full responsibility for my actions and results of my life. Since I was a little girl, my mother bestowed in me that, “Life is nothing but the result of the choices you make.” I know that my destiny is counting on me. I know what motivates me and what choices hinder my success. Choosing between the two is the challenge; I call that self-warfare. I believed that I scored high in: accepting personal responsibility, discovering self-motivation, and adopting lifelong learning. I feel really good about my strengths.…

    The career plan building activity: reasoning aptitude helped me realize my strengths and opportunities. The results in the strength category were lower than I thought they would be.

When it came to researching, taking initiative, being innovative, organizing, and delivering results, I score 3 out of 5 possible points. I felt that with organizing and taking initiative, I would have had a higher score because I organize everything and I tend to take the initiative in a lot of situations at work, with school, and in my personal life.…

    According to the assessment, my highest score of 34 was in the category Artistic, next was Social with 32 and my last 2 categories tied at 11 in the categories Investment, and Enterprise(National Center for O*NET Development). In tying this into my Job zone assessment, my results show that I am willing to add more education in order to have a specific career. By choosing to add more to my education, I found my top career choices to be a Mental Health counselor, Marriage and Family Therapist, and a Counseling Psychologist(National Center for O*NET Development). This does not surprise me considering I have been pursuing a career in mental health. It is a good exercise to keep your plan in focus. This is important because as many career-counseling theorists suggest, a career path can often change as life changes (Niles and Bowlsbey, 2013).…
