INTRODUCTION

Thank you for completing your career report. Our vision is to simplify career decision making and enable you to make great
career choices that match your skills, values and interests.
There are many ways individuals’ careers develop, and different ways in which individuals make career choices. Here is our
suggested career development path if you are feeling a bit stuck or unsure about how to proceed.

1. CAREER CHOICE
Knowing yourself
In this first step you are encouraged to first know yourself. What are you good at? What do you like doing? What is important
to you in a career and what type of work environment would you like to work in? What are your interests and do you have any
current options in mind? What restrictions do you face in terms of location, work structure, pay or further education?
Knowing the world
Once you know yourself, it’s time to start understanding the world of work. What types of occupations are a good match for
your skills, values and work type preferences? What are the requirements of entry for the occupations you are interested in – for
example what education and experience is typically required? Do a risk assessment of your options – how competitive is it to
get into the occupations you are considering? If you can’t find this information yourself – try reaching out to someone already
working in the field.
Testing it out
Once you have narrowed down your options to a small number, it is time to test them out. Sometimes doing a few days work
experience, volunteering, job shadowing, or even having a 30 minute conversation with someone working in that occupation can
be invaluable in helping you figure out if an option is the right fit for you.
Decision making
After completing the above stages and refining your options it is time to make a decision. Some tools that can help people
with decision making include having a conversation with a careers advisor or someone you know who is good at listening in an
unbiased and non-judgemental way. Making a list of pros and cons on paper can help you sort through your thoughts. Sometimes
people need more time to make a decision, and might benefit from spending more time on the above career development stages
of knowing themselves, knowing the world and testing it out (possibly through work experience).

2. GETTING READY
This is the intermediate stage between deciding what you would like to do and making it happen – when you complete any
education required for your occupation of choice and gain the required work experience.

3. MAKING IT HAPPEN
This is the final stage where you start job searching, prepare your application materials (CV, Cover letter and Application forms),
update your LinkedIn profile and prepare for assessment and interviews.

HOW DOES THE CAREER REPORT FIT IN?

The Career Report helps you with the first step – career choice. It helps you understand what is important for you in your future
career. It also helps you to start to explore the world of work by suggesting some job matches that best fit your skills, values
and work type preferences profile.

SKILLS

Transferrable skills are can be transferred from one job to another. When completing your questionnaire you
indicated how good you were at these skills, and whether you would like to be using these skills. From your
answers we categorise your unique skills profile of strengths, growth areas, chores and weaknesses.

Strengths are skills that you both enjoy and are good at. Your
highest strengths appear first.

Growth skills are those that you enjoy but are not yet good at.
With effort and practice they might convert into strengths for you
in the future.

Chores are skills that you do not enjoy but you are good at. You
do these things well but they feel like work - and you need some
extrinsic motivation to apply them.

Weaknesses are skills that you neither enjoy nor are good at.
