Vocational Interests Australasia (VIA)
This vocational interest inventory is based on the Holland search approach to career guidance. It is designed for school leavers post year 10, university graduates and adults making their first serious career choice or adults already in the work force in career transition.
Through a 60 item forced choiced questionnaire, this inventory links personal interests to work roles and specific jobs. (Untimed: completion time varies but allow 20 minutes).
Self-Assessments (From RMIT University website)
Career decisions start with a process of self-assessment. What are you good at? What do you like and dislike? What are your principal achievements? And so on. The Assessment Centre will help you self-assess online – take a personality test, audit your skills, consider different decision making styles and much more. Work your way through the Assessment Centre to conduct a personal inventory that will open your eyes to new options, help you understand your decisions and give you the insight to act appropriately.
