Why should you use online career assessment tools?

Online Career Assessment Tools can be used as supporting hand but you should not completely depend on them , you should focus on more practical and theoritical understanding of your skill and become expert in that area but not depand on evaluation you got from online assessment tools this is just for your help but not for 100% dependance believe in yourself and your hard work this will take you more far then expected and you can acheive good height of success in your career.

Analysing the personality, interests, motivations and skills need scalable tools. We cannot expect a fish to fly or a crow to swim. Tools like MBTI, Holland Code etc play a vital role and have proven to be the most effective tests for career counselling assessments from many years of usage. Event, many combination tools are customised using the same principles available online. Brands may differ but still, those are the same old wine with different colours or flavours.

I see three primary reasons to use online tools. - Easy to use and handle - Accessible from anywhere and all you need is an internet-connected device - Storage, management and calculation of the data for long-term or lifetime Moreover, the tools nowadays give customised report formats which are easy to read, understand and analyse even for a novice or beginner. Why should I use a typewriter when I have an effective audio-to-text converter available?

The first and foremost consideration is the reliability. Nobody likes to see a wrong outcome even from their weigh machine. So as the career assessment tool. One of the best standards I would suggest is O-Net standard assessments which are highly reliable. The second consideration is easy to use and comprehend by the user. How can you assess me if the test is not easy for me to understand? The third one is the user reviews and experience. Even I use a test pack which is used by more than 1.5 million people by now.

Every tool will give the best when we use it in an efficient way. - Ask the client to answer most sincerely. - Tell them that the assessment is a measure of reality and not a sign of success or failure - Administer when the client is ready to take it. You can't measure my health without my support - Do not expect any specific result but go for what it shows at the end and correlate it with the client's reality. No test can give foolproof answers if the client is not sincere in the answers.

These are the opinions I have about getting the best out of the assessment tools -Administer the tests with easily comprehensible questions -Have proper readability and simple language -Help the client understand how this assessment is going to help them in career development and path-making. - Use the correlation and pre-counselling inputs to interpret and counsel the client using the results.

Remember - An assessment is just a tool and not an assurance of a career or a promising predictor of the future to anyone. Remember that you are dealing with a human being. Be empathetic to them. Understand their situations, lifestyles, motivations, socio-economical conditions, psychological stages and people surrounding them. All these may influence their careers irrespective of the assessment tools you apply to them. An assessment is a state predictor based on the answers and not a fool-proof tool. Know the human rather than trust the tools alone. A good doctor trusts in their experience, intuitions and patient's response than the blood test report at first. The thumb rule stays the same for career counsellors too
