New List of Promising Careers 2011 that Match Your Personality, by Career Key
Portland, OR (PRWEB) September 27, 2011
The Career Key® has just published its Promising Careers 2011 list on The Career Key Blog, careerkey.blogspot.com. When used with Career Key’s popular valid career test, the list helps people match their personality to promising careers and increase their chances of a successful career choice. Research shows choosing a career compatible with one’s personality predicts job success and satisfaction.
The list is presented in a 6-part series (all linked together at the end), with one post for each of the six Holland personality types: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional. Included with the list are “4 Smart Career Planning Strategies” to put it all in perspective.
In developing the list, Career Key defined a “promising career” as one that:
Requires more training and education beyond a high school diploma,
Promises a satisfactory or high-growth number of future job openings – a “bright outlook” according to the U.S. Department of Labor,
Exists in a growth industry or industry found nationwide, and
Provides a “living wage” job (at least a median of $ 30,000/year).
Promising careers are organized and classified by Holland’s six personality types and Career Key’s unique work groups. Holland’s Theory of Career Choice is the most popular, researched, and well-respected “trait and factor” career theory used by professional career counselors. The Career Key test is a scientifically valid assessment of Holland’s six personality types.
