On this page is a brief summary of each assessment option available in the Career Resource Center.

Do What You Are™
Based on the Myers Briggs Type Indicator, the Do What You Are™ assessment is a personality test that related you to the world of work and study. A four letter code describing how you operate best will give you insight into specific fields of study and how you will get the most out of college. The Do What You Are™ assessment also allows you to see what work environment may best suit your personality. This assessment is free and can be accessed at any time from any computer by following the link above. However, you will not be able to view your full results unless they are unlocked by an instructor or you have an appointment with a career counselor.
Kuder® Career Planning System
Through the KansasCareerPipeline, PSU Career Counselors have the ability to access, administer and interpret interest, skill and work value inventories for those obtaining log-in codes from Career Services. These frequently updated inventory scales rate an individual's scores to same gender employees in various fields and compares the similarities as a percentile. Through this system, an individual can also identify specific positions within a career field and even research positions for average salary, benefits, and other job specific information.
