Career assessment has become misleading for job hunting. Experts remind you to only refer to it and not rely on it

Published: May 9, 2007 Edit:

Experts point out: Career assessment is just a way for people to understand themselves. Do not regard it as a framework and regulations for future careers. Only by effectively combining the assessment results with the actual situation of job hunting can you find a job that best suits you.

After graduating from Beijing Normal University, Xiao Yang received career guidance from professionals at a career assessment and planning agency. The assessment results showed that she was suitable for jobs related to public relations and human resources, so she focused on job hunting in the fields of public relations and human resources.

However, less than two months after she was hired to work at a public relations company, she felt physically and mentally exhausted and exhausted. Soon, she quit this job and found an editing job that she liked more in a magazine. She felt that she was more comfortable dealing with words.

What exactly does a career assessment bring to job seekers? Are the assessment results necessarily the destination for job seekers? Every time he completes a career assessment for a consultant, Yuan Bo, a career planner from Beijing College Student Employment Home, will give him a message:Don’t treat career assessment as a myth, it can only be used as a reference.

Yuan Bo introduced that career assessment is based on modern psychology, education and sociology, using quantifiable testing methods such as psychological tests and situation simulations to scientifically evaluate people's abilities, personality, career interests, life values and other factors to help job seekers objectively understand their career trends and their own business capabilities. Career assessment can be roughly divided into two types: one is to help individuals plan and manage their careers; the other is to help companies select talents and allocate positions. Chi Yingmei, an assessment expert and project manager at Beijing Beisen Assessment Technology Co., Ltd., with a Ph.D. in psychology, believes that conducting career assessments can help people understand themselves better and help determine future development directions.

Jobs in sociology are not easy to find, but I gave up several job opportunities because I always felt that my heart belonged elsewhere.After a period of psychological weighing, Li Yonggang, a graduate student at Peking University, found the w88 casino’s employment guidance teacher for a career assessment. The results showed that he was suitable for research on ancient characters. Li Yonggang majored in journalism as an undergraduate and switched to sociology as a graduate student. When facing employment, he felt that he disliked both majors. The bookshelves in Li Yonggang's dormitory are full of books related to Chinese studies. The dense reading marks in the books are surprising.I am from3I have been reciting the Four Books and Five Classics since I was 9 years old. I conducted in-depth research and thinking on Chinese studies during college and graduate w88 casino. I have read almost all the books on the bookshelf3More than once. From college to now, I insist on reading classical Chinese every morning. But the professional dependence of employment caused me to ignore my true inner thoughts. After getting the results of the career assessment, I thought about it all night and finally figured out where to go.

Chi Yingmei said:Before applying for a job or choosing a career, it is very important to fully understand yourself. Characteristics that individuals are aware of but cannot explain clearly, career assessment can systematically describe and analyze these characteristics, allowing us to grasp ourselves more rationally.

Zhuo, a student from Guangzhou University, looked frustrated. She had not found a job one year after graduation because she had decided to become a teacher.When I graduated, I took a career test online, and the result analysis showed that I was suitable to be a teacher. I couldn’t do it in Guangzhou10No middle w88 casino was interested in me, and some even refused to accept my resume.She is still obsessed with the results of the evaluation despite running into obstacles everywhere,The evaluation software must be highly scientific, and I must have the potential to be a teacher, but the employer has not discovered it yet.

Chi Yingmei thinks:To be precise, career assessment is a tool for understanding yourself. It can urge you to think about certain issues, explore your innermost being, and plan for your future. Assessments can reflect your characteristics, strengths and weaknesses, potential, career development tendencies, etc., but they are not sufficient proof of individual specific work abilities. Do not regard it as a framework and regulation for future careers, and you cannot rely entirely on assessment results to find a job. Only by effectively combining the assessment results with the actual situation of job hunting can you find a job that best suits you.Career planner Yuan Bo also believes that the role of career assessment cannot be blindly exaggerated, let alone used as the only guiding standard in the job search process.

When I first entered w88 casino, I took a career assessment plan under the guidance of my teacher. I took it again recently, and the assessment results showed that I am suitable for challenging jobs.Huang Weihang is from Guangdong South China Agricultural University03grade undergraduate student, because he served as deputy secretary of the college party committee in the w88 casino,I often organize some activities in w88 casino. Familiar teachers and friends have suggested that I engage in work in organization and management. However, I am more inclined to work as a civil servant.Huang Weihang believes that the results of the career assessment do not have much impact or guiding significance on his job search,Although I am very willing to accept this kind of assessment, I feel that through the assessment I can increase my understanding of myself, such as my personality

Yao Yao from China Youth University of Political Science also pointed out very rationally,Suitable for a certain jobIt only has a probabilistic significance. Many conditions in reality restrict our job search choices, such as the resources we possess and accidental opportunities. These factors are variables that cannot be considered in professional ability assessment.

What needs to be pointed out in particular is that at present, the professional assessment institutions in our country are of mixed quality. In formal assessment institutions, scientific psychological assessment can play a certain role in promoting the development of people through the explanation of formal professional assessors. However, if career assessment is conducted at a non-professional assessment agency, it will have a negative impact on your career.Chi Yingmei said,When conducting assessments, you need to choose more authoritative assessment tools and use psychological credibility measurement standards, which generally must reach0.6Above.

It is understood that career assessment has just started in China, and most assessment software is imported from abroad. Due to differences in language systems, Chinese and Western cultures, customs and habits, there are big problems with the applicability of assessment software.
