Tip #2 from LinkedIn’s Student Job Hunting Handbook suggests using personality assessments to kick-start your career:
Take stock of Your Skills, Strengths & Desires
Dig deep and take stock of your skills, strengths, and desires. You can do this by taking the Strong Interest Inventory or the Myers-Briggs — both of which are offered at Bentley’s Career Services!
Uncover What Matters Most
Get a grasp on your unique personality which helps put your values into perspective. If you know your values, you will be able to find a company that will be a good fit for you.
Define What You Need to Learn
The biggest value in taking personality assessments is discovering knowledge gaps and areas of growth. This includes leadership of teamwork and of job seeking!
