Seven Rules for Career Tests

By CareerBuilder.com

Are you dissatisfied with your current job? If so, you're not alone. A recent survey conducted by CareerBuilder.com revealed that nearly 75 percent of workers are still in search of their dream jobs. To help you identify jobs that better suit your style and interests, consider taking a career or personality test -- or two.

Richard Nelson Bolles, author of 'What Color is your Parachute?,' also maintains a Web site for job seekers, and has devoted an entire section of the site to career interest and personality tests. "The key to a happy and fulfilling future is knowing yourself. This self-knowledge is the most important component of finding the right career," he says. Tests and quizzes can aide in the self-discovery process.
