O*Net Interest Profiler
- My Next Move
The My Next Move Interest Profiler, developed through O*Net Online, is a short, research-based assessment that helps individuals identify their career interests based on the RIASEC model (Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, Conventional). By responding to a series of questions about preferred activities, users receive a personalized interest profile along with suggested career paths that align with their results. It serves as an accessible starting point for exploring occupations, especially for those who are early in their career development or considering new directions.
