Aptitude Test Services: The Rockport Pathfinder Career Testing Program ®
Why are some
people very satisfied and successful at work?
Obviously, there are many factors that influence how well you
do and how you feel about your work. By far the most important
is that your natural talents and innate abilities match very
closely with your work.
Everyone is born with
a unique group of talents that are as individual
as a fingerprint.
These talents give each person
a special ability to do certain kinds of tasks easily and happily,
yet also make other tasks seem like pure torture. Can you imagine
comedian Robin Williams as an accountant?
Talents are completely
different from acquired knowledge, skills and interests.
Your interests can
change. You can gain new skills
and knowledge. Your natural, inherited talents remain with
you for your entire life. They
are the hand you have been dealt by Mother Nature. You
can’t
change them. You can, however, learn to play the hand you
have been
dealt brilliantly and to
your best
advantage.
And that is why The Pathfinder Career
Testing Program has helped so many thousands of intelligent,
thoughtful
people all over the
world find careers they love. It is a unique, leading-edge
method of learning which careers would best fit by directly
measuring
these abilities and traits.
We measure your talents, the areas where
you would do your best and be most happy. This
testing program is completely different from the ineffective
career tests you may
have taken
previously. Most tests given by traditional and college career counselors are just based on your interests and personality type such as the "Strong" and "Myers Briggs".
While often useful, these test are insufficient for you to understand what careers really fit you. Just because you are interested in something doesn't mean you
have any
talent for it. You could love basketball but stand only four
feet tall. In addition, the old-fashioned career aptitude testing you may have taken in school is next to useless for understanding your strengths and talents.
When you understand your talents and personality, how they all
fit together, and what sort of work makes best use of them, you
have the most powerful tool available for choosing a career that
fits you perfectly.
