Questionnaire 1 - Job Titles

The purpose of this exercise is to choose your preference between different types of work. The aim is to see what sort of work appeals to you most. Look at each group of jobs. There are seven in each set. Decide which one of the seven appeals to you most and input a 1 in the corresponding box. Then look at the remaining six jobs and see which one appeals to you most then input 2 in the corresponding box. Then do the same with the other jobs. You will have effectively sorted the original list into your own, preferred list based on which appeals to you most and least. With this exercise, focus on what you are interested in doing rather than what you think you're capable of. When you've completed all 12 groups, move through to the next exercise.

Motivations - Job Activities - Part 1
The purpose of this exercise is to indicate your preference between two job activities. Look at each pair of jobs or job descriptions. You have 3 points to share between the two options in a way that will show how much they appeal to you. If one appeals to you a great deal, you would give all 3 points to that one, and no points to the other. If one appeals to you slightly more than the other, give 2 points to that and 1 point to the activity you prefer less. Input the points you decide to award in the corresponding boxes. As with the job title exercise, focus on what you are most interested, instead of what you think you're capable of.
