career test

Results

This questionnaire is designed to get you thinking about the sort of jobs that might suit your style.

John Holland's model of vocational choice suggests that people with particular interests and styles tend to favour certain types of jobs. Holland described six main types of person:

• Realistic
• Conventional
• Social
• Enterprising
• Artistic
• Investigative

Knowing the types you most (and least) fit can help you think about the types of role that may suit you.

Read below to find out what careers you seem to be suited to based on your results in the test:

Investigative

Your results suggest that Investigative type work might suit your interests and preferences.

Investigative types prefer thinking to action, they like working with information and may prefer working with ideas rather than with people. They tend to like jobs in which they can research, analyse and solve problems (or come up with new problems!) and prefer using their brains to their interpersonal skills. Typical roles that suit Investigative types are scientist, engineer, laboratory worker, computer programmer, pharmacist and vet.

Enterprising

Your results suggest that Enterprising type work is less likely to suit your interests.

Enterprising types like persuading and influencing people as well as controlling, managing and selling to them. They like to take a lead and are often quite motivated and ambitious but may be impatient and can find rules and detail frustrating. They tend to favour roles such as salesperson, manager, estate agent, supervisor, lawyer, advertising or marketing executive and often like positions that have status and prestige.

Social

Your results suggest that Social type work is less likely to suit your interests.

Social types like roles that focus on helping, teaching or supporting others and very much prefer working with people to working with things or ideas. They tend to prefer working in teams and like to feel they are doing something useful. Typical roles for social types include teacher, counsellor, nurse, minister of religion, clinical psychologist or police officer.

Conventional

Your results suggest that Conventional type work is less likely to suit your interests.

Conventional types are happy to work within systems and large organisations and tend to focus on accuracy and efficiency, preferring to know what is expected of them. They tend to like things to be organised and predictable and are often involved in roles that involve recording, sorting, documenting and organising. Typical roles for Conventional types include the range of administrative and clerical roles (e.g. in the government and financial sectors) as well as accountancy, banking, bookkeeping, secretarial work and some inspecting roles.

Realistic

Your results suggest that Realistic type work is less likely to suit your interests.

Realistic types generally prefer action to words, they like physical activity and may prefer working with things to working with people. They tend to favour jobs where they can work with their hands or produce things, and often like outdoor work. Typical roles that suit Realistic types are gardener, mechanic, driver, electrician, farmer, sportsperson, skilled trades, labourers and some engineering and military roles.

This brief questionnaire can't tell you exactly what you should do. It only suggests work areas to think about that may match the way you like to work but it can't tell you whether you have the skills and qualifications for these jobs.

Your answers suggest you are a Realist The four aspects that make up this personality type are: Summary of Realists Loyal and steady workers who meet deadlines Believe in established rules and respect facts Think of themselves as mature, stable and conscientious May appear too logical or tough-minded and forget their impact on other people More about Realists Realists are loyal to the people around them and work hard to keep their promises. They are honest and straightforward with others and expect the same in return. Realists believe in standard procedures and will only support change when there is a demonstrable benefit. Realists are the most common personality type in the UK, according to a nationwide survey. Realists respect factual information, which they store up to use when making decisions. This group likes to have time to think quietly and carefully before taking action. These extremely productive people like to be occupied in their leisure time with pursuits such as craftwork, hiking or reading. In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Realists may become obsessed with schedules, critical of others or have trouble trusting other people to get the job done properly. Under extreme stress, Realists may complain loudly that events have taken a turn for the worse and predict negative outcomes. Realists typically only share their opinions or personal experiences with trusted friends. Realist Careers Realists are attracted to jobs where decision making based on factual knowledge and experience is required. It's important to remember that no survey can predict personality type with 100 percent accuracy. Experts say that we should use personality type to better understand ourselves and others, but shouldn't feel restricted by our results.

color test

Your Existing Situation

Unable to exert the efforts to achieve his objectives. Feels neglected, desiring greater security, warm affection, and fewer problems.

Your Stress Sources

Suppresses his innate enthusiasm and imaginative nature, for fear that he might be carried away by it only to find himself pursuing some will-o'-the-wisp. Feels he has been misled and abused and has withdrawn to hold himself cautiously aloof from others. Keeps a careful and critical watch to see whether motives towards him are sincere--a watchfulness which easily develops into suspicion and distrust.

Your Restrained Characteristics

Feels that he is burdened with more than his fair share of problems. However, he sticks to his goals and tries to overcome his difficulties by being flexible and accommodating.

Unhappy at the resistance he feels whenever he tries to assert himself. However, he believes that there is little he can do and that he must make the best of the situation.

Your Desired Objective

Urgently in need of rest, relaxation, peace, and affectionate understanding. Feels he has been treated with a lack of consideration and is upset and agitated as a result. Regards his situation as intolerable as long as his requirements are not complied with.

Your Actual Problem

Needs to protect himself against his tendency to be too trusting, as he finds it is liable to be misunderstood or exploited by others. Is therefore seeking a relationship providing peaceful and understanding intimacy, and in which each knows exactly where the other stands.

Your Actual Problem #2

Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of his hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. He is trying to escape from this into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, protecting him from dissatisfaction and lack of appreciation.

You plan ahead, and are interested in beauty, design, outward appearance, and symmetry.
You are a person who thinks before acting, intelligent and thorough.

teaser.... spruks album....
timmy :)

something soooo bad, nakaka guilty....

My mom only had
one eye.
i hated her... she was such an
embarrassment..
my mom ran a small shop at a flea market.
she collected little weeds and such to
sell...
anything for the money we needed
she was such an embarrassment.
there was this one day during elementary
school..
it was field day, and my mom came.
i was so embarrassed. how could she do
this to
me? i threw her a hateful look and ran out.

the next day at school...
"your mom only has one eye?!?!" ..and
they
taunted me.
i wished that my mom would just
disappear from
this world
so i said to my mom,
"mom.. why dont you have the other eye?!
if you're only gonna make me a
laughingstock,
why dont you just die?!!!"
my mom did not respond..
i guess i felt a little bad, but at the same
time, it
felt good to think that i had said what i'd
wanted to
say all this time..
maybe it was because my mom hadnt
punished
me,
but i didnt think that i had hurt her
feelings very
badly.

that night...
i woke up, and went to the kitchen to get
a glass
of water.
my mom was crying there, so quietly, as if
she
was afraid that she might wake me.
i took a look at her, then turned away.
because of the thing i had said to her
earlier, there
was something pinching at me in the
corner of my
heart.
even so, i hated my mother who was
crying out of
her one eye. so i told myself that i would
grow up
and become successful.
cause i hated my one-eyed mom and our
desperate poverty..

then i studied real hard.
i left my mother and came to Seoul and
studied,
and got accepted in the Seoul University
with all
the confidence i had.

then, i got married.
i bought a house of my own.
then i had kids, too..
now i'm living happily as a successful
man.
i like it here because it's a place that
doesnt
remind me of my mom.

this happiness was getting bigger and
bigger,
when..

what?!
who's this?!
...it was my mother...
..still with her one eye.
it felt as if the whole sky was falling apart
on me.
my little girl ran away, scared of my
mom's eye.
and i asked her,

"who are you?!"
"i dont know you!!!" as if trying to make
that real. i
screamed at her," how dare you come to
my
house and scare my daughter!"


"GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!"

and to this, my mother quietly answered,
"oh, i'm so sorry. i may have gotten the
wrong
address,"
and she disappeared out of sight.


thank good ness... she doesnt recognize
me..
i was quite relieved.

i told myself that i wasnt going to care, or
think
about this for the rest of my life.
then a wave of relief came upon me...

one day, a letter regarding a school
reunion came
to my house. so, lying to my wife that i
was going
on a business trip, i went.
after the reunion, i went down to the old
shack,
that i used to call a house...just out of
curiosity

there, i found my mother fallen on the
cold ground.
but i did not shed a single tear.
she had a piece of paper in her hand.... it
was a
letter to me.

my son...
i think my life has been long enough now..

and... i wont visit Seoul anymore...
but would it be too much to ask if i
wanted you to
come visit me once in a while?
i miss you so much.. and i was so glad
when i
heard you were coming for the reunion.
but i decided not to go to the school.
...for you...
and i'm sorry that i only have one eye,
and i was
an embarrassment for you.

you see, when you were very little, you
got into
an
accident, and lost your eye. as a mom, i
couldnt
stand watching you having to grow up
with only
one eye... so i gave you mine...
i was so proud of my son that was seeing a
whole
new world for me, in my place, with that
eye. i
was
never upset at you for anything you did..
the
couple times that you were angry with
me,.. i
thought to myself, 'it's because he loves
me..'

my son... oh, my son...

poor jimny

accenture test

so bale kahapon eh nag test nga ako sa accenture, grabe ang aga kong gumising! mga 430 ata eh nanggigising na ung aming alarm cat, si sushi (eto ung lalaking pusa namin na mataba). so un, eh since maaga rin naman ako natulog, earlier than the usual, nagising naman ako. sobrang aga rin kasi ng ate ko at ung younger sis ko kaya un, maaga lahat ng tao umalis sa bahay. eh ang sched ko ay 8 pa, sa sobrang aga eh 720 ata eh andun na ako sa libran building. medyo naninibago ung katawan kong gumising ng maaga,plus nawiwiwi ako sa lamig nung kotse so nag starbucks muna ako, hehe ang yabang pa nga ng dating ko ata sa ibang taong kasabay kong nag test eh, kasi parang feeling ko, feeling nila ang yabang ko, pa starbux starbux lang, easy easy, ganun hehe parang kampante masyado sa test. so there, we waited until the guard let us in the building.

as soon as we entered the lobby, the receptionist told us to check if we were on the list and then, answer the application form, etc. if i remembered correctly, i was the only atenean in our batch,and it seemed like most of the other people there had computer background( for example, the person who sat beside me was a graduate of computer engineering from AMA College) and so there, we filled up the forms etc, and then we were called to go in the testing room already.

i was so impressed initially, with their test because it was all computerized, self-paced test pero in a way you had to hurry up in answering the tests because there were so many parts and the pressure to perform was also there ( shempre i had to prove myself worthy to be there in the midst of all these computer techy people). the proctor explained every thing,every detail about the job we were being offered, etc. she said that the tests were for both the techie side and the business process outsourcing. i was listening to her explanations which jojo already mentioned to us spruks before, so there. i was really more interested in the business process outsourcing because that was the one with the HR related job hehe.

after all the explanations, we started the tests. at first i was in way pressured to finish ahead of time because angelo and patching said that i have to finish fast on the first part, and then i can take time on the latter part. i was doing fine during the tests, i even noticed that i was doing much faster that the other people around me. in a way,that was nice, because i could still go over my answers to make sure they are correct, that all numbers were answered, etc. everything wasfine until i felt the urge to pee. i guess the warmness of the hotchoco from starbucks is taking its effect on my body, sending signals that i have to let go of some waste or else i might look like im having a hard time with the tests. to top it all, i felt my tummy grumbling as if i needed to poop, given that i already did that morning before we left. UH-OH! i need to do something about it. at first i tried to focus on the test that i was answering at that time. i wanted to make sure that i do answer it properly, etc. and then after that part, i would ask to go to the rest room. fortunately, the proctor allowed me to, but the problem was, she never mentioned that the CR was on the OTHER building, on the SECOND floor! i had to do it or else i wouldnt be able to finish the tests with the best possible answers that i could think of. after going all the hassles of going to the next building, taking the stairs to the second floor, i was finally able to unload. when i came back, i only had 2 minutes to finish that part. in my mind i said, that it was better for me to sacrifice one part than to sabotage the whole test because i wasnt nor able to concentrate. after peeing, i was now relaxed and was more focused on answering the tests, and made sure that i the "sacrifice" i took was worth it.

after finishing the tests, i submitted my requirements and left.
