Step 1

Put your six numbers in

Open your Interest Profiler results and type the score next to each area. All six, including the low ones. The low ones are half the information.

Your Interest Profiler scores

Step 2

What you already found out about yourself

You have done two of these already. Pull them up or pull them from memory. You will use them further down, because interest is only one of the things you know about yourself now.

Your Top 3 values, from Module 4

Value 1

Value 2

Value 3

Your energy audit, from Module 3

Something that gave you energy

Another one

A third, optional

Step 3

The career you did not know existed

Pick it from your own results list. If everything on the first screen looks familiar, open a low scoring area or click into a career you recognized and read its related occupations. There is always something further down.

Job title Copy it exactly as O*NET writes it. O*NET code Optional. The number on the page, something like 23-1022.00.

This career's interest code

O*NET lists it on the career page. Pick the letters from the menus so you cannot get the code wrong.

First letter

Second letter

Third letter Optional. Some careers only list two.

What the work actually is, on a normal day Not the mission statement version. Who is around them, what they are handling, what the room looks like, what they do first and what they do last.

Step 4

Why it caught you

Two parts. What the pull was, and where in your own numbers it came from.

Which was it?

Say what pulled you, and point at something in your own results Name a number or an area of yours, not just a feeling. Your shape is printed below so you can see what you have to point at.

Fill in Step 1 and Step 3 and your evidence will show up here.

Step 5

The honest fit check

This is the part that separates a real post from a nice one. Read where this career's letters land in your shape first, then write all three pieces.

Fill in Step 1 and Step 3 and the comparison will show up here.

What matches Which part of your shape does this career line up with, and which of your values or energy rows does it feed? What does not Every career has a piece that would cost you something. Name it. If you cannot find one, you have not read the job closely enough yet. This is the piece people skip, and it is worth real points.

What you would need to find out One thing you honestly cannot tell from a web page, that would change your answer if you knew it.

Your post, ready to paste

The three parts come out labeled, in the order they are graded, so nothing reads as missing.

Before you copy

Part 2

Your reply, due Sunday

One reply, to somebody whose shape does not look like yours. Put their top letters in and this will tell you whether you picked enough contrast before you spend time writing.

Their first name

Their top three areas

Their first

Their second

Their third

The career they posted about How their shape differs from yours One line. The comparison above gives you the facts. Would their career fit you, and which part of your shape says so Either answer is a good answer. What matters is that you point at a specific part of your own shape, not at a feeling. One real question about the work Something you actually want to know. End it with a question mark.

Before you copy

This tool does not send anything anywhere and nobody sees what you type in it. It tries to hold your work in this browser while you are on the page, but do not trust it with the only copy. Build your text and copy it out before you close the tab.
