It does not require an email or registration, and does not collect personal information to take the test or receive results.

FAQ: About this Career Test

Question: What is the age recommendation for this free career test?

Answer: This free career test is designed for high school students, college students, and adults in the workforce. School districts may want to consider whether or not they use it with middle school students. The Flesch Kincaid Grade Level score and Flesch Kincaid Reading Ease level place it at an 8th-grade reading level and is most appropriate for ages 13 and above. The reading level of the career test may not be suitable for kids in elementary school. High schools and colleges use the career test for academic advising and career and workforce centers use it with adults.

Question: Why is this free career test report useful for students and adults?

Answer: This is our flagship career test, and the career test results display an interest score in 15 broad career categories. There may be identical career interest level scores in more than one career category as well. When advising your students in high school or college, it’s useful to consider each career category they scored high in (the range is 0% interest to 100% interest) and consider careers that blend of two careers. For example, if test results reveal a person scored a high interest in healthcare and technology, there are data scientist careers in the healthcare field.

Question: Can you share more information about your free career tests?

Answer: These career test results are free, student-friendly, and do not require any personal information or payment to take the test. You also need no payment to unlock more detail in your free report. Everything is free. Accessing your career test results at a later time via your unique link is also free. Though children and teens can also take this, our Grade Level Reading Scores indicate it is more appropriate for people who can read at a 9th-grade level. Teachers, if you have younger students or struggling readers, you may need to be available to answer questions to ensure your students understand the statements in the career test that they may question.

Question: How can I learn more about careers after taking the test?

There are additional free career tests in this resource to help you narrow down your career interests even further. After taking the general career test on this page, take the other relevant free career tests that correlate with your high-interest score categories to gain even more insight. The additional career tests are also free and require no registration or payment of any kind. You’ll also receive a unique link and unique code to access the free career test results in the future.

Once you have a broad idea of your career interests, visit our Careers page and select a broad career category. Then, filter the careers by education level to help you narrow down the list of careers you want to research. Bear in mind that the higher the education a career requires to gain an entry-level position, the more the job often pays.  There are also additional tools for career research as well. Career information about the U.S. market can also be found in the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Handbook (link opens in a new window).

Question: Can the career test results be shared with others?
