Step 1. Know yourself (Personal profile)
The first step in the career orientation process is to know who you are, to gain insight in your own unique personal profile.
This process is called self-analysis or self-assessment and is the basis for making good choices and decisions in your life.
The findings of this self-analysis together form your Personal Profile. Every person has their own unique profile and it is important to discover this for yourself. If you know who you are, what you can do and what you want ( characteristics, competences, interests, values etc), you can better determine what suits you and this helps you to give direction and make decisions.
In Know Yourself, you will be delving into different aspects of yourself.
By means of different tests (and assignments) you will look at yourself. These tests help you to gain insight into yourself. Consider the results as an indication and not so much as leading. They are also momentary snapshots, which means that the results are not fixed. Use them primarily to reflect on yourself.
Nor is this the only moment in the roadmap when you take a closer look at yourself.Through the other steps in this module you will also learn more about yourself.
When you have taken the tests, write down your main findings in a summary in your working document. This is your Personal Profile.
Be sure to add to this profile if you gain new insights about yourself in a different way.
