5. The Focus 2 Career Assessment tests to match the best career field for you.
- It uses assessments based on your response to questions in certain categories
- Work Interests, Personality, Leisure Interests, Values, and Skills are the
categories and 5 assessments you take.
- You can view the results of each one, but then they are combined into one result.

6. Now why would we do this?
At first it seems pretty useless to a few because they believe they already know what
they want and what they like.
They don’t always know what they will actually be doing in there career field.
The Focus 2 assessment helps show you career fields that you may enjoy more or you
would fit in better with.

7. The answers you give are based off how you feel,
also how strongly you feel, about the activities
they describe.
So you may have to take the assessments more
than once to put how you actually feel about
doing the objectives provided. There is nothing
wrong about this either because people may
change how they feel.
