Career Compass™ Career Assessment | Discover Your Ideal Career

The Career Compass™ Career Assessment was developed by Inner Scope specifically for New Zealanders. It helps you make meaningful career decisions by connecting your strengths, interests, values and motivational drivers with real career, study and employment opportunities, giving you greater confidence in your future direction. 

The Career Compass™ Career Assessment combines a series of evidence-based psychometric assessments and guided activities designed to help you explore your future work and personal growth in a way that’s tailored for New Zealand. It’s built around three key areas: Interests, Values, and Motivation.

Interests help you discover the types of careers and work tasks that naturally engage you. Using tools like the RIASEC code and New Zealand career examples, you can identify fields where your strengths and preferences align, helping you identify careers where you're most likely to feel engaged, motivated and successful. 

Your values influence the type of work and workplace where you'll thrive in a job and work environment. From creativity and problem-solving to helping others, work-life balance, financial rewards, and wellbeing, this activity clarifies the principles and priorities that will make your work meaningful and satisfying.

Motivation explores the skills and activities that naturally energise you, as well as those that may drain your energy over time. Understanding this helps you choose work that is more sustainable, rewarding and aligned with your natural strengths.
