What Career Field is Right for You?

For the most accurate career assessment you'll need to visit your college career advisor, but just for fun answer the questions below, and we'll tell you what you're most inclined toward.

When you get out of bed in the morning, the first thing you do is:

Check for viruses on your computer. Check your stock prices, remembering to buy low and sell high. Grab your Pantone® book to match the color of that thing on your chin. Look in the mirror, open wide and say "Ahhh."

If a space ship from another planet landed in your driveway you would:

Give it the official Vulcan "V" greeting just on a hunch. Consider the advantages of charging a parking fee. Think to yourself "why the drab silver-gray exterior?" Make sure no one was hurt in the landing.

If you were on a first date, a perfect destination might be:

The Apple® store. A Donald Trump book signing. An Andy Warhol retrospective. Volunteering at a local soup kitchen.

If you were the last person on earth you would:

Finally be the best in the world at "World of Warcraft" Hold a 100% off sale on everything Re-name the Louvre Museum of Art in Paris after yourself. Get a book on "Do-It-yourself" medical procedures.

If you could be a famous person, who would it be?

Bill Gates Warren Buffet Pablo Picasso Dr. Oz

As a child, you:

Took things apart to see how they worked. Had a lemonade stand. Got in trouble for drawing on the walls. Fixed items that were broken.

You are someone who believes that the glass...

Is half empty for now, but you can fix that. Is half full because it's better for the bottom line. Would look better in blue. Is half full and would offer it to someone in need.

If you were to "doodle something," you would likely:

Map out a network Draw dollar signs Sketch the person sitting next to you Draw a smiley face with a bandaged head

When driving, you:

Wear and actually use your Bluetooth. Always drive in the fast lane. Criticize the layout of the billboards. Carry a first aid kit.

At home, you are most likely to:

Check your software for the latest updates. Watch the evening news. Rearrange the furniture in your living room. Take care of the people in your family.
