Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Assessment (MBTI)
The MBTI庐 assessment is the most widely used personality assessment in the world.
Based on Carl Jung鈥檚 theory of psychological types, the MBTI measures an individual鈥檚
interests and preferences in an online questionnaire. Students will receive a personalized,
written report that we鈥檒l use to explore your vocational and academic interests and
career options that complement the student鈥檚 personality type.
Strong Interest Inventory Assessment
The most widely used career planning instrument in the world, the Strong Interest
Inventory庐 is an indepth assessment of an individual鈥檚 interests among a broad range
of occupations, work and leisure activities, and educational subjects. This instrument
is based on the idea that individuals are more satisfied and productive when they
work in jobs or at tasks that they find interesting and when they work with people
whose interests match their own. Students will receive a personalized, written report
identifying optimum career choices based their assessed interests.

Avoiding Job Scams & Fraudulent Employers
When you鈥檙e searching for jobs, always be on the lookout for red flags from scammers
like the ones listed below. During the initial hiring process, you should never be
asked to supply any private information, like your social security number or your
bank account information, to a potential employer, and you should never process any
financial transactions. Research companies on trusted websites like , the and .
Remember: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Unsure? Ask us.
Red flags include the following:
- A representative asks you to use your personal email account not your 麻豆传媒 account.
- A representative asks you to provide your credit card or bank account numbers or other
personal financial documentation
- The representative asks you to provide your social security number and/or driver's
license information in the initial application.
Red flags include the following:
- The representative tells you that the organization does not have an office set up
in your area and will need you to help get the office up and running. This scam often
includes a request for your banking information, supposedly to help the employer make
transactions.
- The position requires an initial investment, such as a payment by wire service or
courier.
- You receive an unexpectedly large check to deposit into your bank account.
Avoid organizations who:
- Offer opportunities to 鈥渕ake quick money鈥� or 鈥渙ne-day only specials鈥�
- Offer to send or wire money to your bank account.
They may ask you to cash the check and/or send money to other accounts. Once your
bank or financial institution processes the scammer's check or financial request,
you may be informed the monies are invalid or 鈥渘ot real.鈥� In the meantime, you are
held responsible for the funds the bank has sent at your direction to other accounts.
Red flags include the following:
- The position indicates a "first-year compensation" that far exceeds the average compensation
for that type of position at other companies.
- The salary range listed is very wide, e.g., "employees can earn from $40K - $80K the
first year."
- The salary is listed as weekly, e.g., 鈥渆arn $500/week.鈥� In the U.S., it is rare to
see salaries listed as weekly.
- The position initially appears as a traditional job but is structured as an independent
contractor opportunity.
- The posting neglects to mention the responsibilities of the job. Instead, the description
focuses on the amount of money to be made.
Red flags include the following:
- The email handle does not match the domain used by the organization, or it comes from
@live.com, @yahoo, @hotmail, or @gmail account. Validate that an email is legitimate
by visiting the organization's official website. You can also check the open positions
on the organization's career/jobs page.
- You receive unsolicited email that is not personally addressed to you. If the email
references a referral from the Career Center, Contact the Career Center to verify the employer.
- The organization鈥檚 website contains very little information or information only about
the job in which you are interested.
- The employer鈥檚 and/or representative鈥檚 contact information is hard to find or verify.
- The employer contacts you by phone from a hidden number.
- The employer responds to you immediately after you submit your resume (excluding auto-responses
confirming your application has been received).
- An offer of employment is given almost immediately following an initial online/phone
interview
- Google results for the organization鈥檚 name include spam reports. Check reports at
.
- The posting includes numerous spelling and grammatical errors.
