How do I use the Career Guide?

We’ve recommended 2 sectors based on your Unrealised Strengths – the things you are good at and enjoy but aren’t getting the opportunity to use often. These sectors will be more of a surprise than the ones based on your Realised Strengths. This is due to the likelihood of having many fewer Unrealised Strengths to review against and that you aren’t using these strengths. It’s still a great reflection on what your potential or hidden career could look like in the future. Please bear in mind it is likely you will need to develop these strengths further in order to achieve success in these sectors.

My current role does not appear in my Career Guide

• We’ve recommended only the top 6 sectors based on your Realised Strengths, so use it as a guide, as your role may still feature behind the scenes but isn’t quite so prominent with the matches to your Strengths. It doesn’t mean you aren’t good at your job. You may be using more Learned Behaviours (things we do well but have less energy) to deliver your tasks. You may want to use it to help you think about bringing in some of the tasks within the sectors to your existing role, i.e. support the sales or marketing team to bring in ideas.

What if I don't resonate with the recommended sectors in my Profile?

• It is likely some will resonate as these have been shared with you based on your realised strengths – the things you perform well and enjoy doing. It is also likely you’ll have a few surprises but we think that is a good thing so you can consider new opportunities and areas for future growth.
