Six interest types on a hexagon
Every type points to real, different career families
Adjacent types on the hexagon tend to combine naturally. Opposite types can still both matter, but usually pull toward different kinds of work.
Investigative
Analysis, research, data, science, and problem solving.
Artistic
Original creation, design, and open-ended expression.
Social
Teaching, guiding, counselling, and helping people.
Enterprising
Leading, persuading, selling, and building ventures.
Conventional
Structure, accuracy, systems, and organised process.
Rate each activity honestly
How much would you enjoy each activity?
Answer based on activities themselves, not your current skill level or what you think pays well. You can be a beginner and still enjoy an activity.
There are no right answers. Rate each activity on how much you would enjoy doing it.

This independent test is educational, not diagnostic. It is not the official Self-Directed Search instrument, does not fix a permanent type, and cannot choose a career by itself.

Common questions
Before you use your Holland Code
What is RIASEC and the Holland Code?
RIASEC stands for six interest types identified by psychologist John Holland: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional. Your three strongest types, in order, form your three-letter Holland Code, such as IAS or ECS.
Is this an official Holland Code or Self-Directed Search test?
No. This is an independent, original 36-item interest assessment from Future Career School inspired by RIASEC theory. It is not the official Self-Directed Search (SDS) instrument and is not affiliated with or endorsed by its publisher.
How is my three-letter code calculated?
You rate 36 activities across the six RIASEC types (six activities per type). Each type gets a 0-100 score from your ratings, and your three highest-scoring types, ranked in order, become your Holland Code.
Can my Holland Code tell me exactly which job to take?
No. It highlights the kinds of activities and environments you tend to enjoy and points to real career families to investigate. Career decisions still need demonstrated skill, market evidence, constraints, and real experiments, not an interest code alone.
What does it mean if my top scores are close together?
A flat or undifferentiated profile means your interests are fairly even across several types. This is common and simply means you should sample a wider range of activities before narrowing down, rather than forcing a single clear-cut code.
Should I only look at careers that match my Holland Code?
No. Treat your code as a starting filter, not the final answer. A career family that matches your interests still needs to clear three broader, macro-level checks: is there real, growing demand for this kind of work, can you realistically build the skills it needs from where you are today, and does it fit your financial and personal constraints. A strong interest match with weak market demand or no realistic entry route is a weaker choice than a moderate match you can actually build a path into.
Can I download the result?
Yes. The PDF includes all six type scores, your three-letter Holland Code, consistency and differentiation indicators, matched career families, skill-building suggestions, and all 36 responses.
