Career Compass: A Rarity among Career Reports

Want to Find a Job that Fits?

Learn How Ten Personal Values Point the Way

Recognition, power, tradition, security, fun, pleasing surroundings, money--these and other values make the difference between a job you can do and a job you want to do.

The Career Compass is a rarity among career reports. It shines a light on the elusive and hard-to-articulate nature of work motivations, values, and preferences—and then points us towards work and work environments that will “fit.” It is validated for adults.

The Career Compass is based on the Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI), a scientifically validated values assessment developed and published by Hogan Assessments.  All Hogan tests meet the highest academic standards for reliability and validity.

The MVPI and the resulting Career Compass report are supported by a sample of more than 10,000 employed adults in a wide range of occupations, from blue collar workers to executives. The MVPI is:

• A comprehensive survey of the 10 key values found in every culture throughout history.

• The only commercially available measure of values that has been developed, validated, and normed for business contexts.

• Useful for predicting individual occupational performance as well as evaluating culture fit.

• Unbiased—scores from gender, race, and ethnic groups are the same.

• Stable over time—scores change little as age and experience increase.

Hogan Assessments is an international authority on personality assessment for the workplace. Hogan has produced effective results through its staff of industrial psychologists for more than 30 years. All Hogan tests are researched using the highest scientific standards for test validation.
