Color Career Counselor

I found this on MSN the other day and decided to take the test, not thinking much of it. I was shocked to see how accurate the results were.


The Dewey Color System® is now the world's most accurate career testing instrument.
This report based on your personality traits indicates your two most enjoyable day-day-day occupation skills. It’s a summary of the full report, the Color Leadership Evaluation 5.0.

“Studies indicate workplace enjoyment is the key to success. So as you read, consider only “Was I mostly having fun at work?” Disregard your present and past employer’s environment.

Best Occupational Category

You're an ORGANIZER (Oh so true. :P)

Keywords

Self-Control, Practical, Self-Contained, Orderly, Systematic, Precise, and Accurate

These conservative appearing, plotting-types enjoy organizing, data systems, accounting, detail, and accuracy. They often enjoy mathematics and data management activities such as accounting and investment management. Persistence and patience allows them to do detailed paperwork, operate office machines, write business reports, and make charts and graphs. (I do things like this a lot.)

ORGANIZER CAREERS
Suggested careers are Administrator, Secretary (I do this at the SO), Printer, Paralegal, Building Inspector, Bank Cashier, Private Secretary, Statistician, Operations Manager, Financial Analyst, Bookkeeper, Medical Records Technician, Developer of Business or Computer Systems, Clerical Worker, Proofreader (Love doing this), Accountant, Administrative Assistant, Banker, Certified Public Accountant, Credit Manager, Store Salesperson, Actuary, Dental Assistant, Business Education Teacher, Food Service Manager, IRS Agent, Budget Analyst, and Underwriter.

ORGANIZER WORKPLACES
Your very careful, conscientious, conservative nature gives others the confidence to trust you with handling money and material possessions. Structured organizations that have well-ordered chains of command work best for you. (Yes to these.)

Suggested Organizer workplaces are large corporations, business offices (Currently work in one of these), financial lending institutions, banks, insurance companies, accounting firms, and quality control and inspection departments.



2nd Best Occupational Category

You're a DOER (Not bragging, but someone told me I was this the other day. I like to do things, not wait.)

Keywords:

Emotionally Stable, Reliable, High Energy, Practical, Thrifty, and Persistent (Mostly all true.)

These adventurous types prefer action-oriented, concrete problems rather than dealing with thought-provoking, ambiguous, abstract dilemmas. Fields of interest include mechanical, construction, and outdoor careers. They might also enjoy working with machines, tools, and equipment to repair or build something. (These fit too. I'm a good mix of this plus the first one.)
