Career assessments assist in identifying interests, strengths, abilities, values and personality preferences.  Assessment results can then be linked to research-based career options to explore during the career counseling process.

A common myth about any career assessment tool is that the results "tell you" what major or career to pursue.  While this is not possible, assessments can provide valuable insight.
