HigherEd for All: Career Assessments for Graduates
After completing college, graduates are faced with the decision to continue their education or find a job. In today’s world, having a postgraduate degree is not always a guarantee of finding the best job. Employers seek people with valuable skills such as effective communication and critical thinking.
HigherEd for All provides career assessments to help graduates identify their strengths and weaknesses in various competencies for jobs and careers. Through these assessments, graduates can make informed decisions about their career paths.
Skill Assessment Tests
One of the assessments offered by HigherEd for All is the skill assessment test. This exam aims to ensure that applicants have the necessary skill sets to meet the needs of a business. It also helps identify a candidate’s knowledge and skills, which can guide them toward the perfect postgraduate course.
Skill assessment tests can help candidates build a strong resume by highlighting the skills they may be lacking. Improving these skills can increase their chances of getting hired and determine whether they are a good cultural fit for the company.
Psychometric Tests
HigherEd for All also offers psychometric tests measuring a person’s mental and emotional functioning. These tests highlight a person’s emotional quotient (EQ), which is essential for understanding how a person fits into their environment and reacts in unpredictable situations.
Analyzing an individual’s EQ can help steer them towards a career path that suits their temperament, increasing job satisfaction and stability. Making the wrong career choice can cause significant distress and harm personal health.
Highlighting Competencies
In addition to the above assessments, HigherEd for All helps identify an individual’s various competencies, such as time management and teamwork skills. Time management is essential for graduates who are working and studying together or when studying while working part-time.
Working in a team setting is vital for most careers. Good communication and teamwork skills are necessary to build good relationships with colleagues and improve productivity. HigherEd for All helps graduates improve these skills to become valuable assets for potential employers.
