What is self-assessment?

Essentially, it is a simple way to enhance self-understanding. It is being able to describe your unique characteristics clearly and accurately regarding:

  •  What you do well (skills) 
  •  What is important to you (values)
  • What you like to do (interests)

Since there is no better source of information about you than yourself, the easiest method of increasing self-understanding is to review and analyze your past and present experiences. Increasing your knowledge of your skills, values, and interests will help determine the type of work that fits you best.
