The Üsküdar University Career Test, which has guided millions of young people in career choice to date, contributes to candidates making more informed choices with its approach centered on interests, personality traits, and individual abilities, not only based on scores and rankings. Especially students who remain undecided in the final days of preferences, can see which professions are more suitable for them with the analyses they obtain within minutes.
The Üsküdar University Career Test, which has guided millions of candidates since 2015 and is based on a scientific foundation, has illuminated the future of 1,738,285 people to date and enabled 9,182 undecided candidates to discover their potential during this preference period alone.
Stands out with its scientific foundation
The Üsküdar University Career Test is based on the Holland Vocational Preference Inventory (RIASEC) model, which has been used for many years worldwide. In the 90-question test, completed in approximately 10 minutes, candidates select "I like" or "I dislike" for various activities. At the end of the test, a detailed profile is created based on the analysis of the individual's interests and dominant personality traits, indicating in which professional groups they might be more successful and happy.
In this respect, the test answers not only the question "Which department should I choose?" but also "What kind of work life suits me?"
Six different personality types, hundreds of different career options
The 90-question test, based on the Holland Vocational Preference Inventory, analyzes your personality profile by asking simple but effective questions and guides the candidate to one of 6 main types:
Realistic: Practical people who enjoy working with their hands. (Engineering, Agriculture, etc.)
Investigative: Those who enjoy observing, researching, and problem-solving. (Scientist, Doctor, etc.)
Artistic: Creative, artistic, and original individuals. (Architect, Designer, Musician, etc.)
Social: Those who enjoy helping people and teaching. (Teacher, Psychologist, Social Worker, etc.)
Enterprising: Those who enjoy persuading, managing, and leading. (Manager, Lawyer, Marketer, etc.)
Conventional: Orderly, rule-abiding, and detail-oriented workers. (Accountant, Banker, etc.)
Not just suggesting professions, but helping individuals get to know themselves
According to experts, the most important difference of the test is that instead of directly telling candidates "choose this department," it first allows individuals to get to know themselves. Many students realize, as a result of the test, that fields they had never considered before largely align with their own personality traits. Candidates who have already made up their minds can see how compatible the department they plan to choose is with their personality structure.
In this respect, the Career Test stands out as an important self-assessment tool performed before creating a preference list.
Digital test supported by expert counseling
Üsküdar University does not leave the test result by itself. Candidates who wish to evaluate their results can hold one-on-one or online meetings with the university's expert preference counselors to assess their test results along with their success rankings, scores, and career goals.
Thus, candidates can create a healthier preference list by analyzing not only the test result but also their academic achievements, interests, future goals, and the expectations of the business world.
The right choice, the first step to the right career
Experts evaluate university preference not merely as a placement process, but as the beginning of a lifelong career journey.
Experts, drawing attention to the fact that career choice determines happiness as much as success, emphasize that utilizing scientific career analyses and expert counseling, instead of making hasty decisions in the final days of the preference period, will provide a significant advantage for the future of young people.
As the final hours of the YKS preference period approach, the Üsküdar University Career Test continues to help thousands of candidates discover their potential, guiding them not only in university choices but also in life choices.
