Frequently asked questions
What is a career aptitude test?
It looks at your interests, values and how you persist, to gauge which kind of work suits you. It is not an exam with right answers — it is a tool for understanding yourself.
How many questions, and how long does it take?
22 questions, about 5 minutes: 12 on career interests, 6 on work values and 4 on grit.
Is it free? Do I need an account?
Taking the test and seeing your result are free and need no account. Saving the result or getting the in-depth report does require signing up.
What does the result tell me?
Which of the six career-interest types stand out for you, what you value at work, and how you keep going. We then show roles and growth opportunities that match.
How is this different from the Work-Net vocational preference test?
The Work-Net test is a standardized instrument from the Ministry of Employment and Labor. STANDER Discovery is a short tool with our own items, informed by the same theories, focused on connecting the result to coaching, learning and job listings.
Can I decide my career based on this?
It is a reference tool. It is not a clinical diagnosis or medical advice; for important decisions we recommend speaking with a professional as well.
