Find out the types of activities that you may be performing for the selected profession. Will you spend most of your time researching products or analyzing data? Will a typical day involve operating heavy machinery or negotiating business deals?

Each work activity is given two scores of 0-100. The first score indicates how important a given activity is for success in the profession. The second score indicates the proficiency level needed. The proficiency score is accompanied by a scale that helps you interpret the score.
