About Holland codes (RIASEC)
Career counsellors around the world use psychologist John Holland's six interest types to help people find work they'll enjoy. The types are Realistic (doing), Investigative (thinking), Artistic (creating), Social (helping), Enterprising (persuading) and Conventional (organising). Your top three types make your Holland code, such as ISA or RIC.
Most careers mix two or three types, so look at all of your top three, not just the first. Interests can change as you grow and try new things, so take the test again in a year. Talk about the results with your parents and teachers.
