My Next Move
What it is
My Next Move is a free web-based career exploration tool for job seekers and students. It provides tasks, skills, salary information, and other details for 923 careers. Users can search by keyword, browse industries and career groupings, or get personalized suggestions with the O*NET Interest Profiler. Its Mini Interest Profiler asks 30 questions about six Holland interest types: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional. Career outlook labels draw on U.S. employment growth and job-opening projections and flag some emerging occupations. Salary figures are shown at the low, average, and high levels, corresponding to the 10th, 50th, and 90th percentiles published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The site links to Apprenticeship.gov and CareerOneStop, and offers a Veterans resource for finding civilian careers similar to military jobs. Mi Próximo Paso presents career information in Spanish. Interest Profiler results are not intended for employment or hiring decisions.
