implement divergent thinking to help reach resolutions. Creative thinking could aid in
satisfying multiple parities during a business negotiation, or help to settle dispute
amongst colleagues. Artistic interests and investigative interests seem to come form
two vary different facets, as the artistic ability seems to look beyond the information at
hand; whereas an investigative ability seeks to decipher information provided. These
two strong interests can be very beneficial when seeking out a variety of managerial or
administrative jobs. However, another shocking aspect that derived from this interests
assessment has been that my strongest occupational cluster resulted in being
Agricultural, Food, and Natural Resources (score of 13). The administrative and
managerial occupations scored at level 10, below other higher scoring occupations such
as Architecture, Arts, Hospitality and Sciences. The most pleasing aspect of this
assessment thus far has been that I am more artistic than I every believed to be. Prior
to this assessment I would have never considered that I would be interested in any sort
of career related to agriculture.
The third highest scoring related interests, scoring at one point less than the two
interests just discussed at 27, are conventional interests. Conventional interests are
those that focus on horizontal structure, procedures, standardization and routines.
Conventional individuals enjoy established information and data, and would rather not
implement ideas. This is the area of the interests assessments that I thought I would
have scored the highest. This is only slightly less than my highest scored interests, but
seems to be completely at the other end of the spectrum of artistic interests. Having a
clearly defined level of authority is something that is comforting for me, so I understand
how I would find interest in activities related to this structure. However, again based on
my occupational cluster results those careers, such as Law, Public Safety, and
Distribution logistics, ranked in the middle of the clusters with a score of around 10.
