No cost / information transparency! They do not mention anything about costs and after spending 60 minutes answering questions, they want € 19 for the result. Plus: they’re not showing any Im... See more

So stupid - it was only $5 but what a waste. Filled this out to help me get some different ideas of careers and it listed 7 different careers of teaching: elementary, kindergarten, secondary, etc. why... See more

I thought it was fairly quick and easy…

I thought it was fairly quick and easy to take the test the results were definitely interesting some of them were not something I'd be interested at all and others of them are things that I am already involved in so that was good it reinforced my career path a little

Passed the paywall and wish I hadn't

Yep paywall as people mentioned - kind of lame, but the fake reviews they show make it seem like it'll be worthwhile so I paid. The career advice is so useless, literally one 'career option' was 'social interactions', yeah cool, lemme look on LinkedIn for that job. Don't waste your money, the advice they give is totally unhelpful.

Not recommended. Regret paying more than I regret wasting my time taking this test.

Although it was nice to see some statistics on jobs that I was familiar with or am interested in I was quite skeptical. Other than that no new insights and not as detailed as I expected especially for $15 AUD. If you're open minded though, you might consider the fair amount of jobs that are provided based on your results helpful especially if you have no idea what career you would want and aren't really considering any idea.

Basically what the test results provide you with is some brief info on your personality, not as insightful or interesting unless you don't know yourself at all. But this isn't mainly a personality test. then the test gives a list of careers in rank order on what fits you best, along with some statistics presented with graphs.

I did read some reviews before thinking of paying and I guess I do sort of regret it.If you're reading this and are just curious to see your results, don't pay. I was curious and that was the main reason I paid. I was also quite stubborn and didn't want to think I wasted my time answering all those questions. Quite a dishonest marketing strategy to not list that there was a price for the results at the beginning. Though it was on their website, it was stated in small font and could easily be missed even if one scrolled down.

This test is only suitable for people who have NO IDEA what they want to do in their future or probably don't know themselves as much. But I think there are many career tests/personality tests out there that could give those people insights for free and taking various free ones is possibly better than paying for this one.

Also, I entered in the wrong email address and now I can't change it.

Waste of time

Waste of time. I wouldn't pay $20 for some silly suggestions from a random website. I outright refuse to do business with a website that wastes 10 minutes of my day for nothing

SCAM, DON'T EVEN TRY TO DO IT

There is nowhere you can see that you need to pay for it, you spend 15-20 minutes to answer the questions then you need to pay 20 dollars(the cheapest offer) to see yours ideal career. Not worth to pay for it, do what you love, guys. I tried it only because i saw it into a series and i was curious. They think they are slick doing it, *don't tell them its not free, they will pay to see the answer*.
Sike!!! Bet many people didn't pay and skipped, that's why they have so bad reviews.

Neat-o!

Questions were interesting and broad-based, which I feel makes the results a bit more accurate and true to the personality of the person answering them.

Not Worth Paying For

The career test is interesting but didn't tell me anything I didn't already know from previous tests that didn't cost money. Additionally, it provided a lot of low income jobs when I asked for higher.

For Me, This Test was Spot On.

Very comprehensive test. It's right in line with my strengths, so it was a good bit of advice. I already knew that I would likely take this kind of career path, but it's good to be affirmed by an outside source, sometimes. I'm glad I took the test. Nice outcome for me.
