Abstract	This booklet, which is designed to help individuals match themselves with jobs, discusses the common skills, abilities, and habits all employees need to bring to a job, as well as occupation-specific characteristics and skills. The first half of the booklet is a discussion of considerations in choosing a career that covers the following topics: (1) importance of making a good career choice; (2) mathematics and English skills required for most jobs; (3) sources of additional information on career choice; (4) personal and job characteristics (mathematics, English, science, computer, artistic, creative, persuasive, and interpersonal skills; mechanical ability; leadership and managerial ability); (5) personal skills and abilities; (6) work characteristics (travel between worksites, overnight travel, hazardous duties or conditions, operation of machinery or equipment, outdoor work, irregular work schedule, job stress, physical demands, economic sensitivity, geographic concentration); (7) occupational characteristics; and (8) education and training. The second half of the booklet is a table that classifies approximately 250 jobs according to 22 characteristics in the following four categories: personal skills and abilities; work characteristics; occupational characteristics; and education and training requirements. The jobs are divided into the following nine categories: executive, administrative, and managerial; professional and technical; marketing and sales; administrative support and clerical; service; mechanics, installers, and repairers; construction trades; production; and miscellaneous.
