I prefer to work with others, I enjoy helping others, and I am outgoing.

            B.         Look at your “Learning Environment” rating.  How do the educational requirements of the occupations you listed fit with your interest to pursue additional training?

picked.  Some will take more time than others but its ok. 

C.         Look at your “Leadership Style” rating.  How do these occupations fit your personal style?

I had to laugh here….  I am not comfortable taking charge of others and I picked three management ones. So for those not so great but the others I think match up pretty good.
