Whether you’re passionate about cooking, dancing, genealogy, geology, or any other hobby, our card deck has something for everyone.
How Hobbies and Interests Can Benefit Your Career
Assessing and understanding your hobbies and interests can have a significant impact on your career exploration, planning, and development. By delving into your personal preferences, you can gain valuable insights into your personality, likes, dislikes, transferable skills, strengths, and areas for growth. This information can then be applied in various aspects of your professional life, such as crafting Resumes, Cover Letters, and Selection Criteria, as well as academic submissions for vocational and tertiary admissions.
Furthermore, your hobbies and interests can help shape your career, learning, and development plans. By aligning your criteria with those of potential employers, you can make informed decisions that minimise the chances of poor occupational choices and maximise your overall job satisfaction. For employers and recruitment consultants, analysing the hobbies and interests of candidates provides valuable information about their personality characteristics, risk-taking tendencies, introversion or extroversion, and preference for autonomy or teamwork.
Alternate Uses for Hobbies and Interest Card Sorts
Whilst our Hobbies and Interest Card Sort cards are predominantly utilised to help individuals in the career exploration, planning and development phase, the card deck can also be used to assist you to develop Self-Care Plans, helping you explore new leisure activities that may add a unique depth and breadth of pleasure to your life through sporting, personal or community engagement activities.
