Answers to the
following questions should help you decide. Under each question, check the answer that
says what you feel or comes closest to it. Be honest with yourself.
PRE-TEST
Are you a self-starter?
○ Easy does it; I don’t put myself out until I have to.
How do you feel about other people?
● I let someone else get things moving. Then I go along if I feel like it.
Can you take responsibility?
● I like to take charge of things and see them through.
● I’ll take over if I have to, but I’d rather let someone else be responsible.
● There’s always some eager person around wanting to show how smart
he/she is. I say let him/her.
How good an organizer are you?
● I like to have a plan before I start. I’m usually the one to get things lined up
when others want to do something.
● I do all right unless things get too goofed up. Then I quit.
● I get all set and then something comes along and presents too many
problems. So I just take things as they come.
How good a worker are you?
● I can keep going as long as I need to. I don’t mind working hard for something
I want.
● I’ll work hard for a while, but when I’ve had enough, that’s it!
● I can if I have plenty of time. If I have to make up my mind fast, I think later I
should have decided the other way.
● I try to be on the level most of the time, but sometimes I just say what’s
easiest.
