FAQ

Questions about RIASEC.

Is the Holland Code the same as a personality test?+

No. RIASEC measures career interests (what kinds of work feel motivating) rather than personality traits. It is best used together with EDGE for a fuller picture.

Can I use it for internal mobility?+

Yes. RIASEC is well suited to mobility conversations because it highlights interest fit independent of current role title.
