What the assessment measures
280 items in five modules — what you love to do, how you work, fifteen STEM working traits, thirty real situations, and where you want your work to land — matched against forty careers in eight families. Then a sixth module drafts your mission, vision and values in your own words. Progress saves as you go; it is free and complete today.
STEM career list for students. A list is only useful with a way to choose from it. Every career here carries its trait signature, growth, education path and ordinary day — and the assessment ranks them for you. A STEM career is forty different jobs pretending to be one word. Software, data, engineering, health, research, mathematics, security and earth science each run on a different mix of the fifteen working traits the assessment measures. Students choose classes, majors and programs years before they meet the daily work of a career; this shows the ordinary day first.

Questions people ask
How is a "stem career list for students" different from a personality type test?
A type test gives you a label. STEM Compass gives you a profile on fifteen working traits and eight kinds of impact, then a directional match against each career — a number you can explain, not a letter code.
Does it cost anything?
No. The full assessment is open at tienesesto.org/stem-assessment, and every result links to a STEM Farm track that starts from zero.
