Career Intelligence; a comprehensive career assessment for working adults
CareerIntelligence is an online assessment for career development coaching with clients or employees. It offers practitioners and HR coaches a self-and-career evaluation designed to help the individuals you work with connect with what motivates them and to evaluate how they see their work skills and interests. CI is an ideal resource for identifying career choice, ‘job fit’, redeployment potential, professional development, and career planning.
The CI assessment offers you as a licensed coach:
- autonomous access to your own private online assessment portal with two assessments to choose from
- ability to upload your organisation or practice logo on every report
- a PDF report that accurately “mirrors” how your client or employee sees themself – so that you as their coach, can quickly spot their development needs and career potential
- a cost and time-effective process for both you and the individual you’re working with
- an effective tool that enhances the coaching conversation and facilitates meaningful career development objectives.
The Career Intelligence process offers an inside-out approach to career development, bringing connection to these three facets:
- Purpose: to give your employee or client career direction and a reason-for-being
- Focus: to help your employee or client align and engage with what interests them at work
- Learning: to bring intention to your employee or client’s career development

Feedback from a client (this is typical): “I have read through the report a few times and I already feel clearer, calmer, and more invigorated – particularly as this evaluation and process really has brought to the forefront some areas that I hadn’t really been paying much attention to (yet make sense to me). So this has strengthened these for me and placed more value on these also which is great. I am about to write my own notes as you have suggested which I think will absolutely be a useful exercise and get my thoughts going!”
Overview
The Career Intelligence assessment is an online self-assessment designed to support career specialists and internal HR coaches to provide effective employee or client career conversations.

- make well-informed job or career transitions when facing redundancy or redeployment – or when needing to create a role or job change
- have career or professional development coaching and planning
- explore aspects of themselves that are holding them back in their careers
- gain clarity about the ‘right fit’ role when planning the next step in their organisation or career.
