My Values Profile

Working Conditions

Working Conditions relates to specific circumstances in your work environment.

If Working Conditions is your highest work value, consider pay, job security, and good working conditions when looking at jobs. Look for work that suits your work style. Some people like to be busy all the time, or work alone, or have many different things to do. Explore jobs where you can take best advantage of your particular work style.

Support

Support refers to a strong connection between an employer and employee.

If Support is your highest work value, look for jobs where the company stands behind its workers and where the workers are comfortable with management’s style of supervision. Explore work in companies with a reputation for competent, considerate, and fair management.

Independence

Independence reflects a desire to do work on your own initiative.

If Independence is your highest work value, look for jobs where they let you do things on your own initiative. Explore work where you can make decisions on your own.

Recognition indicates a motivation to advance and lead in your career.
If Recognition is your highest work value, explore jobs with good possibilities for advancement. Look for work with prestige or with the potential for leadership.

Relationships

Relationships relates both to a public service orientation and a sense of teamwork.

If Relationships is your highest work value, look for jobs where your co-workers are friendly. Look for work that lets you be of service to others. Explore jobs that do not make you do anything that goes against your sense of right and wrong.
