Testimonials

SkillScan is so easy to use while also being an effective tool in providing clarity for our clients, especially those who struggle to articulate their strengths. It is helpful for our diverse range of clients, from those just embarking on their professional lives to mid-career professionals who want to make a change to those debating how to spend their last years in the workforce. Clients can take a deep dive into career exploration or just skim the surface of the report and still get valuable insight into themselves. We even find the reports helpful for writing resumes!

SkillScan Drive is a great resource for career counselors to use with clients as a foundation for generating career options, writing a resume, and preparing for interviews. It can be used with a range of clients from college students to professionals in career transition

The more I use it, the more I love SkillScan as a valuable part of my career assessment offering for clients of all ages. I can use their DRIVE report in conjunction with various assessment offerings such as their Holland code, personality type, and work values to show a more cohesive and unified profile of who they are and what they have to offer. As a visual learner, I love the way information is easily absorbed through the DRIVE's colorful report and Lesah's clever diagrams in the training.

Love using the new Drive assessment with my clients. The report content flows well. The formatting of the Personal Skill Chart is very detailed and easy to interpret. I particularly find the Strategic Skill Profile that showcases the client's dominant skills a useful tool to use in personal branding.

I was able to take a client through his results just days after finishing the Get Acquainted with Drive webinar.  With the notes I took, it was extremely easy to cover things in a good time span and in a way that the client understood and also agreed with his results.  I always use values and Holland Code so appreciate the worksheet for doing the comparison.  Drive is really great!

I found Career Driver Online to be a very comprehensive tool with lots of information:

• The use of weighting and prioritization helps users to discriminate among all the skills they are interested in. This can be extremely helpful for those individuals whose interests are all over the place.
• The Side Trips and Resources section is great.
   

I frequently use DRIVE with both my entry level clients and career changers. It's always a confidence booster for clients not only see their transferable skills, but also the potential application of skills. The new supplemental exercises are also very helpful in terms of providing a comprehensive understanding of career preferences.

The SkillScan assessment helped me categorize my skills and the career fields I can further investigate.  It was nice to see a list of my strength so I could get a big picture of what I am interested in or good at.  Also, I thought it was nice that the SkillScan assessment helped me explore things I want to  improve.  This assessment was a good chance to explore my strength/talent or weaknesses as I develop my career goal.

I really liked using Skillscan’s Career Driver Online. I liked how the system grouped skills and made career and class suggestions based on those skills. I took my students to the computer lab to take the assessment and it was helpful to work in a group because one student’s question helped other students.  My students found it easy to use. During my student’s final presentation on their career action plan, they all talked about the Career Driver’s recommendations for their skills and how it would fit into to the job they wanted.

I have been using SkillScan for the past 8 years, both the physical version and the online version. It is my go-to resource for clients who could benefit from understanding how their skills fit into their career design. I am continually amazed by how many ‘a-ha’ moments arise in the conversations that follow!
