Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

 Method 1
o The first method focuses on identifying skills developed from previous experiences in work, hobbies, social activities, community volunteer work, and other leisure experiences. The rationale for this objective is that people, in general, fail to recognize developed skills and also do not know how to relate them to occupational requirements. Three steps are necessary to identify skills from the work and leisure analysis form: (1) list specific work tasks, (2) identify functional, adaptive, and technical skills for each work task, and (3) relate each functional, adaptive, and technical skill to one or more of Holland's six modal personal styles.
 Method 2
o The second technique option, self-estimates of developed skills, can be accomplished by having the individual rate each functional, adaptive, and technical skill as good, average, or poor as illustrated in the previous example. These rankings provide self-estimates of skills within Holland's (1992) modal personal styles and corresponding work environments model.
 Method 3
o A more traditional method of evaluating skills is through standardized testing, which is our third technique option. A variety of aptitude tests on the market today provide methods of evaluating skills based on normative data.
