Focus 2 Career Assessment

You can think of a career assessment as a way to jumpstart your brainstorming. It won’t match you to a specific job or tell you who you should be; instead, it can give you a fresh set of ideas to explore. It’s not about finding a perfect fit – it’s about learning more about yourself so you can make informed choices.

The Career Exploration Center offers the Focus 2 assessment free to all UW–Madison undergraduates. With this online tool, you can:

• Self-assess: Explore your work interests, personality, values, and skills.
• Build career readiness: Evaluate your career readiness and identify ways to develop the competencies employers value.
• Explore your options: Check out majors and occupations based on your interests and strengths.

To access Focus 2:

• First-time users: Create a new account. Use access code: uwm
• Returning users: Log on using the account you have already created.

After you use Focus 2, we encourage you to meet with a CEC career advisor to review your results and discuss next steps. You can also review additional resources on our Explore Majors and Explore Careers pages.
