2. A person cannot be described in one word, phrase,
paragraph or even an entire novel. People develop
differently and continue to change in many ways through
the course of their lives.
With each coming year I have acquired many skills
and personality traits. I was not born with the personality I
posses today.
Today I am a very lively, happy, strong, diligent,
artistic, funny, creative and imaginative person. I have
always looked at things differently than other people. Many
people follow trends or leaders but I have always been
independent and thought on my own.
Some of my skills consist of writing, drawing, painting,
and reading, organizing, and solving problems. I am a
unique person and I am confident in my skills.

will serve as the foundation for my
career. These traits and skills will help
me in my future careers.

hear.
Thinking creatively means that I use my
imagination quite a lot, I try new
methods when I do something, and I
have different points of view.

6. My Holland Code is:
AIS
This means that I am mainly
artistic, I like to investigate
and I am a social type.

 Most occupations require a four-year bachelor’s degree but some do not.
 In New York, translators are paid $37,700 per year at first but more
experienced translators are paid $69,580 per year.
This occupation matches my code because with the code AIS it means that I
am social and I like to investigate. Becoming a translator means I would
have to investigate to learn new languages and be social to communicate
those languages well with others.

8. A creative writer creates original written works for publication or
performance.

forms.

novels and must develop factors such as themes, plots, and
characterizations.

communication and media production, and knowledge of different

pay increases with experience to $94,370 per year.
This job matches mainly the social part of my Holland code because each
day I would need to interact with students and other teachers. It matches
the I in my code because in order to learn languages fully I would need to
learn more about culture. Language is very artistic as well.

10. People with blue Interests like job responsibilities and occupations that involve creative,
humanistic, thoughtful, and quiet types of activities. Blue Interests include abstracting,
theorizing, designing, writing, reflecting, and originating, which often lead to work in
editing, teaching, composing, inventing, mediating, clergy, and writing.
People with yellow styles perform their job responsibilities in a manner that is orderly and
planned to meet a known schedule. They prefer to work where things get done with a
minimum of interpretation and unexpected change. People with a yellow style tend to be
orderly, cautious, structured, loyal, systematic, solitary, methodical, and organized, and
usually thrive in a research-oriented, predictable, established, controlled, measurable,
orderly environment. You will want to choose a work environment or career path in which
your style is welcomed and produces results.

writers are assigned different topics by editors. Writers work on
drafts or manuscripts and send them to their editors to check for
errors or to see if revisions are needed.
 Currently there are more writers than there are assignments. Writers
usually always depend on other sources of income to support
themselves. There are likely going to be more jobs in commercial
writing because commercial venues are always expanding.
Electronic publishing has increased and even more jobs will appear
for writers in the future.
