Career interest types are broad types of work you enjoy. This table contains the career interest type (RIASEC) high-point codes and numeric profile data for each O*NET-SOC occupation.

Career Interest Type ratings are presented as two scales: OI reports the RIASEC level of each interest and IH presents “high-point codes”, the numbers of the RIASEC scales for the first, second and/or third highest ratings.

The high-point values represent the following elements:

  • 0.00 = No high point available
  • 1.00 = Realistic
  • 2.00 = Investigative
  • 3.00 = Artistic
  • 4.00 = Social
  • 5.00 = Enterprising
  • 6.00 = Conventional

Ratings are available for 923 occupations. A total of 9 elements are rated in this domain. 2 scales are used for these ratings.
