My Career
School Leavers & Students
- Every year, thousands of students complete tertiary studies, only to discover in their final year that the career paths open to them through their studies don’t appeal to their personal aspirations, motivations or goals.
- Back in the day when a student debt was a few hundred bucks, most could take it as a hard life lesson learned and move onto something else.
- With student debts now averaging $50,000 and long-term costs of fulfilling dreams of owning a property getting further from reach for many, the need to choose a career path wisely, first time, is an ever-growing priority.
- A career preference assessment, coupled with a one-to-one feedback session with a qualified career management professional can assist anyone at the beginning of their career to identify the broad groups of careers most likely to bring a rewarding work-life, then pick the tertiary courses, training or apprenticeships that will lead to those careers.

One of our biggest challenges bringing people into our business was understanding what their risk perception was prior to them starting work.
So, we started looking for a cost-effective assessment that would help us understand the levels of risk perception that new staff had as part of our pre-employment process that was simple and easy to use.
People Central offered such an assessment. With a simple setup, we quickly incorporated it into our process. The assessment is online, which means candidates can complete it quickly and easily.
That theme runs through to the results as well—so as soon as they are completed, we get the results along with the reference guide and scoring, which means our team can better identify areas of development for our managers to focus on with new staff.
We have now started to roll this out across other business units in our division after positive feedback from our EHS Managers regarding its effectiveness.
We at One Foundation are grateful for the quality psychometric assessment services provided by People Central.
Their support and expertise have enhanced our decision-making process.
We can recommend People Central to any organisation seeking reliable and insightful assessment services.
