The Holland Code

The Amboyna Massacre occurred in 1623 on the island of Ambon in present day Indonesia where twenty men were executed on the accusation of treason by the hands of the Dutch East India Company. Ten of these men were members of English East India Company who were trading at a post belonging to the Dutch East India Company. The Amboyna Massacre would result in an intensifying feud between the English and the Dutch, and would be a symbol for growing European power throughout the world.

Everyone wants to be a part of the streets but not everyone has the heart, dedication, or strength to live the lifestyle. There is a law of ethics when running around in the streets. There are rules that one always has to follow in order to survive. There is no love when dealing with those that follow the code, ones heart has to be made coal because anything can happen and anything goes. Out there in the streets you are a family that continuously looks out for each other and let nothing separate the bond that you have on the streets. In this paper I will discuss what the code of the street is and what is consist of, also residential segregation and how it hold those in the streets back from achieving success.

The Holland Code Assessment helped me to find my key interests. My top interest was in the conventional area. Before I took the assessment, I had a strong desire to have all the areas of my life structured. I find myself to be “by the book” at times, but I do exercise flexibility when it counts. When it comes to my work as a waitress for BJ’s Restaurants, I have to multitask, which can often be challenging. What makes my job easier is when I have the tables in my station served with a game plan. Whenever I am organized at work, it really

It's important to me that I study and work with something that's real, rather than subjective. When I first started to look at career paths, I found that my biggest concern was making sure that I will be able to make an impact on the world that I can feel proud of. Engineering is the field that most appeals to me in that I would be creating or refining real, tangible things, and that those things would have real, positive effects on people's lives. I know that engineering is a great opportunity to work with others and combine my strengths with other engineers, as well as people from various other

In order for me to complete this career assessment paper, I initially took an Interest Inventory survey. Upon completing this process, it revealed that my personality profile score was (I, C, A). These three letters represented my strengths and interests in determining which career field would best suit me.

Anne explains here how differently the Jews are treated and how the Nazis posed an identity on the Jewish people. The Jewish people were identified as a whole separate group that were treated as if they were less than human or a different species. Although Anne doesn’t believe this about any Jewish people (including herself), she is still forced to live through it. This imposed identity contributes to Anne’s identity later on; she feels fearful, alone, and even ends up questioning her own identity.

After doing the personality tests on Indiana Career Explorer, the tests gave me a couple of examples of fields I would be successful in, it told me what values may be important to me in a workplace environment. I feel these assessments were spot on and I have more confidence in my ability to be successful in my career choice.

This discipline i choose for my career field description was structural engineering with is a branch of civil engineering. Structural engineering focuses on the framework of structures and designing structures to withstand the stresses and pressures of their environment and remain safe, stable, and secure throughout their use. In other words, structural engineers make sure that buildings don't fall down and bridges don't collapse. Structural engineering is among the oldest types of engineering, dating back to the first instance of tree branches being lashed together with vines to make a shelter. Throughout history, people have been designing and building increasingly larger and more sophisticated structures, from small huts to the International Space Station.

Having many values in my life, the assessment found three that stood out to me. Favorably, I am accustomed to helping others. If I see someone struggling with tasks or comprehension, I always try to help them understand. I can remember when I was a toddler how creative I was. I would often fill my days with telling my family stories and making up songs that my imagination couldn’t hold on to. Being 21 now, creativity has still been a major key factor in success. Thinking of ways to improve computer programs at work is part of the creativity. Being stable is the most important to me. Being without a job, a car, and money, are all key factors that could possibly hold me back from not having a successful career.

After taking the CHOICES Interest Inventory, my holland codes were social and investigative. Investigative individuals are frequently depicted as "thinker's" who are observing and appreciate learning and assessing new things/circumstances. Investigative individuals like the challenge of thinking of ways to figure out problems and also they prefer to work on their own. Social individuals are often dubbed as "aides" who appreciate helping individuals from multiple points of view and are constantly worried about the prosperity of others. Social individuals flourish when working in groups, and have exceptional verbal and communication skills.

Dr. John Holland created a theory and inventory to help describe personality types that can be used to identify occupations that are best suited for a particular personality type, or “Holland Code.”

Military strategy forever had been battles of attrition, men throwing themselves at each other until a winner was determined, this form of battle was replaced in Europe during the 16th and 17th century. The change in military strategy took place mostly in Europe, and the countries at the forefront of this were the Swedish empire and the Netherlands. The Swedes and Dutch changed many military strategies and practices which were in place for thousands of years and changed the standard for militaries. They helped to show the first realistic application of David versus Goliath, using smart tactics paired with a smaller army to destroy militaries of greater size. The two smallest nations in Europe took control and led the world in military innovations in the 16th and 17th century through competition and loss. The Swedes and Dutch managed to create fluid militaries which were able to overpower larger armies through deception and agility. The Swedish and Dutch nations during the 16th and 17th century gained military strength through the reformation of tactics, reorganization of the military, improvisation of weapons, and as a result changed the image and action of the military forever. The idea of a military revolution was first explored by a man named Michael Roberts in the 1950s. Roberts said that if the Swedish Empire and the Netherlands had not developed as they did, military strategy and organization would have not evolved for much later.

I rated myself between competent and expert in the three areas of career planning. I understand my role in my current job and I have a full understanding of where I want to be in the future. My career path has me staying at my present employer. I love working for my state’s Quality Improvement Organization. I am surrounded by people who are striving to better health care for all residents in Wisconsin and I am thrilled to be part of this team!

A benefit of the Holland code is fast and easy to take. The result are available immediately, and they provide possible jobs that may fit your personality best. The Holland code also uses closed questions to increase the validity of the answer.

Career assessments are very beneficial when an individual is trying to determine what career path they may be wanting to take. Sometimes new information will become apparent and other times information that is already known to that individual will just be simply solidified. It is important to answer the questions as accurately to oneself as possible. My personal results only reassured me of what I already knew.
