O*NET® Interest ProfilerTM Services
The O*NET Interest Profiler is a vocational interest assessment instrument. Users receive an accurate, reliable profile of their vocational interests that:
- helps them identify their work-related interests,
- focuses career search activities, and
- enables them to link their vocational interests to O*NET-SOC occupations.
You can provide the Interest Profiler to your own site's audience through a direct web link, by including our IFrame Widget, or by using our web service API. The feature is available in English or Spanish.
Direct Web Link
The Interest Profiler is available free of charge on the web at My Next Move. To link to it directly, use the following URL:

IFrame Widget
Adding the Interest Profiler as part of your own site is easy with our IFrame Widget. By adding a small snippet of HTML to your site, the Interest Profiler can appear alongside your site's own branding and navigation. To see the Interest Profiler in action, try it out at My Next Move.
