A New Perspective To Prepare For Your Future

The Challenge mindset is an approach to career exploration focused on finding challenges to tackle instead of job titles to fit into.

This interactive experience is designed to help you find a career path based on exciting, real-world challenges that go beyond job titles. After completing the activity, you will receive a customized Challenge Profile with a career exploration action plan.
