Assignment Details
Part 1: Evaluating your Fit
Dream Job Selection
- Choose your dream job from the O*NET website ()
- If your dream job is not listed (e.g., entrepreneur), select your next closest dream job
- Jobs not listed on O*NET will not be accepted
After selecting your job:
- Use O*NET to research the skills, tasks, knowledge, and requirements associated with success in this role
- You may only analyze O*NET content that you later include in your appendix
Self-Assessment Data
You must reflect on your own results from:
- Big Five Personality Test
- Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
- Work Values Exercise
All results must be included in the Appendix.
Requirements
1.** Fit Analysis**
You must identify:
- ONE personality dimension ONLY from Big Five OR Myers-Briggs test results
AND
- ONE value ONLY from your values exercise
Use these to explain how and why you fit with specific skills or requirements listed on O*NET for your dream job.
Important:
- You must be specific (name the exact O*NET skill, task, or requirement)
- Explanations must be supported using pre-class readings
Part 2: The Impact of AI on Your Dream Job
Identify ONE significant change or challenge affecting your dream job that is being driven by artificial intelligence (AI).
You must:
- Select at least ONE recent news article or industry report that discusses how AI is:
- Changing job tasks, skills, or responsibilities, OR
- Creating new challenges, ethical concerns, expectations in your dream job
- Clearly explain:
- What is changing in the role due to AI
- Why this change matters for how the job is performed
- Explicitly link the AI-driven change to:
- Specific tasks, skills, or requirements listed for your dream job on O*NET
Your analysis should go beyond summarizing the article and focus on application and interpretation.
Part 3: Responding to AI-Driven Change
You must now explain how your personality traits and/or values allow you to positively align with or adapt to the AI-driven change identified in Part 2.
Note: this is the ONLY place you can use External sources (news articles, professional articles) to support your discussion.
You must:
- Select ONE personality trait (Big Five or Myers-Briggs) OR ONE value
- Explain:
- How this trait or value helps you respond effectively to AI-related changes in your dream job,
- Clearly connect your explanation to:
- The AI-driven change you identified
- Relevant O*NET job requirements
Your response should demonstrate self-awareness, behavioral insight, and forward-looking thinking.
Note:
- The focus is not on whether AI is good or bad
- The focus is on:
- How AI is changing your dream job
- How you, as an individual, can remain effective and valuable
Generic discussions of AI without job specific links will be marked down.
Part 4: Visual Summary
Your presentation must include a cartoon (visual) analogy that represents:
- How you function in your dream job
- How your personality and values shape your fit
- Where your strengths lie
You must verbally explain the analogy in your presentation.
Generic images without explanation will be marked down.
Use of Pre-Class Readings
You must meaningfully integrate at least three pre-class readings
Pre-class readings should be used to:
Simply naming authors/readings without explanation will lower your grade.
Outside sources can only be used for identifying how AI is changing your dream job/ industry
Appendix Requirements subbmitted with PDF of your slides
Your appendix must include all of the following:
- Results for both Big Five personality tests
- Results for your Myers-Briggs test
- Results for your work values exercise
- Screenshots from O*NET showing all skills, tasks, or requirements you discussed
- #LO Inventory
- APA-formatted reference list
Missing or incomplete appendices will result in a grade penalty.
Common Errors That Lower Grades
- Not citing pre-class readings
- Being descriptive instead of analytical
- Not clearly linking traits/values to specific O*NET requirements
- Using outside sources for anything except how AI is changing your job/job industry
- Submitting an incomplete appendix
- Using AI in unethical ways (you must be able to explain your work verbally)
Note: – you can use AI to create your cartoon
Submission:
- PDF of presentation PPT slides including cartoon analogy
