Use this template Describe yours in chatOpen full screenMore to start from: all form, quiz and course templates. Nothing is published until you press Publish, and every answer lands in your account with charts and a CSV.
Students choosing subjects or a first job often pick from the names they have heard of, not from what they actually enjoy. A short quiz built around preferences gives them a starting point and gives a counsellor something concrete to talk through. The live sample above is a general personality quiz; the chat adapts it to your students, your school and the career groups you care about.
What you get
Results that point to career groups, with a chart
Each answer adds to one of four or five result types, and each type gets its own description and next steps. The results page charts how your group answered, and you can download the responses as a CSV to look at patterns across a year group.
Quizzes that teach
Every question can have a hint and an explanation, and missed questions come back until they are right.
See who knows what
The results show the average score, which questions people miss most, the most common wrong answer and every play.

Who uses it
A school careers teacher
Before option choices in Year 9 or 11, run a quiz that sorts students into broad groups, then use the results to plan which subject talks and work experience to offer each group.
A sixth form or college counsellor
Send the quiz link before one-to-one appointments so students arrive with their top two result types written down, and the meeting can start from their reactions rather than a blank page.
A student society or club organiser
Run a quiz at a careers evening to start conversations about paths you would not normally discuss, with a short description for each result and a sign-up link for the next session.
Questions
Does the quiz tell students what job to do?
No. It shows which kinds of work match the way someone says they like to spend time and solve problems. Results are best used as a starting point for research, talks with people in those fields and work experience, not as a verdict.
How many questions and results should a career quiz have?
Six to ten questions works well for students, and four or five result types keeps the differences clear. Each answer should lean toward one type, so the chat will check that no result type ends up with no questions behind it.
Can I collect student names and emails?
You can ask for an email so each student gets their result, but you are responsible for what you collect, especially from students under 18. Ask only for what you need, such as a first name and a school email, and check your school's data rules before you publish.
Can I change the questions after I share the link?
Yes, you can edit the quiz by chat and publish the changes at the same link. If students have already answered, look at the results before changing questions, since answers given to an older version may not match the new one.
Can the quiz use our school's own career groups?
Yes. Tell the chat which groups your school uses, such as apprenticeships, university courses or specific sectors, and the result types and descriptions will follow those names.
