The Holland Code Model is a theory of careers by psychologist,
John L. Holland, who believed that interest could be associated
with six types of personalities and work environments:
Realistic (doer) - practical, physical, hands-on, tool-oriented
Investigative (thinker)- analytical, intellectual, scientific, explorative
Artistic (creator) - creative, original, independent, chaotic
Social (helper) - cooperative, supporting, helping, healing/nurturing
Enterprising(persuader)-competitive environments, leadership
Conventional (organizer) - detail-oriented, organizing, clerical

The top three in order of preference reveal a career theme.
