Tips for using Focus 2 (sometimes misspelled "Focus2")
- Start by working on sections that are more relevant to you. You do not have to complete every section. Select the ones that best meet your needs at this time.
- Each section takes 10 to 15 minutes; the whole program takes less than 2 hours to complete.
- You may exit and return to the program at any time.
- If you have questions or would like to review your reports with a career counselor, email career@2fitfashion.com or call (509) 527-2313.
Discover your personality type. This indicator can be very beneficial in showing why and how we like to work. It takes approximately 30 minutes to complete online. If you would like to review your results further, contact the Student Development Center for an appointment.
