This file contains the general occupational interest (RIASEC) high-point codes and numeric profile data for each O*NET-SOC occupation.
Interest ratings are presented as two scales: OI reports the RIASEC level of each interest and IH presents “high-point codes”, the numbers of the RIASEC scales for the first, second and/or third highest ratings.
The high-point values represent the following elements:
| | 0.00 = No high point available | |
| | 1.00 = Realistic | |
| | 2.00 = Investigative | |
| | 3.00 = Artistic | |
| | 4.00 = Social | |
| | 5.00 = Enterprising | |
| | 6.00 = Conventional | |
The file is displayed in seven tab delimited fields with the columns named O*NET-SOC Code, Element ID, Element Name, Scale ID, Data Value, Date, and Domain Source. The seven fields are represented by one row. There are a total of 7,866 rows of data in this file.
