    The Career Ambition Quiz
    By Tatiana Polevoy
    Published June 11, 2007

    Do you live to work, or work to live? Are you ready to break the glass ceiling or any other obstacle between you and success? Or do you prefer to show up and wait until it’s five o’clock and your real life begins? Elvis Presley once said, “ambition is a dream with a V8 engine.” Test your engine and see if it belongs in a Hummer or a scooter.

    1. Your parents always encouraged you to…
    be a well-rounded person.
    go with the flow; who knows what’s in store?
    achieve your goals through hard work.

    2. You’ve just received an award for an outstanding achievement at work. In your thank-you speech, you…
    just thank your coworkers. You couldn’t have done it without them!
    acknowledge your accomplishments without forgetting to introduce your team.
    take advantage of the spotlight to talk up your ideas: after all, you’re the prizewinner!

    3. What do you like best about your job?
    The possibilities for moving up.
    The work itself.
    The daily routine and financial security.

    4. After graduation you…
    began looking for work immediately.
    already had a job lined up; you started the day after your last exam.
    waited a few months before starting your job hunt.

    5. Your definition of “work” is:
    An activity that is the source of inspiration and pride.
    Not the worst way to fill the day.
    An absorbing activity, as long as it doesn’t require too much overtime—life is for living!

    6. If you could be successful in only one area of life, it would be…
    family and relationships.
    work.
    neither family, nor work—you could never choose between the two.
