The CASI is a 130-item career checkup that surveys beliefs, events, and forces affecting an individual's career and identifies influences or problems requiring further discussion and exploration.

The CASI provides a comprehensive inventory of a person's current work situation that includes common attitudes and beliefs, as well as strategies for coping with job, family, coworkers, and supervisors. This inventory assesses the likelihood of job stability and helps to clarify situations the individual may perceive as career obstacles.

The CASI surveys nine aspects of career or work adaptation:

• Job Satisfaction
• Interpersonal Abuse
• Work Involvement
• Family Commitment
• Skill Development
• Risk-Taking Style
• Dominant Style
• Geographical Barriers
• Career Worries

A special section on the answer sheet allows clients to check specific areas of concern from a list of 21 potential career obstacles, such as health or emotional problems, financial worries, education.
