What does OCC mean in OCCUPATION & POSITIONS

An Occupational Character Class (OCC) is a classification system used to evaluate job applicants by examining their past work experience and accomplishments. It assigns individuals to various occupational categories based on various criteria such as education, skills, experience and performance. The OCC helps employers determine what jobs an individual might be best suited for and whether or not they would be a good fit for the position.

The OCC evaluation looks at a person's past work experience, educational background, training received, qualifications and accomplishments to classify them into one of several occupational categories. This helps employers identify which applicants may have the skills and abilities needed to perform certain tasks successfully. The OCC also takes into account an individual's goals and objectives when evaluating them for a job opportunity.

Information that is typically included in the evaluation includes details about previous employment, educational achievements, training received and any other awards or recognition that have been received. Additionally, personal qualities such as communication skills, problem-solving ability and leadership potential are also taken into consideration when evaluating an applicant for a job opportunity through the OCC system.

Employers are typically responsible for administering their own OCC evaluations during the hiring process. However, there are independent organizations which provide third-party assessments that use the same criteria as those used by employers in their evaluations to ensure fairness and accuracy in results.

Yes, it is possible to challenge an assessment if you feel that your qualifications or experiences have been misrepresented or overlooked during the evaluation process. It’s important to provide proof of your qualifications when challenging an assessment; this could include diplomas or certificates from courses you’ve taken or references from previous employers attesting to your capabilities in certain areas.

Individuals should update their evaluations whenever they experience changes in their career such as new positions accepted at different companies or additional certifications earned. That way employers can have access to all relevant information regarding each applicant’s qualifications when they are assessing who might be best suited for a job opportunity available at their company.

Depending on the position being applied for some additional tests may be administered along with the OCC Evaluation such as aptitude tests or personality assessments which measure characteristics like motivation level and communication style that are important in most organizational settings.

Generally speaking no fees are associated with taking part in an Occupational Character Class Evaluation when applying for a position since it is up to employers to administer these tests during their recruiting processes; however if specialized testing services are required then fees could possibly be incurred depending on whom you hire.
