Impostor Syndrome Test | CareerChoicer.com

When I am handed new responsibility, I keep waiting for the moment it turns out I am not up to it.

I play down praise in my head right away - surely it was nothing difficult.

When I succeed, the first explanation that comes to mind is a lucky coincidence.

In meetings it crosses my mind that everyone else sees deeper into the topic than I do.

When something works out for me, I tell myself anyone could have managed it.

I owe my current position more to good timing than to ability.

I feel like an actor who performs expertise rather than actually having it.

When I see a piece of work through, I can admit the credit is mine.

At exams and interviews I tend to be lucky with the questions.

I feel firmly on solid ground in what I do.

After every goal I meet, I move the bar so the success stops counting.

I consider my successes the result of my own work.

Before presenting my own work I tend to fear that the gaps in my knowledge will surface.

In feedback I mainly hear the reservations - the praise part passes me by.

When a project turns out well, I put it down mainly to circumstances falling into place.

The roles I find myself in feel a size too big for who I really am.

I can list what I have achieved so far without embarrassment.

I have a feeling people judge me leniently, and that is why I get by.

When someone puts me to the test in depth, I hold my ground.

I treat diplomas and certificates as papers that say little about me.

I know that when I am doing well, it is no accident.

Done!
