Measure Your Emotional Intelligence, Free 10-Question EQ Test

There are two main ways to frame EQ. The ability model (Mayer & Salovey) treats it as a set of four skills: perceiving emotions, using emotions to aid thinking, understanding emotions, and managing emotions. The mixed model (Goleman) frames it as five domains: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. JobCannon's test draws on these established frameworks to give you a read across the core domains, self-awareness, emotional regulation, empathy, and social skill, rather than a single black-box number.

Unlike IQ, which is relatively fixed, EQ is widely considered learnable: practices like naming your emotions, pausing before reacting, active listening, and seeking feedback measurably strengthen these skills over time. That's the point of the test, not to hand you a verdict, but to show you which domains are already strengths and which are the highest-leverage places to grow. It's free, takes about two minutes, and gives you actionable direction instantly with no signup.
