- Our Missouri Occupational Card Sort (MOCS) is a deck of ninety cards, each listing an occupational title on one side with descriptive information about the title on the reverse side. Each card includes the Holland Code of personality types. The MOCS has been developed as a means of assisting persons who are unclear about their present or future vocational choice. The process includes sorting titles into piles of Like, Dislike and Neutral/Undecided. The process continues as the individual sorts the cards into smaller stacks corresponding to the reasons for liking or disliking the occupations in the pile. Manual available (see pricing information below). An additional card sort deck* (with appendices) has cards with college majors on one side and possible occupations on the reverse side.
