Yesterday in work, some of us were talking about the Myers Briggs personality test. I had taken it years ago, and came up with a particular personality typing. It's understandable to see why these tests are used in employment processes because they do paint a very close picture of a person's personality. Of course, nothing in life is truly black and white - and there are always "exceptions to the rule", but generally speaking they're pretty much spot on.
So last night, I took the test again. And interestingly enough, I came up with the same results I came up with the last time I took it. So clearly, I am who I am!
And truthfully, there's no surprise in my results. I could've told you this is what my personality is like, but just not using such psychological terms.
I am an ENTJ: Extraverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging (Extraverted Thinking with Introverted Intuition). Otherwise lovingly known as the "Executive", or "Field Marshall".
"Executive/Field Marshall": The basic driving force and need is to lead. Tend to seek a position of responsibility and enjoys being an executive. 5% of the total population.
If you'd like to read a little bit more about my personality -which is eeriely accurate: http://www.e-mbti.com/entj.php
Got some time? Take the test yourself!
And see if your personality is defined the same as how you think you are!
