Career Assessment When I was told we were going to be taking a personality test, I was really at the least enthusiastic about it. In high school I was taken through countless tests that would “find the perfect job” for me, and they never seemed to help. This Jung Typology test was different, I was pleasantly surprised.

delved into the MBTI inventory, I gained great insight as to what the personality preferences meant and how I can use them in my favor throughout my life. The biggest relief for me was learning that no one personality type is better than the other. It is all a matter of preferences and proclivities. In my mind, the word “introvert” had a negative connotation to it. It represented a deficiency in something. It was more like a personality trait that is inadequately lacking in…

-According to the Myers-Briggs type personality test, my type is ENFJ (34% Extravert, 9% Intuitive, 34% Feeling, and 12% Judging).

1. My personality type is ISTJ. I was not really surprised to get this because I have taken the full version test in high school, but I am happy to see that the results are consistent.

I am perfectly okay with having time to myself. I…
