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.

I think everyone should take a personality test at some point just…

My personality type is ENTJ, or Extraverted, Intuitive, Thinking and Judging. These four components…

The Myers-Briggs Personality Test is an assessment tool used to offer insight into how individuals think, function, and thrive (Myers & Briggs Foundation, 2016).

A Worldview is an intellectual, emotional, and spiritual framework by which you view reality, make sense of life and apply…
