I took the Myers-Briggs personality test which helped me to determine what career would probably be suitable for me. I got the type "ENFJ" which was Extrovert, Intuition, Feeling and Judging. I know that the "extrovert" was a huge shock. On most personality tests I fall right in the middle of extrovert and introvert literally 1 percent over the line depending on the day. I am outgoing and not shy by any means, have no fear of public speaking etc, but I do get extremely peopled out and love my alone time. I would often rather be alone than with people (wow this sounds like I am very antisocial!!, but really, people make me tired!)
The rest I didnt really questiont too much but maybe that was because I didnt really understand them as well.
The "ENFJ" is known as the "pedagogue" and are known as outstanding leaders of groups. They can be agressive at helping others to be the best that they can be. This seems familiar. I don't typically like doing group projects, but when i do, I would rather just do it all myself and let the other people get credit too. (Not because of a giving heart, but really because I would rather do it my way!). This year I tried to do that but my partner (for another class) would not let me and I had to let him do his share of work which was a growing experience for me.
I found this:
ENFJs generally have the following traits:
Genuinely and warmly interested in people
Value people's feelings
Value structure and organization
Value harmony, and good at creating it
Exceptionally good people skills
Dislike impersonal logic and analysis
Strong organizational capabilities
Loyal and honest
Creative and imaginative
Enjoy variety and new challenges
Get personal satisfaction from helping others
Extremely sensitive to criticism and discord
Need approval from others to feel good about themselves (!!!!! yes yes yes !!!!)
The flexibility of these characteristics leave the ENFJ a lot of leeway in choosing a profession. As long as they're in a supportive environment in which they can work with people and are presented with sufficient diverse challenges to stimulate their creativity, they should do very well.
