The Ultimate Career Test

[Zapz]

<p>I’ve done this twice, so I’m not going to do it again.</p>

<p>I’m INTJ. I felt, while reading the description, I was reading about me. =o</p>

[tbolts856]

<p>ISTJ.</p>

<p>And lol at the description of it:</p>

<p>“These are dependable pillars of strength. They often try to reform their mates and other people. They make good bank examiners, auditors, accountants, and phys. ed. teachers, and boy or girl scouts! 6% of the total population.”</p>

<p>Where the **** did phys ed teachers come from? Haha.</p>

[QwertyKey]

<p>ENTP…</p>

<p>ENTP: “Inventor”. Enthusiastic interest in everything and always sensitive to possibilities. Non-conformist and innovative. 5% of the total population.</p>

<p>systems designer
venture capitalist
actor
journalist
investment broker
real estate agent
real estate developer
strategic planner
political manager
politician
special projects developer
literary agent
restaurant/bar owner
technical trainer
diversity manager
art director
personnel systems developer
computer analyst
logistics consultant
outplacement consultant
advertising creative director
radio/TV talk show host</p>

<p>In reality I really don’t care and just want a job that pays a lot of money.</p>

<p>I think I’m more balanced between E/I and between J/P, but definately N and T. So not really off at all, pretty good pegging. Though I can be more “disenthusiastic” about everything as opossed to enthusiastic.</p>

<p>INTJ - Scientist.</p>

<p>When stress increases, the INTJ can become argumentative and disagreeable. Social interaction, which is not their strength, becomes increasingly difficult for them. Not trusting their own abilities, they become preoccupied with obsessive notions. The INTJ may then find themselves spending an inordinate amount of time fighting horrible thoughts, tempting absurdities, and feelings of worthlessness. Fearful of others recognizing their perceived failure, the INTJ incessantly ruminates about mistakes, inadequacies, weaknesses, ineptness, and incompetence. Because this distracts them from risking what little confidence they may have left in themselves, it therefore keeps them from obtaining the success and achievement they so desperately need.</p>

<p>^ that defines me perfectly. rather scary.</p>

[harvardlawviolin]

<p>My personality type is ESTJ. It says I am an administrator.</p>

[GeekNerd]

<p>This test… again… lol.
EI 17%
SN 70%
TF 58%
JP 47%</p>

<p>ENFJ: “Pedagogue”. Outstanding leader of groups. Can be aggressive at helping others to be the best that they can be. 5% of the total population.</p>

<p>Erm, YES, NO and LOL.
I have previously gotten an ISTP.
ENFJ/ISTP: Job: World Domination, Politics, Mathematics and Gene Technology</p>

<p>There’s a rather silly weakness with this test. You see, its whole concept of labeling people is in question. An example of a good typecasting test would be a testosterone test on a logarithmic scale. You’ll get two frequency distribution peaks evenly away from the center. And you’ll call them “Woman/Child” and “Man”. The Myers-Briggs dimension frequency distributions, on the other hand, have a normal distribution. The interpretations of clear-cut results will work, but the methodology is full of fail.</p>

[QwertyKey]

<p>I took this again and got the same, ENTP. I don’t remember the percents I had last time, but I was pretty strongly ENT (23%, 70%, 17%) but very close between P and J (52%). For many of the questions I really wasn’t sure what to put, but the fact that it gave me the same answer speaks pretty highly of the test. I’m quite impressed. </p>

<p>I think both the ENTP and ENTJ jobs list sound like the types of things I would want to be. There’s actually a few that overlap. Logistics consultant for one, is something that would be part of one of the majors I am considering (and the other one I’m only considering because it has better employment opportunities).</p>

[QwertyKey]

<p>Sorry I can’t edit anymore. But I would suggest people also Google their results. From the description they have I really feel like I could be both ENTP or ENTJ, but after seeing some other ones I think I am definitely ENTP. </p>

<p>I think anyone trying should take this test seriously. If you do I bet you get pretty accurate responses.</p>

[QuantumLipids]

<p>I was INTP. Why couldn’t the description have been at least a little positive? It did describe basically all my personal flaws, though.</p>

[MattNC]

<p>ESTP: Promoter
These are action-oriented people, often sophisticated, sometimes ruthless – our “James Bonds.” As mates, they are exciting and charming, but they have trouble with commitment. They make good promoters, entrepreneurs, and con artists. 13% of the total population.
EI: 8/17 47%
SN: 6/17 35%
TF: 5/17 29%
JP: 11/17 64%</p>

[QwertyKey]

<p>" Why couldn’t the description have been at least a little positive? It did describe basically all my personal flaws, though."</p>

<p>Sounds pretty good to me… “They are good at logic and math and make good philosophers and theoretical scientists”</p>

[fledgling]

<p>Retook the test and got INTJ. I’ve been consistently scoring INTJ on every personality test I’ve taken in the past year or so, so I’m assuming that’s what my actual personality type is.</p>

[noimagination]

<p>It gave me ESTJ, but I usually get ENTJ. The T and J are both absolutely certain (1 and 2 respectively), while the E is fairly strong and the S is borderline. The first paragraph of ENTJ seems very accurate to me:

ENTJ’s can get ahead of themselves and jump to conclusions in their effort to get things done. They may need to be reminded to take the time to listen to other points of view. Being tough-minded, ENTJ’s have a tendency to ignore their own and others’ feelings. With a burning desire to achieve — and a constant eye on how current decision will effect end results — ENTJ’s may become overly argumentative when obstacles get in their way. Small talk and casual conversations appear frivolous and without merit when projects are at hand. This, along with the NT’s nature of being impervious to social conventions and customs, can cause others to feel affronted.

</p>

[applicannot]

<p>I’ve consistently scored INTJ since the sixth grade, when I first discovered Jung Typology. I remember reading the description the first time (the one linked to from Humanmetrics) and feeling as if an older me had written it for me. I’d never heard this before, though:</p>

</p>

<p>That describes my experience with driving perfectly.</p>

<p>and “inordinate amount of time fighting horrible thoughts”</p>

<p>I was worried I was becoming some kind of suicidal depressive. Ar least I’m not the only one.</p>

[Tappmann]

<p>ENTP here. I usually oscillate between ENTP and ENTJ.</p>

<p>E/I: 12%
S/N: 88%
T/F: 32%
J/P: 52%</p>

<p>ENTP is pretty accurate for me, though. I’m very disorganized and occasionally get burned because of it. I think I have less of a stress anxiety than your typical ENTP, though.</p>

[JamesGold]

<p>INTP, for the better or for the worse.</p>

[sg12]

<p>

Sounds pretty good to me… “They are good at logic and math and make good philosophers and theoretical scientists”

</p>

<p>I’m guessing you didn’t click on the INTP link to see the more detailed description. There was literally nothing positive in it.</p>
