The only value i got out of this test was learning why the department manager in the equities division was such a POS.
INTJ with Scorpio rising.
What in the world is cagoule? How about “could” instead.
I now see where Obama is an ENTP according to this, but I think the author misreads Obama as a discontented centrist would, rather than as someone familiar with his Alinskyite tactics would.
LOL
Me also.
Fascinating post on INTJ’s clustered in computer science.
I am INTJ, but not a techie. Writer and developmental editor. Also close to center in I vs E, depending upon what’s going on in my life at the time. Working as a department head, I was much closer to E; retired, definitely I. I’ve seen this categorized as XNTJ.
INTJ’s comprise only .03% of the female population. I share this distinction with Hitlery, if certain analysts are to be believed. Big sigh.
I favor the ancient Greek’s quadrant approach (Galen’s four types: cholerics, melancholics, phlegmatics, and sanguines). Add that there only two types of humans (conscious and unconscious, relating to recognizing why they do what they do), and you have a very useful sorting system.
One would think that preferences would dictate actions. As an INTJ, I'm inclined to seek certain lines of work. Anyone who hired me to deal with the public would be very sorry very soon, and so would I. But give me a research project, and I'm happy as a clam. Clam being the operative word.
Brilliant! Your original work?
ENFP
Extroverted Nutty Flake
I completely agree. I was placed in a particular organization spot that was detrimental to my skills based on a marginal difference in scoring that penalized my professional growth for years.
I didn’t need to take the test to know I’m an introvert. I hate crowds & after being around people all day, I’m exhausted. My sister is really big into MB & what it means..she made me take it..INTJ (suh-prize!), although she said I’m INSJ or some such. I’m alphabet soup.
For my new job, which I start next month, I had to take the Wonderlic test..and some personality profile test (not MB).
I’m an STFU. Or was it a BYOB?
tell me I'm not a mastermind; why, I ought to ...
Thanks! I’m stealing that! :)
Can nobody in this world spell “bureaucrat”?
Some personality types do better in different jobs. Extroverts tend to do better in jobs. You want a detailed oriented person as an accountant.
However, there shouldn’t be a personality test and then being told “you can’t have the job, you’re one letter off” despite education, experience and credentials.
I’ve taken this test before.
Completely asinine and of no use.
Doesn’t account for things it cannot.
