Myers-Briggs Type Indicator

Nearly Tied for Best Career Assessment – Ages 14 and up 

The Myers-Briggs personality assessment reveals your preferences on four scales: Introversion-Extraversion, Sensing-Intuition, Thinking-Feeling, Judging-Perceiving.  You will also take the Keirsey Temperament Sorter and two other instruments to help determine your "best-fit" type. Explore which careers fit with your personality. According to Forbes, 89 of the Fortune 100 companies use the MBTI.

MBTI Personality Preferences

Through a series of questions, the MBTI assessment helps you identify your natural preferences in four areas of personality:

How do you direct and receive energy—by focusing on the outside world, interacting with people and taking action, or by focusing on your inner world and reflecting on ideas, memories, and experiences?
How do you take in information—by focusing on what you perceive using your five senses or by seeing the big picture and looking for relationships and patterns?
How do you decide and come to conclusions—by logically analyzing the situation or by considering what’s important to the people involved?
How do you approach the outside world—in a planned, orderly way or a more flexible, spontaneous way? 

Your natural preferences in these four areas sort you into one of 16 distinct MBTI personality types. Understanding these types gives you objective insight that you can use to enhance your professional and personal relationships, as well as your direction, focus, and choices.
