INFJ

being one of most rare types it means that it can be hard for people to understand us

INFJs are gentle, caring, complex and highly intuitive individuals. Artistic and creative, they live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities. Only one percent of the population has an INFJ Personality Type, making it the most rare of all the types."

INFJSo, what happens when they see that many others do not behave that way?? (only 2-3% of America’s population is this type, indeed most rare of all 16 types) Answer: Different levels of stress, confusion, irritation, etc.; typically nothing this type can’t handle. So, this is a NATURAL reaction on the part of this type, they are not doing anything wrong.

Your Personality type is ISFJ: Conservator. These people are service and work oriented - very loyal. They may suffer from fatigue and tend to be attracted to troublemakers. They are good nurses, teachers, secretaries, general practitioners, librarians, middle managers, and housekeepers. 6% of the total population.

INFP: "Questor". These people are idealistic, self-sacrificing, and somewhat cool or reserved. They are very family and home oriented, but don't relax well. High capacity for caring. High sense of honor derived from internal values. 1% of the total population.

Pretty dead on... thanks, apretty

INFJ: "Author". Strong drive and enjoyment to help others. Complex personality. 1% of the total population. These are serious students and workers who really want to contribute. They are private and easily hurt. They make good spouses, but tend to be physically reserved. People often think they are psychic. They make good therapists, general practitioners, ministers, and so on.

According to this, it sounds like I'm appropriately placed in social work.

Because your answers in one or more categories were split 50/50,
your personality type, XNTP, (an 'X' represents a split), is not perfectly defined.

Pfffffttt! :P That's not helpful.. or is it? I'm all and none? A Quantum MB?

INTJ: "Scientist". Most self-confident and pragmatic of all the types. Decisions come very easily. These are the most independent of all types. They love logic and ideas and are drawn to scientific research. They can be rather single-minded, though.. 1% of the total population.

I'm an annoying planner.

Toook some googling and such.. but found it:

Quote:

Often quiet and reserved, but often stimulating company, alert and outspoken. Usually interested mainly in ideas. Often enjoys parties and small talk — may argue for fun on either side of a question. Enjoys theoretical and scientific pursuits. Tend to have sharply defined interests. Enjoys solving problems with logic and analysis. Quick, ingenious, good at many things. Apt to turn to one new interest after another. Resourceful in solving new and challenging problems, but may neglect routine assignemnts. Need careers where some strong interest can be used and be useful. Skillful in finding logical reasons for what they want.

This actually does fit me as a Technical Trainer and the myriad of things that entails.

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.

INTP:"Architect" - Greatest precision in thought and language. Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies. They are good at logic and math and make good philosophers and theoretical scientists, but not writers or salespeople. 1% of the total population.

Always the same and always describes me fairly well. Pretty much the only personality test that's ever really gotten much right. As far as the career part, it's consistant with what I studied in university/will continue to study in uni, and hopefully eventually go on to do at a higher level. I really enjoy philosophy and critical theory. Doesn't mention my current job, though I think that's because of the reputation it tends to have, unfortunately. Actually, part of the reason why I'm unhappy at my current job is because it does involve sales lol
