Career Assessment Series: Using MBTI for Career Success

Mar 26 2024 • 27 mins

Join us in our latest episode to examine how the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) can illuminate the intricacies of our personalities to help us in finding career fulfillment. We share our journeys through the MBTI, shedding light on the importance of using such tools to gain self-awareness with the guidance of career counselors.

We delve into the dynamic interplay between extroversion and introversion, sensing and intuition, and all the ways our natural inclinations can shape our work lives. It's about embracing your detailed planner or your adaptable maverick—recognizing that every trait has its place under the office lights. By sharing our own experiences, we hope to reveal just how transformative an awareness of our personality can be in aligning our careers with our true selves.

Finally, we recognize that not everyone can access the official MBTI, which is why we look at alternative personality assessments like 16 Personalities and Truity. They offer a different lens through which to view ourselves, without the price tag. As we tease future episodes on assessments like the Strong Interest Inventory and CliftonStrengths, consider this an invitation to join us in the quest for career clarity. These tools are more than just quizzes; they're stepping stones to finding where you belong in the grand tapestry of the professional world.
