Based on the results for the MBTI assessment, my type is ESTJ. My type includes preferences for extraversion, sensing, thinking and judging. ESTJ individuals are said to be people who enjoy working in groups, “go-getters”, have a variety of friends, enjoys making decisions and planning work to avoid rushing. The results for the Strong Inventory Test differed by the percentages of preference clarity and theme codes. The highest percentage for the preference clarity was E (extroversion) 24, J (judging) 22, S (sensing) 18, T (thinking) 13. The theme code scores were increasingly high for SAE, S (social) 58%, A (artistic) 53%, and E (enterprising) 47%. The theme code scores matched my personality almost perfectly. For example, I am a very social person as far as having many friends and working well in groups. When choosing a career I will consider my strengths, values and skills.
