Planning 10 - Lesson #18

Lesson #18 - Your Personality and Your Career

Remember Lesson #4 where you were asked to do a "Myers-Briggs Jung Personality Test"?  You were assigned 4 LETTERS - either I or E, N or S, F or T, and P or J.  Well - when it comes to careers - some lend themselves better to certain personality types.  Click on the following link to find careers that may suit your personality.  (Please keep in mind that these are just suggestions - this is not scientifically proven - it just shows trends - it is meant to get you started looking at careers and not "determine" your career path).

Careers based on personality type

Have a look at the "poster" - it provides quite a bit of interesting information.  To the right of the poster, click on the link that says "Discover Careers".  Scroll down until you find the four letters that describe your personality type, click on this - investigate careers that might interest you.  Use the information to complete the following assignment.

ASSIGNMENT (10 marks)

1.  Suggest 2 careers that are recommended for your personality type.  Explain what it is about your personality that lends itself well to each career.

2.  Do either of these careers seem like something that might interest you?  Why or why not?
