Note : This is the third and final part of 'Career Finder'.Here we would discuss about the apt careers for each 'group'. (Eg. ISTJ, ESTJ, ISFJ etc.)
Career Choices & Career Aptitude Test Results
The
following list of professions is built on my impressions of careers which would
be especially suitable for each groups. It is meant to be a starting place,
rather than an exhaustive list. There are no guarantees that any or all of the
careers listed here would be appropriate for you, or that your best career
match is among those listed.
ISTJ
The
guardian
ISTJs
have one character trait which puts them at a definite advantage in terms of
career success - Perseverance. An
ISTJ can do almost anything that they have decided to do. However, there are
areas in which they will function more happily and naturally. An ISTJ will do
best in a career in which they can use their excellent organizational skills
and their powers of concentration to create order and structure. ISTJs seem to
fit extremely well into the Management
and Executive layer of the corporate business world.
Possible
Career Paths for the ISTJ:
- Business Executives,
Administrators and Managers
- Accountants and Financial
Officers
- Police and Detectives
- Judges
- Lawyers
- Medical Doctors / Dentists
- Computer Programmers, Systems
Analysts, and Computer Specialists
- Military Leaders
ESTJ
The Supervisor
ESTJs
have a lot of flexibility in the types of careers that they choose. They are
good at a lot of different things, because they put forth a tremendous amount
of effort towards doing things the right way. They will be happiest in leadership positions, however, because
they have a natural drive to be in charge. They are best suited for jobs which
require creating order and structure.
Possible
Career Paths for the ESTJ:
- Military leaders
- Business Administrators and
Managers
- Police / Detective work
- Judges

ISFJ
The nurturer
ISFJs
have two basic traits which help define their best career direction: 1) they
are extremely interested and in-tune with how other people are feeling, and 2)
they enjoy creating structure and order, and are extremely good at it. Ideally,
the ISFJ will choose a career in which they can use their exceptional people-observation skills to determine what people want
or need, and then use their excellent organizational abilities to create a
structured plan or environment for achieving what people want. Their excellent
sense of space and function combined with their awareness of aesthetic quality also gives them quite
special abilities in the more practical artistic endeavors, such as interior
decorating and clothes design.
Possible
Career Paths for the ISFJ:
- Interior Decorators
- Designers
- Nurses
- Administrators and Managers
- Administrative Assistants
- Child Care / Early Childhood

ESFJ
The enthusiast
The
ESFJ has two primary traits which will help define their best career direction:
1) they are extremely organized and enjoy creating order, and 2) much of their
self-satisfaction is gotten through giving
and helping others. Accordingly, they will do well at tasks which involve
creating or maintaining order and structure, and they will be happiest when
they are serving others.
Possible
Career Paths for the ESFJ:
- Home Economics
- Nursing
- Teaching
- Administrators
- Child Care

- Office Managers

ISTP
The realist
The
ISTP is fortunate because they have the abilities to be good at many different
kinds of tasks. Their introverted and thinking preferences give them the
ability to concentrate and work through problems which leaves many doors open
to them. However, to be happiest, the ISTP needs to lead a lifestyle which
offers a great deal of autonomy and
does not include much external enforcement of structure. ISTPs will do best working for themselves, or working in
very flexible environments. Their
natural interests lie towards applying their excellent reasoning skills against known facts and data to discover
underlying structure, or solutions to practical questions.
Possible
Career Paths for the ISTP
- Police and Detective Work
- Forensic Pathologists
- Computer Programmers, System
Analysts and Computer Specialists
- Engineers
- Carpenters
- Mechanics
- Pilots, Drivers, Motorcyclists
- Athletes

ESTP
The promoter
ESTPs
have some advantageous traits which are unique to their personality type. Their
skills of observation make them extremely good at correctly analyzing and assessing other peoples'
motives or perspectives. Their people skills allow them to use this knowledge
to their advantage while interacting with people. For this reason, ESTPs are excellent salespeople. They also have a
special ability to react quickly and
effectively to an immediate need, such as in an emergency or crisis situation.
This is a valuable skill in many different professions, perhaps most notably in
action-oriented professions, such as
police work. ESTPs enjoy new experiences and dealing with people, and dislike
being confined in structured or regimented environments. They also want to see
an immediate result for their actions, and don't like dealing with a lot of
high-level theory where that won't be the case. For these reasons, they should
choose careers which involve a lot of interaction with people, and do not
require performing a lot of routine, detailed tasks.
Possible
Career Paths for the ESTP:
- Sales Representatives
- Marketing Personnel
- Police / Detective Work
- Paramedic / Emergency Medical
Technician
- PC Technicians or Network
Cablers
- Computer Technical Support
- Entrepreneurs
ESFP
The performer
ESFPs
are good at many things, but will not be happy unless they have a lot of
contact with people, and a lot of new experiences. They should choose careers
which provide them with the opportunity to use their great people skills and practical perspective, which will also
provide them with enough new challenges that they will not become bored.
Possible
Career Paths for the ESFP:
- Artists, Performers and Actors
- Sales Representatives
- Counselors / Social Work
- Child Care
- Fashion Designers
- Interior Decorators
- Consultants
- Photographers

ISFP
The
ISFP is a very special individual who needs to have a career which is more than
a job. The middle of the road is not likely to be a place where they will be
fulfilled and happy. They need to have a career which is consistent with their
strong core of inner values. Since they prefer to live in the current moment,
and take the time to savor it, they do not do well with some of the more
fast-paced corporate environments. They need a great deal of space and freedom if they are going to function in
their natural realm of acute sensory awareness. If they give free reign to
their natural abilities, they may find a wonderful
artist within themselves. Almost every major artist in the world has been
an ISFP. Since the ISFP is so acutely aware of people's feelings and reactions,
and is driven by their inner values to help people, the ISFP is also a natural counselor and teacher.

Career Paths for the ISFP:

followers. ENTJs like to be in charge, and need to be in charge to take

so than any other personality type, INTJs are brilliant when it comes to grasping complex theories and applying them
to problems to come up with long-term strategies. Since this type of
"strategizing" is the central focus and drive of the INTJ, there is a
happy match between desire and ability in this type. Accordingly, the INTJ is
happiest and most effective in careers which allow this type of processing, and
which promote an environment in which the INTJ is given a lot of autonomy over
their daily lives.

prove or disprove them. They have a great deal of insight and are creative thinkers, which allows them to
quickly grasp complex abstract thoughts. They also have exceptional logical and rational reasoning skills, which allows
them to thoroughly analyze theories to discover the Truth about them. Since the
INTP is driven to seek clarity in the world, we have a happy match of desire
and ability in this personality type. INTPs will be happiest in careers which
allow them a great deal of autonomy in which they can work primarily alone on
developing and analyzing complex theories and abstractions, with the goal of
their work being the discovery of a truth, rather than the discovery of a
practical application.

INFJ is a special individual who needs more out of a career than a job. They

strong value systems - with what they believe to be right. Accordingly, the
INFJ should choose a career in which they're able to live their daily lives in
accordance with their deeply-held
principles, and which supports them in their life quest to be doing
something meaningful. Since INFJs have such strong value systems, and
persistent intuitive visions which lend them a sense of "knowing",
