Question #1179303871 | Wednesday, 16-May-2007 |
|
|
Hello, I am taken this test before and scored as an INFp. I am currently working in a laboratory in a capacity that requires me to do mainly repetitive and simple tasks. Therefore, I find my job to be quite monotonous. I feel that I have become significantly more melancholy and depressed since beginning work there. When I read the part of the INFp profile on your site that states that INFp personalities cannot stand monotony it struck a chord with me. My question is: what advice do you have for me for future job selection? Is it worth it to keep this job even though it makes me depressed considering it is well-paying and is occasionally (albeit rarely) stimulating? Any advice is muchly appreciated! Thanks, Andrew -- Andrew |

A1 i am inclined to advise against using any type theory to choose your career. listen to your heart, it knows what's best for you. if you are indeed an INFp, i think it's a good idea to wait for better jobs to come along and in the meantime, work at the lab. i don't think you should stay there forever because you obviously don't like the job. and of course, jobs don't come looking for you, you have to take the initiate. at least pay attention to the job market. good luck! -- Anonymous |
A2 I agree with A1, and add that being an INFp you could find a job involving people more interesting - something like a teacher or a consultant. I have also noticed that INFps are happy with jobs that require bringing a vision to reality, so if you can find something like this... -- Ezis |
