[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 18534, member: 1161"] I took it about 11 years ago, so don't remember too much about it really, sorry. It's a test that measures 4 areas, Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. All I remember of mine was that I had a very very low dominance rating, an almost all the way to the top influence rating and kinda mediumish on the other 2. The tester said she'd never seen a result like mine before, where my dominance factor was so low and yet my influence was so high. She said this indicated that I was in no way agressive etc., but could get people to do what I wanted. She asked if this was so, and I thought about it and said yes usually, and she asked how I got people to do what I wanted and I really didn't know LOL. I think they're probably looking for not too high a dominance factor, which would be a strong willed, aggressive, ambitious kind of person. Probably memium to high on the influence, which is someone who is enthusiasic, warm, demonstrative, optimistic. medication to high on the steadiness factor, calm, relaxed, consistent. And medium to high on the concientiousness as well, which is neat, accurate, tactful, diplomatic. You can't really do anything to influence what your factors will be, you answer the questions pretty much your first thought. You might be able to figure out some questions, which factor they're supposed to be for, I don't know. I wasn't going for any particular outcome. The company I'd worked for for 17 years was closing and offered career counselling so figured I'd try it out and see what it said. I did a couple tests, and can't remember which one, I think it might have been the disc, they gave me a list of careers that my personality type usually found rewarding. All I remember was at the top of the list was priest, rabbi, nun [img]:smile:[/img] and several similar. As she said, it really had nothing to do with ability or beliefs or training etc. What those types of careers all had in common was working with people and helping them. Honestly, I would probably find the work traditionally done by them very rewarding personally. Go figure LOL. [/QUOTE]
