My brother was telling about this personality test that tells you what job you should be in. Each of the 71 questions presents three options. You have to pick what you most want to do and least want to do of the three choices. One of these questions was interesting/baffling:
* Work with theory, concepts, options, strategy
* Work with ideas, values, ethics, principles
* Work with plans, design, systems, procedures
What’s the difference between these items? Aren’t these basically the same thing? And why is ethics grouped with ideas? “beliefs” would be a better word there.
Also, “theory” doesn’t really jive with “options.” Theory is more like coming up with a singular idea to explain something.
Here’s an example of what the free results look like (161k, pdf file) You have to pay to get the full results.
I’ve taken that test before … I’m supposed to be a jazz musician … No, I’m not kidding
Yeah, there was a lot of musician questions on there. And a lot of airline stewardess questions.
