Direct sales Jobs from RJN International - No1 for Jobs

Have you ever wondered why you like some jobs and hated others? It could be that you have been in jobs that just don't suit your personality type, therefore you struggle to find your ideal career.

In personality type, an extrovert usually is more sociable and prefers to work with others, so they could struggle if they had to work alone in an accounts department all day long, with just some log books to keep them company.

It's also true that most introverts, who are more reserved and thoughtful by nature, could struggle to be in a sales team, where they have to deliver presentations or be constantly in the spotlight.

But... this doesn't mean that we are all the same. When Carl Jung introduced his theory of personality type theory he noticed that he could predict many of his clients behavior once he understood their personality type.

Does this mean we are all put in a 'personality box'? No, this is not what he intended, as some extroverts can work very quietly on their own and produce their best work. But, he noted, they would probably struggle if they had to work constantly on their own, as they are energized in the company of others.

Many introverts, particularly famous classical musicians and artists, can perform in front of millions of people worldwide and really enjoy the experience. But, again Jung noted, they would struggle if they had to perform constantly every day, in front of people without having time alone, as they need to recharge their batteries and have time for reflection.

So you see, to find your ideal career you need to understand much more about yourself and how you prefer to operate in the workplace.
