IPIP Results & Reactions

My extraversion score is quite low, I only got 27 in this dimension. I agree that I should get a low score on activity level and excitement seeking, because I don’t like adventures. But I should get a higher score on Friendliness and cheerfulness. I like to stay alone, but when talking with others, I am fun to stay with. My Agreeableness is low too, the score is 23. But I got a high score on Trust and Altruism. I always trust others and I can easily relate to others when they make decisions.My score of Conscientiousness is much higher than other dimensions with a score of 77. The highest score in this dimension is Orderliness. That is correct about me. I like everything well-organized. I always spend my weekend cleaning and I have always made schedules. For Neuroticism, I got 35. I only got 4 on Anger, so it dragged the whole score. It is really hard to make me feel angry. I always try to solve every problem happily and orderly. And I got average in other detailed categories. My score of openness to experience is amazingly low, I only got 3 points. I do not like adventure at all, so it is normal that I got 1 point in adventurousness. I got a low score in Imagination and Artistic Interests too. I love realistic things more, but I am trying to improve those.

I don’t think the potential employer will like my result, because I got a low score in most of the dimensions. But everything does have two sides, there is not absolute bad or good. My dream job is being a landscape photographer. So my results are not that bad for this position. My extraversion score is quite low, but it is not necessary to have a good communication skill being a photographer. That applies to Agreeableness too. In the wild places, I need to put myself in the first place and make sure I can be back safely. But if I am photographing with a group, those characteristics might be a weakness for me. I have a high Conscientiousness score, which means I have a clear target. So I will be more reliable to work alone in the wilderness. For Neuroticism, I am average. I will try my best to do everything but I can deal with pressure too. It is not easy to get anger and stay calm is important as a landscape photographer. The Openness to Experience part indicates that I am practical and conservative. Photography is like solving a math problem, controlling the correct Aperture, ISO and Exposure time is important. It requires more experience than imagination. But I need to improve my artistic interests and adventurousness to go more places and get better photos. But those are my thoughts, I hope it is similar to the views of employers.
