These were extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience. Regarding extraversion, I was labeled as rather average, with high scores in cheerfulness and gregariousness, but low scores in activity level and assertiveness. I live at a more relaxed pace and sometimes enjoy time with others, but I usually like to be alone. In agreeableness, I was once again placed in the average category. I am ranked high in modesty and sympathy, but quite low in morality and trust. This means I may suffer from low self-esteem, and also easily feel pity for others; on the other hand, I see people as selfish and untrustworthy, and I also like to keep things to myself rather than reveal information willingly.  Conscientiousness held a higher average of scores than most of these categories, dutifulness, and orderliness being my highest. I keep my spaces tidy, live in routine, and have a high sense of my moral obligation. I lack In the category of self-discipline, and I mean really lack, but that doesn&#8217;t need further explanation. Neuroticism is the first category I was rated highly in, saying that I am extremely emotional&#8230; which upsets me. I am overall a very anxious person and it&#8217;s difficult for me to not worry about things, and also feel the effects of stressful situations more easily than a normal person. The only upside to these results is I rarely feel the need to fulfill my cravings. Finally, openness to experience, intellect, and emotionality are the top scores for me here. I&#8217;m aware of my own feelings and can express them when I&#8217;d like, and am also open to more unusual ideas. Overall, the above results are more or less accurate, but I also don&#8217;t do the best with these types of tests with the five answers to each question. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a potential employee, an employer may say my strengths include my balanced extraversion which highlights that I can work well within a team and help in creating a friendly work environment. My high levels of modesty and sympathy show that I can be more compassionate of coworkers&#8217; or subordinate&#8217;s feelings, creating a more harmonious work environment. Due to my orderliness and dutifulness, I can be depended on to stay well organized and complete my tasks as assigned. My creativity could also help bring crucial ideas to a team or insight that wouldn&#8217;t have been available previously. As for my weaknesses, I have low activity which means it can take some extra motivation to get me to complete my tasks. I also have trust issues, so working in a competitive environment could lower my want to collaborate. My lack of self-discipline could also make employers question my ability to complete tasks without some form of direct supervision. Finally, I may not be trusted in the most stressful situations because I might not handle them in a way the company would see fit. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Five categories were measured in the personality test we&#8217;ve been assigned to take.
