My personality results were a little surprising but not as much, because I am aware of my personality traits. I have been what is considered a Type 1 personality. I think this personality type seen as “perfectionist who desire to reform and improve. I think this is a solid description of my personality. I don’t think I am 100% a Type 1 personality but I do share many of these personality types 1 traits. This personality type is known to be perfectionist who thrives on order and improvement. This personality type is more the “natural born organizers, leaders etc. These personality types are action-based people. Words without action is not something we take well to; this would be a more of “action speak louder than words” type of people. We are more practical people than most people.
I think when it comes to hiring these are the types of people many companies look to hire. They are typically self-driven and motivated; they are typically adaptable people and innovative because they are always looking to improve. They are hard workers, responsible and perfectionists. They are great at influencing others as well. They do great in leadership roles. I think many of the qualities I mentioned earlier in this paragraph are great strengths for this personality type when it comes to the hiring in the selection process. I think a weakness of this personality type can be their need for perfection which can be a strength but if the person does not know how to balance their perfectionist ways while still meeting deadlines and being efficient in the workplace this can become an issue because it can slow down productivity. I also think another weakness for this personality type is they are prone to be more anxious and depending on the work environment and type of work they are hired to do; this can put a lot of stress on this individual because they are more prone to anxiety. Overall, even with their weak point I think Type 1 personality types are usually one of the lead personality types many companies look to hire.
