What Careers Do the 16 Personalities Prefer? 

What are the jobs in which I can stay cool and attractive? Asking for a friend

@@arcanecontent You already are cool and attractive 👍

Grammerly... my persistent stalker. It has found me in my safe place o.o /j

@@thegreatsalad He knows that, but he wants to also stay this way

So even though I’m an Infj, I can be a firefighter/paramedic?!! Yay!!!

Sameee

Same here 🤣

My tip is to write a list of things you're considering and then write a letter explaining to an imaginary future employer why you'd be so good at each. A few might end up being longer and more detailed than the others 🙂 So then you can narrow it down to those. Good luck 🌸🙂

I am an INFP Horticulturist👍

Yes xd

Without actually learning anything

Yes we do

@@kartik7065 haha

Yes,i want to learn and do ...like EVERYTHING. And i have Only one LIFE.

I am even not sure about my personality type at this point

girl, sameee

Those were literally my greatest passions as an INFP, and it made life in the real word so hard. XD Until I made peace with the fact that a 'dream job' scenario simply wasn't going to happen for me (at least not anytime soon) and found a reasonable compromise that pays decently and leaves plenty of time and flexibility to do what I want in my free time.

@@Multitudes_ haha what's this job that is not a 9 to 5 job and pays decently enlighten me pls

My dream job... a philosopher writer artist

@@annakarenina2735 I'm a freelance editor. I think freelance work or self-employment in general is a good fit for people like us, but it can be hard to make it happen! It took a while before I got to the point where I had enough work (and well-paying enough work, because there's a lot of poorly paying jobs in this field) to actually make a living this way. It's probably easier if you go for something like programming or another computer-related specialty.

I am a INTP and programming fits me very well - and it is realistic and not too hard to land a job

I have done any job in my past, it didn't end well

Even tho I'm only 13, I still have 0 idea what I want to do. (As well as me being an intp makes it hard for me to go out amd get experience with things)

LOL hey found my INTP buddies!

I don't mind being friends just don't touch me and don't ask why I sit the way I do

Is this why I'm stuck duel majoring in two very separate fields xD

Wow super cool

You do really think like an INFP XD My older brother is an INFP and I can notice these same things happens with him Btw, ENTJ here

That sounds like my brain but I end up forcing myself to do things anyways until I find something new

You can find jobs like that as a software engineer, especially if you work for a small company where you are the only developer.

I’m an INTJ but that also seems like my ideal career.

An INFJ going into psychology because I’m already depressed ✌️😁😂

OMG! INFJ physics student here. 100% relate to you. I took a paper this semester on the psychology of well being and ended up crying in a lecture while the prof was talking about an interview with a person from a poor economic background. I love psychology but my mind can't handle it

Yup, another INFJ physicist here, way fewer emotions to have to deal with! I don't mean that in a 'I don't care about emotions' kind of way. The opposite, really, I get too affected by them to work with primarliy with people!

*waves . INFJ Architect 😅

I am studying law right now and I've always found that very suiting to my personality type xD

@@flusel4949 that's great! Hopefully you found your calling

@@333invitado I hope so! Right now I‘m just trying to decide which direction to go... on the one hand I would love to be a criminal defence lawyer, but being an F-type I also highly sympathise with the victims and I don‘t know if I could defend someone wholeheartedly who I know to be guilty, which is the case most of the time (I know they need defence, too, but I‘m not sure, if I could try to do everything I can for my client, if I feel that this would lead to a result that I couldn‘t reconcile with my sense of justice...)

im an intj and i feel the sameeee

I totally know what you mean! Even though my job will be mostly a desk job (I‘m studying law) I sometimes wish I would have chosen a job where I just fo manual work most of the time. Preferably something were I can‘t cut of my hands, if I zone out too much 😂

Wow I'm the same! I first thought that my future will involve desk type or somethin like that then the same thought or idea gradually comes to mind like yours because really I love dozing of my thoughts, thinking deeply while also doing something I think I'll enjoy and getting active at the same time.

Man, for me is the same. I always think about a job like that. Oh and what's your favorite anime ? Mine is Steins Gate.

Oh my gosh this is so relatable, I am also a media design student INFP! However when listening to music earlier I thought I should maybe give it a shot and just become a rockstar lol

@@dariobarboni9276 Yuri!!! On Ice. I just fell in love with that anime *-* currently watching Jujutsu Kaisen :)

I find it annoying how ESTJs think they know what they want to do when it is actually wrong for them and they don’t care why enough to find out or change their minds. Personally, I have had a paid manual job that I claim I liked but for the context in which I was doing it (a mildly embarrassing story). What did I think I was doing there, assembling woodwinds?

😭but it hurts

There's two type of INFP in the world, the artistic type who can't decide what they want to be and the INFP with non INFP career but enjoys drawing and going to their dream world in their free time

Hey fellow INFP here. I’ve been looking around and international relations has seemed like something I might consider majoring in. However, while I was doing online research I’ve found that most people don’t have very successful outcomes. I’m wondering if international relations is worth it and if you know anybody that created something successful out of their international relations masters degree.

@@gloriamartinez5540 Hello there! It really depends on the country and city you're from. Here, in Ukraine, people see success very differently and, for example, one of the girls that I know who majored in IR has moved to Poland and then to Germany to study translation after that. She has earned enough money to start her online business. She got a really nice linguistic practice while studying IR but that's it. Other girl has moved to Germany to teach at the local university. The majority of my fellow students are tutoring English or German, but that's because they weren't actually interested in pursuing a diplomatic career. A lot of people that used to teach at my department are very young and already successfully engaged in the local politics which is nice, that's what they wanted. IR can be beneficial for you if you love foreign languages and/or politics. But the diploma is just the first step, you gotta think of the next moves, as with anything else.

I wheezed at the last part

@@brave_bunny Thank you for answering my question, I appreciate it!

This made me lol

Yes, that's the spirit. S'better to try than live with the regret of never trying and never knowing. I wish you success with your passion✨✨❤️❤️

I think INFPs can actually be very successful in acting. They are rooted so much in fantasy already, lol, that they can do a great job of portraying characters.

I'm an INFP who also works in mental health, but from home so my time is flexible. I also homeschool my youngest and I'm working on another degree. Like you, I use all kinds of things I come across in studies, everyday life, etc. to help people with their issues! Give us a bit of freedom and we can do anything!

Wow..

Lol

I already am lol

That sounds like an awesome job. If people got paid for that, it would be a really competitive market. It's not my skill set but I can appreciate the art.

can you get paid for that? asking for a friend.

WE NEED TO LIVE LIKE THAT

I changed major to software development from Heath care :)) this makes me excited

@@BallzDeepAnxiety I almost went into health care too! Have fun and dont be afraid to get your hands dirty with tutorial projects while in college!

Jobs in the game industry are pretty "ambivert" jobs since you do things in your mind and immediately test them in the outside world to see how/if they work, whitch fits the "ENFP stereotype"!

I've been looking at an ethnology/anthropology collage program! Is it worth it or should I stick with international relations?

that sounds so cool! I've been curious about anthropology myself (also an INFP). how do you like it so far? been considering taking some classes about it.

@@audreylee1699 depends on what you’re trying to do with the degree, and what subfield of anthropology you’re planning on entering. If you’re trying to get into Social Work, I’d say you’re just as well off taking either. If you are trying to get into politics or business/marketing, I would recommend sticking with international relations. I’m currently in cultural anthropology, which is the studying of different cultures around the world, and I’m planning on entering academia to write ethnographies for academic journals. However other fields like Forensic Anthropology would be good if your trying to get into forensics or autopsy work. Biological anthropology is good if your trying to become an evolutionary scientist. And archeology is another sub-field of anthropology which is a normal path forward for Anthro majors. As an undergrad, I’d say that you may be able to get more job offering solely from a degree in International Relations, though if you were to go to Grad school, a masters in anthropology would take you even further than a masters in International Relations. A bachelors in really any sub field of anthropology would open the door to getting a masters in other anthropological sub-fields as well (which is very diverse in an of itself). They are both very similar, though Anthropology is more abstract about applying knowledge from other subjects and analyzing how you personally relate to a different culture’s practices, while International relations often shares more similarities with a political science class. Best case scenario is that you get a double major or a minor, as knowledge you learn in one class may be directly applicable to the other.

@@rburns1182 I love it to death!!! It pushes your boundaries of what you may consider to be human nature. If you can conceive it, it is very possible that there is a culture in the world which would believe it.

omg you put my exact emotions and feelings into words !! im a pretty awkward person but i love learning other people’s experiences and learning. I’m an INFP as well.

I'm turning 18 this year, just about to finish school and I still dunno what I wanna be, lol😅 Keep exploring all your interests/ideas. And remember the path to the future is flexible, you don't have to pick one road and stick to it you can change your mind and pursue different things at any point. Wishing you good luck with highschool 👍💜 ~fellow INFJ

I am an INFJ too and this is my last year at school, when I was going into the first year I was also very confused but then I understood that high school doesn't define what you're going to be in life and although I'm very extremist and I always think for a long and short time, I've seen a lot of people who finish their last year of school and then it's dedicated to something totally different, so don't worry too much, I'll also try not to do it. Life is short, and we shouldn't spend too much time stressing about those thoughts, although as INFJs sometimes it's hard

I'm half way through highschool. I am also an INFJ who doesn't know what she wants to do. I wanted to be an undercover cop, a criminal psychologist, a writer, a singer and a teacher. But everytime I ask what people think I should do they just tell me "Whatever you want". So I understand 🤣

aww this is my favorite comment - ENFP

I will be an ESFP paidopsychiologist (psychologist for children) and I think they will be enjoying if they are extraverts. I don't quite know the introverted ones will do. I will figure it out

Our greatest job struggle. People just don't seem to realise I don't like children enough to want to work with them

Even in elementary school everyone kept telling me I would make a good teacher....hhmm idk. we will see

I'm an INFP and I would like to be biology teacher, I think I can handle it and let my knowledge flow to other people is just amazing, I mean, I know how face young people, I have 6 little siblings

My ENFJ Mom’s an English professor, and while the annoying part of the job are the coworkers, she does enjoy meeting new students and interacting with them!(little less now cause of corona)

I’m an ENFJ that is in school for psychology and I’m opening a private practice after a few years and people keep telling me to be a professor in the future lol

But I do thinked like that sometimes, like 'Why would you shut up and be quiet instead of finding a solutions to the problem?' even if it cause us a fight, but still, at least we could find why this things or that happened. If we keep holding it on... Sometimes, we won't find a solutions for it. And could've lead to a lot of misunderstandings...

Im an INFJ too and a graduate and post grad in life sciences but lost interest from it

Never really had a "career." Several jobs though, and always felt lost. Now being creative. Think that was my "thing" all along. -fellow INFJ

Follow your gut. That's my advice as a fellow INFJ.

That must be hard. I am an INFJ and I felt so depressed when my life was so uncertain and lost. Just hold on and maybe start journaling or talking out loud to yourself(I do this sometimes when I am alone in my room and I get insights about myself that I did not think about previously). I think eventually you will see a pattern of things you love and wish to pursue.

Thank you, you make me feel better about insecurities with sticking with a scientific career. In the end, the capability of understanding well others' thoughts, intentions and goals - along with understanding the best way of explaining something to them - can be helpful anywhere you work in deep conceptualization.

Do you need to have a computer science bachelors degree or do you think I could still work in that field if I have a mechanical engineer in degree and went back to get a masters? -INTJ

Ya we dont really like that stuff.. This guy is ill infomed

​@@DiamanteDea He's not ill-informed, as these are very common interests for this type. But we're all individuals, and not everyone fits the stereotypes of their type.

For what it's worth; I'm studying to be an architectural historian. Not sure which direction within this field I want to take, but it's different from what is usually mentioned. I do like STEM fields, but prefer reading about them rather than doing stem research myself.

Loved math but never liked the real world application of it. Just loved how it felt like a puzzle to figure out. Could not imagine pursuing any of those you listed as a career tho for sure haha

I couldn't agree more. Very well said.

Can I ask you what was your career and which switch you took?

Yooo I'm here haha, studied biomedical eng.✌🏽 But i dont like it😅 want to have sth artsy probably music and writing as a side job

INFP plant breeder here, so doctorate in Agriculture science. Isn't Ne about possibilities? Plus science is just so interesting.

Yes, science is actually a fairly common career direction for INFPs despite the stereotypes.

I'm currently studying Chemistry/Environmental science! But I've got plans for a second degree after because I don't like the idea of having to work in the same field for the rest of my life. (I'm only like 90% sure I'm an INFP tho)

I'm an INFP and I hate being a housewife:') Maybe hate is a strong word but it doesn't come naturally to me

@@katielarsen2630 hopefully you'll find something more enjoyable soon!

I want to be a teacher and when I have children a housewife! Infp as well.

The problem with that is society currently doesn't support raising children properly. Housespouseing leaves you potentially vuleranable if your spouse dies/gets sick or the relationship ends. Have you considered being a nanny? A good training programme gives you paperwork for your resume, a career that can give you free world travel, and if you do become a housespouse you have career experience.

Bro sameee. I’m like can I skip the whole career thing and just be a mom 😂 never mind the fact that I first need a husband

anyone with introvert in them shouldn't xD

I'm INTJ. I've studied and learned to do motivational speaking. I'm fucking great at it.

uh why not? (inxj)

I’m an INTJ and can do very well giving a talk to a large group when it’s not a common occurrence. It’s the every day office talk/social environment and working with 200+ people in an open-floor office that stresses me out.

I am good at it too but it stresses me out really bad

Please do! I’m an ENFJ who switched to social work and I LOVE IT!

It can take a while - and a lot of exploration and experimentation - for people like INFPs and ENFPs to figure out what they're supposed to do. At least things like writing and communications are pretty open-ended and allow you to work in a wide range of fields and with a wide range of subject matter.

And then there's all the crazy stuff Frank would say in his scetches he did as an ENFP in order to exaggerate extremely, but which I actually did

I think you'll like it more once you get past the monotonous study period and actually get to use the language! ♥️♥️

I wanted to be a teacher too from the time I started school until I was one. Reality check on teaching physics though is that not many people actually want to learn Physics that you have to teach which can really drain you especially when you realize that Universities are businesses that they just want you to pass the students so they can get money. Then there is the whole publish or perish mindset some places may have, but you can get hired by a school that doesnt require it. Lots to learn about the reality of the situation. I could go on and on. Then there is the gruelling leveling up from Adjunct professor to Tenure. Things may have changed as all this was before STEM. Certainly the level of people telling a woman "You can't do Physics pick another Library science topic" and having o tell them "No" has changed. I had to deal with telling them "No I am researching physics!" in the second grade all the way up to my last library science class in college. Crazy. No matter what though, you will always have a job somewhere with something if you do physics. So Go for it! IT IS AMAZING and So FUN!
