The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® has helped millions of people get a better sense of where they might fit in the world of work. Unfortunately, it’s still mistakenly used to predict job performance, even during interviews. No career assessment will give a full and accurate picture of specific careers or work environments that you should pursue, and it’s not a guarantee for choosing who to hire. The Myers-Briggs CAN be used to help a candidate understand the challenges of the role, and integrate more effectively into the team or work environment. It can also help the organization diversify. As a job seeker – knowing your Myers-Briggs type can help you understand your strengths and weaknesses and how to successfully market yourself during the interview.

ENTPs and ENFPs. Both are friendly, fun, creative, and spontaneous. However, one prioritizes facts and logic while the other prioritizes emotional connections. When they're working – or living - together effectively, both are adaptable and encouraging, bringing a zest of life and a clever new idea wherever they go. And they certainly won't be bored!
Tune in to hear more about the joys and challenges of the ENTP and ENFP pairing.

Today's podcast is going to be a fun, lighthearted one:
Myers-Briggs personality types and zodiac signs. Specifically, is there any correlation between the two?

Definitions of zodiac signs are being taken from a compilation of sources – namely Astrology dot com, Café Astro, and Linda Goodman's Sun Signs. Please note that these are just my opinions, and this is nothing more than a fun comparison.
