Have you ever taken a personality test? Are you a Protagonist or Virtuoso? Does it shape how you act?


This week, Ethan and Yvonne discuss personality tests!


From their use in employability and recruitment to the social implications of the results, Yvonne and Ethan talk about their feelings towards these tests. They touch upon toxicity, the potential for recruitment benefits as well as discrimination, and the impact of being labelled. Yvonne brings her unique perspective as someone who uses them at work, while Ethan tries to convince people to take a philosophical health check.
