I keep getting sucked into personality tests. I think it is to back me up on my choices for my job search.
- Customer Success Manager
- SDR/BDR Manager
- Sales or Rev Ops
Thankfully, the tests are backing me up! I really enjoy taking these every few years to see if I see any changes in myself! I feel like you can learn a lot from these. It helps you grow as a person and shines on the things you need to work on. I have only seen changes for the better.
I loved this one from Square Peg. It was very insightful and did not take long to complete. Here are my results!
Next I did DISC. I did it 3 times with different test makers. I am definitely an “I”(Influence, in the DISC which again makes complete sense. They also provided me some key behavioral insights
“While you may sometimes tend toward surface analysis, you also display a very keen awareness of important details. This may come as a surprise to others, as they might assume that you only attend to the “big picture” items. You surprise them by contributing information about small details that may impact the project. This shows that, in spite of your easy-going style, you also do your homework.
You have a strong determination toward accomplishing your own agenda and will work to motivate others to that end. You have the ability to promote your own ideas assertively to others, without your message being perceived as a “hard sell.” This comes from your sense of confidence, your verbal skills, and your spontaneous flexibility, and can be of enormous value in negotiations with others.
You show a strong ability to meet others easily and demonstrate social poise in small or large group situations. This is an important strength, and one that the team and the organization should amplify for you. You can maximize this ability by choosing assignments and situations that will illuminate this strength.
You have the ability to handle pressing problems in a casual manner. This is a strength to the team, especially when pressure is running high. You show the ability to turn a phrase or make a quip that eases some of the tension, allowing the team to re-focus on the problem, perhaps in a new way. Likewise, you have the ability to think quickly on your feet, and to express yourself in a verbally fluent way.
You tend to be an easy person to be around, unlikely to deliberately antagonize others. This trait comes from your sincere interest in others, your optimism, and your patience in working with others. As a result, you may be sought after for a variety of committees and working teams. You’ll make sure that the job gets done, and that people are enjoying what they’re doing”
I will say that is pretty spot on. I feel good about that!
Have you ever taken a personality test and if yes what did you get??
