Ideal Qualities

Work activities, rather physical: You prefer your work to be physical in nature, with only some mental activity required. You should consider looking for jobs that will require you to move around a lot and exert physical effort. Some examples would include jobs where you are on call, like medicine and technical work, teaching, and jobs involving manual labor like construction and agriculture.

Style of Working, rather applying: You often prefer to implement given solutions and plans somebody made, even though you can also be creative when needed. You should consider looking for jobs that are fairly routine and repetitive. Some examples can be found in health sector, hospitality or control and administration for example.

Information Processing, only global: You prefer to look at how everything fits within the larger operation and to see how every part affects each other. You should consider jobs where you need to see how everything affects what you are doing. Some examples would include running a business and offering advice to solve problems.

Flexibility, very low: You prefer to have a fixed work routine with little or no change every day. You should consider looking for jobs where you are required to go to an office at a specific time each working day. Some examples would include desk jobs and running a shop.

Value orientation, rather materialistic: You believe that your work is mostly for material gain, with only some importance attached to the meaning behind it. You should consider looking for jobs that promise a return on your time investment. Some examples would include corporate jobs and running a business.

Pursuit of Success, low: Having a personal life is important to you. You don’t want your social and family relationships to suffer from dedicating time to your work. You should consider looking for jobs that will not interfere with your private life. Avoid jobs which require you to dedicate a lot of your free time to your work

Motivation to Create, low: You prefer to implement already existing ideas rather than come up with your own ways of doing things.

Avoid jobs where you have to think of your own ways of doing things.

Team oriented, very low: You are independent and work best on your own. It is difficult for you to work with others and to conform your way of working to theirs but on the other hand you do not feel odd if you have to work on your own.
