Conclusively, withal visually perceived as a content theory, argue vocation choice a role of cognation between personality type and occupational environment. Based on the findings of Hollands theory he distinguish six personality types matching with six occupational environments. Holland point out that people seek environments where they can express characteristics of their personality leading to preferences. However, interests and competencies combined constituted personal disposition according to which the person perceive, think and act In short, Holland’s theory identifies corresponding work environments matching the six personality types As well as preferences, aversions and disposions (Holland, 1985). The six personality types and corresponding
work environments are as follows. Firstly, realistic type, shy, conformist, honest, genuine, masculine, natural, stable, persistent, uninvolved, practical, careful and demonstrate a lack of insight (Schreuder & Theron, 1997, p. 34). Secondly, investigative type, analytical, cautious, critical, introspective, independent, intellectual, passive, rational, methodical, reserved and unassuming. Thirdly, artistic type, complex, emotional, disorderly, feminine, imaginative, idealistic, impractical, impulsive, introspective, independent, intuitive, nonconformist, and original (Schreuder & Theron, 1997, p. 35). Fourthly, social type, friendly, generous, co-operative, persuasive, idealistic, kind, tactful, understanding, sociable, feminine, helpful and shows insight. Five, enterprising type, adventurous, acquisitive, ambitious, dependent, domineering, exhibitionist, impulsive, optimistic, energetic, and self-confident pleasure seeking. Finally, conventional type, conformist, defensive, conscientious, efficient, inflexible, inhibited, orderly, practical, persistent and lacks imagination (Schreuder & Theron, 1997, p. 36). Considering Hollands view on a personality pattern with relathionships of the types based on four constructs congruence, consistancy, differentiation and identity (Schreuder & Theron, 1997, p. 36-38). Similar, the Enneagram types with four other types noticeably affecting a person’s core personality (Riso & Hudson, 2000) leads to dedicating chapter 3 to exploring Holland’s theory of vocational personalities and work environments.

Personality is defined as a person's differences to another in regards to their patterns of behavior, thinking, and emotional responses (American Psychological Association). The Big Five Personality Traits are Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism, or OCEAN for short. Openness is essentially correlated to exploring new things. The people that have high levels of this trait are generally more apt to do things like try different types of food, be more creative, and have the ability to tackle challenging problems. People who are low on this trait generally have a dislike for change, tend to not enjoy trying new things, and are generally more traditional in a sense..
The “Big Five” personality traits and the tests that show you what where on the scale of each of the five traits you fit are concepts that were introduce to me actually in high school.

INFJs are the least common amongst the Myers-Briggs personality types. Because of this and their multifaceted nature, they are often the most misunderstood. As an INFJ, I intend to clarify some of the more complex aspects of this personality, specifically in the business environment. Through self-awareness, personality tests and various other research; I have found that INFJ’s struggle with certain behavioral paradoxes. One example of this is the strong aversion to large groups of people while portraying a seemingly outgoing, but caring interest in someone’s life. This report provides a brief insight into the INFJ worldview, as well as some new revelations about how to be a better employee through acceptance and conversationVery good

Personality Theories The Big Five Approach plays a major role in the process of understanding and analyzing a child’s outcome, as well as any adjustment issues that may occur during a child’s development. Along with these accomplishments, the Big Five approach has proven to be able to cover children, adolescents, and adults under one spectrum (Van den Akker et al., 2013). The article, “The development of personality extremity from childhood to adolescence: relations to internalizing and externalizing problems” provides an intense amount of information on personality theories and goes into depth about how personalities develop and how to distinguish between them as well. This study not only incorporated the study of personality extremity throughout childhood and adolescence, but the issues between personality extremities and personality adjustments as well (Van den Akker et al., 2013).
Holland’s theory of vocational personalities and work environments is the premier structural theory behind modern counseling. His theory structural theory is centered around the basic belief that people will seek out careers that offer environments that are compatible with their interest, likes and dislikes. This basic premise is the foundation for Holland’s globally accepted vocational personality and work environment theory. This structural theory can be explained by four general statements. First, in today’s society, generally most people will fall into one of Holland’s six category types. These types are defined as Realistic, Intellectual, Social, Conventional, Enterprising and Artistic. Secondly, there are six kinds of environments that exists in modern society (Holland, 1966). These environments are also defined as Realistic, Intellectual, Social, Conventional, Enterprising and Artistic. Next people will search for the environment and vocation that allows them to best use there skills and talents, to express their attitudes and values, to take on problems and roles they like and avoid the ones that they dislike (Gottfredson, 1981). Finally a persons behavior is determined by the interaction of his personality pattern and his environment. Holland’s theory allows counseling to define, explain and predict personality types and their compatibility with the work environment. Holland’s theory on the surface may seem simple, but the interest in his theory are useful and can indicate much more than just the types of work a person will enjoy. The many components of abilities and personalities are contained within a persons interest profile.
In the study of psychology there are four major theories of personality. They are Social Cognitive, Psychoanalytic, Humanistic, and Behavioral. Of course, they are all different and portray different types of behavioral patterns. Personality studies have been founded on the perception that all people are alike in some ways, but can be different in other ways. I have placed the four personality theories where I think they belong on the nature versus nurture continuum.
The Big Five Theory is a theory that we have 5 traits that make up our personality, them being Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism and Openness to Experience. The Big Five Theory is an interesting and intelligent take on personality, but raises some questions. What research findings led to the decision of the 5 traits of personality that make up the Big Five? Five traits is a minimal amount to explain personality, but there is reasoning behind why only five make up this theory. Five traits were hand selected for the Big Five. But is there really in fact five traits that make up this theory? Another question that raises some thought is Can the Big Five Theory accurately predict one’s personality? There are many theories

The first step of career management process is self-assessment. Self-assessment is refers to the employees using some information that help them to decide which career they really interested to pursue, ability, skills, and behavioural tendencies.

After done with the exercises, career counsellors usually used to assist the employee in their self-assessment process and also provide explanation about their result of psychology tests. Then the employees assess their current skills and abilities and also capabilities they are lacking with some informa...
