2. Introduction
Finding the right career is never easy and usually
involves trial-and-error and frustration before
the perfect fit materializes. Although many
people seek jobs that suit their skill set, there is
a strong case that suggests your personality is
just as important in your quest to find
employment.

1. Study your own personality before using it as
a benchmark for what career you should choose,
as many people can be oblivious to their
personality. Be self-analytical and try to
understand your psychological profile; this will
enable you to make an informed choice with
respect to your career path.

2. Take your skills into account.
Sometimes, people of a certain personality type
may specialize in a career which doesn't appear
to suit their personality, for instance a highly
creative, talkative person may be skilled at
accountancy as opposed to acting or art. In this
case, it would be wise to balance personality
with skill and find a career which satisfies both
extremes.

3. Consult career guidance specialists. They will
have an idea of the steps to follow in order to
get your dream job -- and, more
importantly, they'll explain the pitfalls of making
the wrong decision. This would be the right time
to conduct self-assessment tests to further point
you in the right direction.

4. Ensure you don't sacrifice your interests in the
name of personality. Sometimes, hobbies can be
transformed into an enjoyable career, regardless
of personality or skills. In fact, a hobby could be
described as an ideal combination of something
you enjoy doing allied with something at which
you're skilled -- photography, for instance.
