“It’s a good place for students to get ideas,” says Amy Armstrong, director of career services here at Bucks.

When asked how many people take the quiz if any, Armstrong said, “Yes they do use it, but there isn’t a way of monitoring it.”

Secondly there is investigative which is for people who like to research things.

The fifth type of personality type is enterprising which is being able to persuade others. These people may go into the fields of politics or sales.
Sixth there is conventional which is for people who like to keep things organized and very clear.
