Personal Strengths / Career Needs
In Terms of Enterprising vs. Support Role Possibilities
People see you as being occasionally assertive, determined and goal-oriented within well-defined situations. More often, you appear to be generally accepting, agreeable, considerate, mild-mannered and cautious in any less-clearly-defined work or personal situations. Given a requirement or objective and a plan of how to reach the objective, you can be depended upon to work diligently to achieve the stated goals. Your talents probably find their best use in the service or support aspects of a company.
In Terms of Your Style & Strength of Various Motivations
You can be described as being motivated both by a genuine concern for the well-being of others and by the opportunity to achieve an excellent standard of income for yourself through applying your talents and effort to achieving very demanding goals. To achieve both your people-oriented goals and your personal goals, you may become somewhat hard-driving, eager, active and, if delayed, occasionally impatient. There is a balance in your motivational pattern between an orientation toward people or service considerations and toward bettering your own life. This means that you will want to assess each step in your career path in terms of its social merit, as well as its payoff to you. If either element is seriously limited in a job, you may have difficulty in committing yourself completely to it.
In Terms of Your Independence vs. Your Need to Be in the Team
You can be described as cooperative, obliging, efficient and conscientious. You can function effectively in a group that is well-organized, but allows you leeway for individual initiative. You accept early supervision along with training, but expect less supervision after gaining the experience.
In Terms of Your Orientation Toward the “People” Side of Business
You can be described as somewhat sociable, enthusiastic, cheerful, lively and entertaining. While valuing social interactions, you may be somewhat reserved in your initial contacts with new people. You achieve goals through personal relationships developed over a longer period of time.
In Terms of Your Orientation Toward Technical & Practical Concerns
You can be described as somewhat logical, reflective, analytical, factual and practical. Intellectual challenges, when offered without any obvious practical utility, would not appeal to you as strongly as would other kinds of challenge and opportunity. Ideas and concepts that are of solid practical use would be of more interest to you.

What To Seek / What To Avoid In Jobs
What Should You Look for In a Job/Career that Matches You Best?
Look for eventual employment with an organization that has an established work objective and detailed work plan; preferably one that uses your special talents in an ongoing service or support role, rather than in a short-term, repeating and pressured goal-attainment requirement.
Look for career opportunities that combine work of genuine social value with an equally genuine opportunity to take on demanding and challenging tasks for which you will receive recognition and good financial compensation.
You should try to find a job that combines being a team player with opportunities to be independent, as you would find it both interesting and profitable to occasionally exercise your own initiative.
You should look for employment that calls for an average amount of “people” contact and a limited number of new contacts with people you don't know. However, some of your job satisfaction would be found in the interaction with people at work.
Look for employment that has a limited amount of analytical, technical and discovery learning to it. There are other challenges and rewards in the work environment that are more appealing to you. When you discover these, target them as ideal job requirements/opportunities.

What To Seek / What To Avoid In Jobs
What Should You Avoid in Jobs/Careers that Don't Match You?
Avoid working in an environment that requires you to be responsible for your own work planning and/or that requires you to repeatedly attain high-pressure goals. Unstructured or apparently disorganized work environments would not be able to employ your talents to the best degree.
Avoid jobs that you feel do not have any real human merit in them. Also avoid positions in which everyone is treated alike, regardless of their effort and performance. You can use your talents best where both the “people” element and the challenge element are present.
You should avoid a position in which you will always be a minor or relatively unimportant member of a work group. Avoid positions in which the job structure is totally and rigorously controlling of the workers.
You should avoid a position where you are expected to perform an exclusively public relations role.
Avoid jobs that are particularly detail-oriented. Jobs that require you to quickly learn and apply new technologies or vast amounts of new information won't be particularly satisfying.
