Personality Styles

My Career Match is based on proven behavioural and psychometric principals.

Employment studies have shown that personality is a contributing factor for career success and the closer the behavioural match between you and the job requirements, the happier, more successful you will be.

Our Personality Styles

There are four basic personality styles:
Drivers    |    Promoters    |    Supporters    |    Analysers

When blended together in varying percentages these four personality styles make us who we are. Most people are a combination of two styles. The first style is your 'Dominant Style', this is the one that governs how you behave most of the time. The second is your 'Back Up' style, it's like your co-pilot and kicks in when there's a need for balance.
