This is outcome by averaging the overlapping categories of six personality tests. Each test was taken in one evening on a weekend night. The following tests were taken: 1) HumanMetrics - Jung's Typology test, 2) Keirsey Temperament SorterĀ®-II, 3) Type A Personality Test (Discovery Health), 4) The Big Personality Test (BBC Lab UK), 5) Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and 6) . iPersonic. All of these have a free version online that you can take yourself. Some of them are long as other are just five minutes of your time. Final calibration is divided into two halves of the brain and then segmented into their smaller fields.
I remember a few years back when I applying for jobs, the list of characteristics potential employers were looking for in their ideal candidate could be memorized to the T. As a freelancer for many years, I would encourage posters to be as specific as possible. As most amateur rookies believe...they are the best and awesome. But just because you can make pretty things doesn't mean your style could apply to any product. Depending on your project ticket and account, your personality constantly has to evolve in order to best suit and please the client and product. This visualization simply mocks this situation. I would never submit this to any employer - sure, it looks awesome...but this is as vague as those characteristics go on those job postings. It still tells you nothing about my design process other than...I play both sides (well, this does mean I can adapt easily in various environments...)
