Personality test

[Togakure]

Good ol' Keirsey/Meyer's-Briggs kind of stuff. Took these a lot prior to about ten years ago.

Currently INFJ, 22 52 52 56. In the past F would lean towards T; J would lean towards P. So I look at INTJ, INFP, and INTP. Usually I rate INFJ or INFP though.

INFJ: "Idealist - portrait of a counselor", Literature/write, humanities, web design, philosophy, archaeology, religious education (gah!), psychology, counseling.

Profile: INFJ
Revision: 3.1

Beneath the quiet exterior, INFJs hold deep convictions about the weightier matters of life. Those who are activists -- INFJs gravitate toward such a role -- are there for the cause, not for personal glory or political power.

INFJs are champions of the oppressed and downtrodden. They often are found in the wake of an emergency, rescuing those who are in acute distress. INFJs may fantasize about getting revenge on those who victimize the defenseless. The concept of 'poetic justice' is appealing to the INFJ.

"There's something rotten in Denmark." Accurately suspicious about others' motives, INFJs are not easily led. These are the people that you can rarely fool any of the time. Though affable and sympathetic to most, INFJs are selective about their friends. Such a friendship is a symbiotic bond that transcends mere words.

INFJs have a knack for fluency in language and facility in communication. In addition, nonverbal sensitivity enables the INFJ to know and be known by others intimately.

Writing, counseling, public service and even politics are areas where INFJs frequently find their niche."

I have found these most useful with NLP at work. When a team takes this kind of thing and everyone shares their rating, it can sometimes help in understanding where someone is coming from, and how best to interact with them to get favorable results. But it's all pretty nebulous.
