Congratulations! You are the Generator. Outgoing, energetic, and caring, you bring an enthusiastic approach to everything that you do. You can strike up a conversation with almost anyone, and you feel most alive when you’re connecting with people. In your spare time, we’ll probably find you seeking out new experiences, throwing a party, or travelling the world.
Because of your outgoing nature and inclination to work with others, you’re drawn toward jobs that involve selling or providing services. If you’re looking for some career inspiration, some good places to start are in the business, sales, tourism, retail or hospitality sectors.
You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.
