    The Non-Categorizable-INFJ

    A lot of INFJ's feel helpless because they realize how limited the corporate world is. It doesn't give them room to express themselves fully, even though there are some careers that seem to fit better than others. And it's not as if all corporate jobs are evil; however the INFJ seems to pick up...

    Majors?

    Obviously education and career choice aren't based solely on MBTI type, lol, but I am curious what subjectively your favorite/recommended college majors would be for INFJ and ENFP in particular, or for various types and functions in general. I know I could google this (have in the past) and see...

    [INFJ] Which of these subjects suits me better as an INFJ?

    Hello. I'm in a pickle. I have been studying law for two years and I do not like it. It feels like it's slowly munching away at my soul, one bite at a time. On the other hand, I think I would like being a lawyer and doing something meaningful like helping families and underdogs and whatnot...

    INFJ AND BUSINESS: can these two work together?

    Hey! :grinning: So I've been wondering how well INFJ personality and the role of a business owner mix together? Do infj's strive for such a thing, or is it something that they naturally shy away from? Personally I've tried freelancing and dropshipping so I loved the freedom aspect of...

    How do you handle constructive criticism?

    A few questions here: How do you handle constructive criticism from a higher up or from a colleague? Do you get stressed easily at work? On a team, are you the Positive Pat or Negative Nelly? Are you happy in your career choice?

    Career ideas?

    I found out I was an INFJ fairly recently and was hoping for advice regarding careers. I love planning, organizing, animals and listening to people, so my top job options were a vet tech, counselor, or event planner. The thing is, I have anxiety and don't think I would be allowed to become a...

    The time has come for me to resign from my job. I've been with the company for almost 6 years and have contributed a lot of good quality work, but there are no promotion opportunities for me.

    Authority and Your Expectations

    If you work for someone, do you find that they do/don't measure up to your idea of what a good authority figure should be? Do you accept their directives, when you don't agree, without arguing or do you state your mind? What qualities do you look for in a boss/leader?
