You are a Technician
Practical, Hands-on, Independent
Ultra rare: 0.7% of users

Technicians are very detail-oriented people with a knack for body-oriented tasks. They prefer structure and order over ambiguity. They are very practical in their work and like a clear set of guidelines when setting out to complete tasks. Technicians feel their best when they produce tangible results that meet their high standards.

Things they're good at:
Technicians are methodical, practical, and organized, and like physical and tactile activities. Technicians are pragmatic people with an appreciation for goal-oriented projects where they can keep track of their progress. A Technician’s work tends to be very well-organized and consistent, as they don’t mind repetitive tasks when it is part of a big project. They prefer to have a routine and they like to follow clearly defined rules and keep track of the details.

Things they can watch out for:
While Technicians’ preference for methodical approaches and real-world projects gives them a very strong work ethic, they can sometimes have trouble when it comes to approaching solutions more holistically. It can be hard for Technicians to rely on their instincts or intuition since they are so action-oriented. People who see the big picture can help Technician see a task or project as a whole rather than as a series of parts.

THE SCIENCE
A Conventional person is detail oriented and methodical, feeling most at ease in structured environments where they feel in control. A Realistic person feels most comfortable in the physical world, where they can perform hands-on work on a project with a tangible goal.

You are Unhibited
Unhibited people are spontaneous and unpredictable
Rare - 20% of users

Highly impulsive people tend to have tendency to act on a whim. They are okay taking action without much forethought or deliberation, in search of perceived short term gain. Research shows that impulsive people tend to discount delayed or long term benefits. For this reason, impulsive people tend to not be the best with money, however, they are a good moderating force on their opposites - people who are too measured.
Modest people are humble and unassuming.
Rare - 20% of users

Modest people do not want to the center of attention. Generally speaking, they see people as equals, neither thinking of themselves as better than others or others as better than themselves. While modesty is a well-respected quality in people, in the workplace it can be perceived as incompetence. It is important for modest people to work in environments that monitor and reward real output instead of self endorsement or politics.
Maximizing people are optimizing and uncompromizing.
Rare - 20% of users

Maximizing people want the best. They are not happy to settle for something good enough when there may have been something better. They are often perfectionists and are unable to complete a task unless it is to the best of their ability. Decisions or purchases, no matter how small, demand a lot of attention and research from them - and they often think the grass is greener on the other side regardless of what decisions they make. Research shows that maximizers often struggle with what is called the "paradox of choice." That is, they are often stunted by the volume of choices available to them, and are actually served better by making quick, suboptimal decisions sometimes.
