Strength isn't a label. It's a testable hypothesis.
This tool doesn't hand you a personality type. It weighs what you can do, the proof behind it, and the energy it gives you — then points you at roles, industries and a small real-world experiment to confirm it.
- 1
Rate what you've actually done
Sixteen questions, one simple 1–5 scale for Capability, Evidence and Energy. When unsure, pick the lower number.
- 2
Add real evidence
Three genuine examples with a result, a metric and an observer make your result trustworthy instead of wishful.
- 3
See your persona & blend
Your top persona plus a top-3 blend, with confidence rising as evidence accumulates.
- 4
Run a 7-day experiment
A realistic task that proves the strength in the world — and builds portfolio proof.
Quick Persona Quiz
Rate what you have actually done. Each row uses the same 1–5 scale: Capability (how well), Evidence (what backs it up), Energy (how it feels). Can't name a real example? Keep Evidence at 1–2.
Evidence Log
Real examples are what turn a quiz guess into a defensible career hypothesis. Aim for at least 3. Strong evidence has: a real task, your personal action, a result, a metric or proof, an observer, and a pattern repeated over time.

Evidence score = 0.35·perf + 0.30·proof + 0.20·energy + 0.15·learning.

Interpretation rule: treat the persona as a career hypothesis. Trust it most when quiz pattern, repeated evidence, external feedback, energy, and market relevance point in the same direction.
The eight career-strength personas
Each is a custom, research-informed hypothesis about how your strengths create value at work — not a validated personality type. Use evidence and experiments to confirm, combine or adjust.
Research basis & attribution
This tool is research-informed, not a validated psychometric assessment. The principles below come from peer-reviewed research and the O*NET program. The eight persona names, quiz wording, score weights, confidence labels and role/industry examples were created for this workbook and have not been independently validated.
