Different parts of astrology. The MBTI stuff replaces the horoscope/personality side of things, whereas chart reading replaces the future readings.
Yeah and the director of the FBI sells guy healing crystals.
That's for white girls on Hinge.
And apparently my team at work. It's more of a curiosity (oh, you're somewhat extroverted? Interesting!), and it gives us a chance to ask questions to get to know a new hire.
If you're making actual decisions based on the MBTI test, then that's on you. But it's kinda fun to compare.
Wow, really? We only do it like a couple weeks after hiring, and you can respectfully refuse. We just do it as a "get to know you" meeting so we can get the team familiar with the new hire.
I'm honestly surprised anyone puts any more weight into it than a conversion starter. Most of my team scores largely the same, yet each of us is very different in terms of work style. In fact, one of our introverts really likes direct collaboration, and one of our extroverts really doesn't. It's really not an indication of anything.
