I took this personality test to know my profile and I laughed when I saw it.
Work-wise, I now know why I was chosen to take my current job role and why I excelled in it.
It was the Sentinel Role that really amused me. My current job is somewhat like audit and compliance and considered the 2nd line of defense of our company. Considering that I'm an assertive defender, I think I really have found my calling.
I got a kick out of this paragraph though:
In all of their relationships, Sentinels want to make contributions. This attitude informs how they treat not only their nearest and dearest but also their acquaintances, neighbors, and coworkers. These aren’t the personality types who neglect their responsibilities or leave the office kitchen a mess – in fact, they’re often the types who quietly clean up other people’s messes, both literal and metaphorical.
I do this often--cleaning up other people's messes. It's a job that I actually enjoy and find a sense of accomplishment when I managed to have it done. And this one is true as well.
Of course, Sentinels wouldn’t mind being recognized for the ways they help others, but these personalities rarely demand attention. Instead, they work behind the scenes to make everyone’s lives run as smoothly as possible, even if that means taking on unglamorous tasks like remembering to buy toilet paper or handling their family’s income taxes. They may not be obvious with their feelings, but Sentinels do care and care deeply – you just have to know how to spot it.
Maybe that's why I have always been taken for granted.
