I remember a friend of mine got denied a job because the employers made him do a Meyers Briggs test and apparently they thought his personality type wouldn't mesh
in Subnautica: Below Zero, you can find employee/citizen personnel files of the people who were working at the arctic base, and integrated into their reviews are the Big Five Personality Traits. Alterra is a giant corporation that they work for and are citizens of, since it's big enough to be considered a "transgov" (which should be used for something cooler than 'space Amazon is a sovereign nation') under the galactic colonial charter.
Thing is, afaik that's the closest one there is to one that's actually got some utility. People tend to test pretty consistently on it even with different tests and testers. Probably still mostly bullshit though.
bruh, that's the one cambridge analytica used. it is not only legitimate, it has seen real world applications and has been highly effective in those applications.
I've developed another test as an alternative to Big Five. It's called the Boat Guy Test and it's one question, "Are you a boat guy?" and studies have shown that people who answer yes are more likely to respond to ads about boats, and we can also predict who will answer yes based on their social media profiles. Since this test is useful for real world applications that means it's valid as a personality test :galaxy-brain:
bond with him by sharing the cool history of mbti and other similar personality tests

so much for neoliberal tolerance and respect for the individual

We do love our beautiful boaters
Really? Well, damn, maybe interstellar gigacorporations will be using it centuries down the line.
Four of the "Big Five" are literally the same as the MBTI categories with the names changed slightly. It's the same thing with different branding.
Both of them are 100% fine to be into casually and 100% should never be used professionally.
idk a test that claims that being "rational" and "compassionate" are separate personality traits sounds a bit too fucked to be of any real use
