SUMMARY
HOLLAND CODE
There are many ways to know your two or three type code – you can purchase it from some internet site or you can have it for free. There are some sites, where you can do it so. For example This is very good site, because there are lots of possibilities to answer and if you do not know yourself well, then you can still have an adequate answer, if you check some boxes incorrectly. This test is made by John L. Holland in the 1970s.
There are six main categories of peoples interests and they are (
- Realistic: practical, physical, concrete, hands-on, machine, and tool-oriented;
- Investigative: analytical, intellectual, scientific, explorative, thinker;
- Artistic: creative, original, independent, chaotic, inventive, media, graphics, and text;
- Social: cooperative, supporting, helping, healing/nurturing, teaching;
- Enterprising: competitive environments, leadership, persuading, status;
- Conventional: detail-oriented, organizing, clerical.
There are possibilities that sometimes you can not do your ideal job, so it is possible to convert your main job category type in to other one. For example: Realistic person can do jobs under Investigative and Conventional side, Investigative person can do Realistic and Artistic jobs, Artistic person can do Investigative and Social jobs, Social type of person can do Artistic and Enterprising type of jobs, Enterprising type can perform Social and Conventional way and Conventional type can do Enterprising and Realistic jobs.
When you know your two or three letter types you can seek your jobs out from a good internet site
There are five job zones and descriptions what you can perform best. If you know your type, you can enter it to this site and you can easily seek out jobs what suits to you.
MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE
The theory of multiple intelligences was developed in 1983 by Dr. Howard Gardner, professor of education at Harvard University. This theory is thougth that IQ test is way to limited and people should seek solutions to different types of people to satisfy their wellbeing.
There intelligences are
Bodily-Kinestetic - The ability to use one’s whole body, or parts of the body (like the hands or the mouth), to solve problems or create products. Example jobs (athlethe, actor, dancer, mechanic, performer, physicial education instructor, craftsman, gardener, physical therapist, farmer, carpenter, builder, park ranger, firefighter, paramedic). How to identify it at school - play sports and be physically active; engage in risk taking with their bodies; dance, act, and mime; engage in crafts and play with mechanical objects.
Interpersonal – Sensitivity of one’s own feeling, goal, and naxieties, and the capacity to plan and act in light of one’s own traits. Example jobs (diplomat, leader, manager, politician, clergy, social worker, receptionist, sales representative, counselor, child care, coach). How to identify it at school -
enjoy many friends; lead, share, mediate; build consensus; help others with their problems; be an effective team member.
Intrapersonal intelligence is not particular to specific careers; rather it is a goal for every individuals in a complex modern society, where one has to make consequential decisions for oneself. Example jobs (psychologist, writer, theologian). How to identify it at school - reflect; control own feelings and moods; pursue personal interests and set indiviual agendas; learn through observing and listening; use metacognitive skills.
Linguistic – Sensitivity to the meaning of words, the order among words and the sound, rhythms, inflections and meter of words. Example jobs (Writer, editor, public speaker, politician, preacher, teacher, journalist, broadcaster, actor). How to identify it at school - write stories and essays; tell jokes, stories, puns; use an expanded vocabulary; play word games; use words to create images.
Logical-mathematical – The capacity to conceptualize the logical relations among actions or symbols.Example jobs (scientist, matematician, lawyer, doctor, accountant, bookkeeper, computer programmer, researcher, financial planner). How to identify it at school - work with numbers, figure things out, analyze situations; see how things work; exhibit precision in problem solving; work in situations with clear answers.
Musical – Sensitivity to rhythm, pitch, meter, tone, melody and timbre. May entail the ability to sing, play musical instruments and compose music. Example jobs (musician, singer, conductor, composer, songwriter, music teacher, music director, choir director, record producer). How to identify it at school - listen to and play music; match feelings to music and rhythm; sing and hum; create and replicate tunes.
Naturalistic – The ability to make consequential distinctions in the world of nature. Example jobs (conservationist, gardener, farmer, animal trainer, park ranger, scientist, botanist, zookeeper, geologist, marine biologist, ecologist, veterinarian). How to identify it at school -
spend time outdoors; collect plants, rocks, animals; listen to outdoor sounds; notice relationships in nature; classify flora and fauna.
Spatial – The ability to conceptualize and manipulate large-scale spatial arrays or more local forms of space. Example jobs (architect, artist, chess player, graphic designer, engineer, fashion designer, interior decorator, photographer). How to identify it at school - doodle, paint or draw; create three-dimensional representations; look at and create maps and diagrams; take things apart and put them back together.

MYERS-BRIGGS TYPOLOGY WITH HOLLAND CODE
If we have put together your picture in holland code and multiple intelligence area, then we should consentrate on Myers-Briggs typology.
There are 16 types of different personalities in Myers-Briggs typology. The test is here:
If you took the test, then you see that there are four subcategories, which are: analyst, diplomats, sentinels and explorers. Every subcategory has four types of people.
Analysts – INTJ „Architect“, INTP „Logician“, ENTJ „Commander“, ENTP „Depater“.
Diplomats – INFJ „Advocate“, „INFP“ Mediator, ENFJ „Protagonist“, ENFP „Campaigner“.
Sentinels – ISTJ „Logistican“, ISFJ „Defender“, ESTJ „Executive“, ESFJ „Consul“.
Explorers – ISTP „Virtuoso“, ISFP „Adventurer“, ESTP „Entrepreneur“, ESFP „Entertainer“.
Now if you know your Myers-Briggs type you can add together Holland code test result and Myres-Briggs type. You have to know only the first letter of Holland code test result.
Here are best jobs based on your Holland code and Myers-Briggs letter codes (

ENTJ
Realistic
The Realistic interest domain is associated with Myers-Briggs Thinking, Extraverted Sensing, as well as the Perceiving preference. Hence, STPs are the types most apt to display strong Realistic interests.
As Thinking types, some ENTJs may exhibit some degree of Realistic interests, although this is typically not their strongest interest domain. Nonetheless, the following Realistic careers/majors may be well-suited for ENTJs:
•Computer science, systems analyst, informatics, programmer
•Engineering (all types)
• Urban planning
Investigative
The Investigative domain can also be associated with Myers-Briggs Thinking, as well as Intuition to a certain extent. Therefore, it tends to be among the top domains for ENTJs.
Since ENTJs use Te rather than Ti, they often display strong interests in formal scientific research and development. However, as Extraverts, they are generally ill-suited for perching in a laboratory all day. Most would prefer functioning as chief investigator on scientific projects or heading up their own R & D company.
Medical and pharmaceutical research would also fall under the Investigative domain, as would work as a doctor/physician. All of these are solid careers for ENTJs, since modern medicine has been built around Te models with respect to research, diagnosis, and treatment.
• Actuary
• Astronomy/astronomer
• Biochemistry,biology, chemistry, neuroscience
• Economics /economist
• Financial planning/analyst
•Health/medicalsciences, public health
• Researcher
• Social science research (psychology, sociology, political science)
• Physician, medical doctor: most specialties
• Physics/physicist
Artistic
While ENTJs may appreciate the arts, very few can be considered true artists. True artists are typically N dominants or F types. Thinking, especially Extraverted Thinking, is far too pragmatic a function to be concerned with the divergent, impractical ways of the arts. So while ENTJs may appreciate the arts, artistic work would typically not constitute their ideal career.
Social
The Social interest domain is populated by teachers, caretakers, healthcare workers, clergy, and trainers, most of whom are Myers-Briggs Feeling types. Because of their inferior Fi, some ENTJs may be drawn to certain Social careers. However, as suggested earlier, such careers can end up being a poor fit if ENTJs are regularly forced to rely on their Fi rather than Te. Although there are relatively few good Social career options for ENTJs, becoming a lecturer/college professor is probably a good option.
Enterprising
The Enterprising domain involves the promotion of products, ideas, or services. Typical Enterprising careers include sales and marketing, business and management, law, politics, journalism, insurance, and stock trading. Enterprising individuals often prefer Extraversion.
ENTJs are naturally Enterprising. They are self-starters, good salespersons, and excel with business and management. They can also make excellent attorneys and entrepreneurs.
• Entrepreneur
• Corporate manager, executive
• Law, lawyer, attorney
• Politician
Conventional
Persons withConventionalinterests typically enjoy administrative work. They do well with manipulating data and are organized and detail-oriented. Those in this domain often prefer Sensing, Thinking, and/or Judging.
As TJ types, ENTJs are generally quite competent in attending to the details associated with Conventional work. They often enjoy working with numbers and data. But despite their competence this domain, this is rarely theirpreferredinterest domain.
On the whole, ENTJs display strongest interest in the Investigative and Enterprising domains, preferring careers with IE or EI Holland codes.
