Well, the psychometric test came back with some revealing insights. All of which were fairly accurate but sadly contradicting the sort of jobs I'm being approached for. I think I can safely say I bored to death the chap I was talking to earlier about my results. He thought it was all fantastic - I'm sociable, a team player, a leader, consistent, creative blah blah blah...........and then we had this conversation: -
him: says you don't like confrontation.
me: that would be correct
him: oh....(tails off, this is bad...)
me: I think if a situation ends up being confrontational, then at some point it's been badly handled ..
him: oh I agree. But you don't like confrontation?
me: ?
He's going to liaise with the recruitment consultant. I on the other hand will not be busy holding my breath...
