Bonus: HBO hits hard with “Persona: The Dark Truth Behind Personality Tests” (HBO Max)
People have been analyzing their personality tests since the dawn of time. Long before the invention of computers, folks were pointing at the stars and claiming your birth date impacted the person you’d grow up to be.
More recently, we’ve seen the emergence of personality tests that claim to be more scientific. Tons of businesses ask their employees to take the Myers-Briggs test, which puts you into one of 16 broad categories. For example, a person who gets INFJ is called an “Advocate,” which indicates to upper management that this job candidate is a great team player and a leader.
But how reliable are these tests? This question lies at the heart of HBO Max’s newest documentary. Here’s the trailer.
