Pages 193-203 | Published online: 27 Mar 2012
 

ABSTRACT

The personality type of 116 finalist education students at the University of Pretoria was assessed over a two-year period, using the Jung Personality Questionnaire (JPQ). The main goal of this article is to establish the natural preferences of these students and to help them understand how their preferences relate to their career exploration. Students' type preferences and their specified career type according to typology literature are indicated. Students' typology was significantly that of EFNP (Extrovert, Feeling, Intuition, Perceiving). The significance of this typology for programme development, career counselling, channeling of students and future job satisfaction is discussed.
