About This Quiz

When it comes to jobs, finding the perfect one can be incredibly tricky. While there are more obvious careers that everyone thinks of, just because something is obvious doesn't mean it is right for you. People often think of careers in teaching and medicine, because many of us grew up surrounded by both, but they are actually incredibly difficult fields that are not meant for everyone. Not all people can handle large groups of children day in and day out, or be ready to perform heart surgery in a flash.   

Every person is different, which means that there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to finding the best or the worst kinds of jobs. After all, while some people might find the danger of being a fireman utterly terrifying, others thrive in high-stakes situations and work brilliantly under pressure. While some people might find a desk job incredibly boring, others might find the routine and structure of a nine-to-five comforting and motivating.

Tell us all about yourself, and we will pick the absolute worst kind of job for your personality, lifestyle and goals. Take this quiz if you want to know what career traps to avoid on your job journey.
