So this morning I landed a very promising second interview with a company I’d like to work for. During the course of the conversation, the employer mentioned that before the next interview, they would like me to do one of those personality profile tests online. They told me the URL which I prompty put into my iphone, then managed to improperly save and lose the address. I’d feel pretty dumb calling back because I think I confirmed the address atleast three times, so I was hoping my fellow dopers might be able to save me a great deal of embarassment in the event that someone is familiar with a pay-per-use (i think) personality profile site that starts with K and is about five to seven letters. I don’t know anything else about the site other than that one fills out a questionaire and the site spits back results (for a fee). So do anyone happen to know of a site that fits this description?

Many Thanks.

Did a quick google on corporate personality profile tests and the first hit was to a site with a Keirsey Temperment Sorter II (Personality Instrument, wunka?) That sound familiar?

If all else fails, tell them your phone was stolen before you got home. :eek:

Whoops, never heard of that one. Well, at least you found it, right? Good luck with the rest of the interview process.
