About This Quiz

We've all done it, imagined how our favorite fictional characters would handle a day in a hoity-toity office. We can bet that any of the characters from "Dragon Ball Z" would probably lose their tempers and end up speaking to HR on several occasions. But if we're to bet a cast who could navigate the corporate American skies, it would be the crew from the Star Wars Trilogy. But how would a typical HR department prepare their coworkers for their intense personalities?

In the situation above, it is more likely than not that the HR Department had ordered a Meyers-Briggs test to see if they would be a good fit for the organization. Divided into 16 types, this test can decipher almost all of the personalities across the universe. Now imagine if the situation above was with characters from the Star Wars universe. What do you think Luke Skywalker's personality dossier would say? "Passionate about robotics, this young man has a lot to prove. Watch out for that rebellious streak, he could cause trouble"?

We invite you to put aside that nasty spreadsheet that has no answers and use the Force to see what Star Wars character you are according to your Myers-Briggs type.
