    Haha I was just messing with you since I know you've been pretty passionate about Rutgers since getting the job. Never hurts to go after a better opportunity. I have a pretty decent job now that I like doesn't mean I'm not looking for something better.

    Do you have to move to Japan for the job as well?

    Also just looked up your company and the company I work for purchases products from them haha.

    xxxxxx is known as one of the best "pay" companies in Japan. The average annual wage for all full-time employees (average age: 31.9 years old) in FY2006 was JPY13,860,000 (US$117,348 as of March 2007).[SUP][[/SUP]

    xxxxxx is a stupid name for a company. I wouldn't want to work for them if they required both a personality test and had a dumb name.

    Also, if you're going to copy and paste a Wiki article, you might as well post the source.

    Just a note to the OP. The figures quoted are not accomplished by working 40 hour weeks.

    here is an example of the briggs-myers test: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp
    Like I said, there are no really right or wrong answers. Just answer what the employer would want you to. For example: You trust reason rather than feelings. Even though your answer could be no, you obviously answer yes.

    I know this isnt the Caliper test, but seeing that they are both personality tests, I would expect many of the same type of questions.

    Figured you knew, but there are actually people out there who don't get that companies who pay more than average don't do it out of kindness. Good luck with it.

    There's a technical term for those people and it is "fucking retarded".

    ...I think Justin took one of those types of tests & the results came back that he would be an under-achiever!

    Boy were they ever wrong, look at this empire he's built from nothing!
