Path101 Launches Alpha; Personality Test is First Application

Coming soon NY-based career service Path101 launched an alpha earlier this week. Their first application open to the public is a personality quiz which will help you learn more about yourself.

Path101 CEO Charlie O’Donnell has posted the results of his personality quiz. He’s also posted some interesting dropoff data - that is, when do people quit taking the quiz.

Charlie explains how the quiz works, "The quiz works based off of other people’s data.  When you take it, we’ll match your personality to others in the system and tell you what kinds of careers they’re in.  The more people we have, the better and more specific the recommendations."

What would be interesting is to see this data presented in a widget - it might help us to interact with each other differently. By understanding what things we like and don’t like, people who want to interact with us would have more data on the best way to get through. My team went through an exercise like this years ago and it helped us all to interact better as a team.

Charlie is also the founder of the nextNY group. Here’s Charlie explaining how the nextNY group works:
