Type Guesser (Parent) Test

Finding out the type of each colleague can be a fun way to make a more streamlined workplace. However, sometimes you can’t just ask a colleague to take our test. Thus, we Parents can be difficult at the best of times, but sometimes you feel like you want a bit more of a view into why they make the decisions they do. If you want to figure out what type your parent is, but for some reason or another you can’t ask them directly to take the test, this short tool will help you make an estimation.

We have written a short list of common situations to get into with a parent. You have likely been in some of these citations (or similar ones!) yourself, so you should be able to answer what your parents' response is likely to be. Try to be as truthful as possible when you answer, and choose the option that we described that your parent is most likely to behave as.

If you haven’t been in a situation like the one described, then try to imagine yourself in the thick of it. How would your parent react? Which one of the available options is most likely the avenue of action they would take?have developed a short tool to help you to make an educated guess without their input.

This test consists of several different scenarios. If you and your colleague have been through similar situations, try to remember how they behaved, and answer accordingly. Otherwise, do your best to imagine how your colleague would likely react, and tell us as truthfully as possible.

The type guesser will then give you the most likely workplace type of your colleague, and even give you a metric for how confident it is in this conclusion. Neat, right? :)
