Personality-Job Fit Theory

Personality-job fit theory is a way of saying that people’s personalities should match the type of job they do. It means that people are more likely to be successful and happy in a job if it fits their personality. For example, if someone is shy, they might be better off in a job that doesn't involve a lot of socializing. Or if someone is outgoing, they might do better in a job that involves talking to lots of people.
