  • 00:00:00
    I've devised a scientifically proven
  • 00:00:03
    system to help you figure out what job
  • 00:00:05
    is right for you. It's based on real
  • 00:00:06
    psychological research on what actually
  • 00:00:08
    makes people stay in jobs and what
  • 00:00:10
    actually keeps people emotionally
  • 00:00:11
    satisfied in their jobs. So, the way
  • 00:00:13
    this works is I'm going to give you a
  • 00:00:15
    system based on five core values:
  • 00:00:18
    autonomy, pay, stability, variety, and
  • 00:00:20
    alignment. Out of these five values,
  • 00:00:22
    you're going to pick your top two values
  • 00:00:24
    which are the most important to you when
  • 00:00:25
    looking for a job. And then you're going
  • 00:00:27
    to pick one throwaway. So, the throwaway
  • 00:00:30
    is basically the value out of those five
  • 00:00:32
    that you care the least about or like
  • 00:00:33
    you give the least of a [ __ ] about when
  • 00:00:34
    you're looking for a job. Obviously, I'm
  • 00:00:35
    going to tell you a little bit more
  • 00:00:37
    about each value so that you can decide
  • 00:00:39
    properly and then afterwards based on
  • 00:00:41
    your unique accommodation. I'll tell you
  • 00:00:43
    what career path is the best match for
  • 00:00:44
    your priorities. Okay, so running
  • 00:00:46
    through the five core values. Number
  • 00:00:48
    one, autonomy. Autonomy is how much
  • 00:00:50
    freedom you have in the job. So, like
  • 00:00:52
    how, when, and where you work. So, if
  • 00:00:54
    autonomy is one of your top values,
  • 00:00:56
    right, it means that you're someone that
  • 00:00:58
    really hates being micromanaged. You
  • 00:01:00
    probably don't like rigid schedules and
  • 00:01:02
    you'd rather be left alone to work
  • 00:01:04
    rather than have to explain anything to
  • 00:01:06
    like aing supervisor. So, basically,
  • 00:01:08
    autonomy is for people that want full
  • 00:01:10
    control over both your time and also
  • 00:01:12
    your task. The second core value is pay.
  • 00:01:14
    So, obviously pay, this is about money,
  • 00:01:16
    right? But I need to explain to you
  • 00:01:17
    specifically what I mean by pay in the
  • 00:01:19
    context here. So pay here is not like
  • 00:01:21
    maximizing the amount of money you make
  • 00:01:23
    in your job. It's more about how your
  • 00:01:26
    income matters to you compared to the
  • 00:01:27
    other values on this list. Okay? So I'll
  • 00:01:29
    give you an example. It's not saying
  • 00:01:31
    that like if you don't pick pay as one
  • 00:01:33
    of your top values that you don't care
  • 00:01:34
    about being fairly compensated for your
  • 00:01:35
    work, right? Like that you'll work for
  • 00:01:37
    pennies. Obviously that's not the case,
  • 00:01:38
    right? Because everyone wants to be paid
  • 00:01:41
    enough to at least make rent, buy food,
  • 00:01:43
    right? Like that's not what pay as like
  • 00:01:45
    a top value is. What pay as your top
  • 00:01:47
    value means is are you the type of
  • 00:01:49
    person who would choose a better paying
  • 00:01:51
    job even if it was more boring or like
  • 00:01:53
    less flexible or like less aligned with
  • 00:01:55
    your identity. If that's you then you
  • 00:01:57
    might pick pay as one of your top
  • 00:01:59
    values, right? Versus are you the type
  • 00:02:01
    of person who would take a lower paying
  • 00:02:02
    job which still pays you enough to pay
  • 00:02:04
    your bills but like a lower paying job
  • 00:02:06
    that felt more meaningful, more creative
  • 00:02:08
    or gave you more freedom. If that's you
  • 00:02:11
    then pay is not one of your top values.
  • 00:02:13
    Another thing to note if you pick pay is
  • 00:02:15
    like if you're someone that really
  • 00:02:17
    prioritizes financial security or if you
  • 00:02:19
    feel like anxious or resentful without
  • 00:02:21
    financial security then pay would be one
  • 00:02:23
    of your top values. Okay. So the next
  • 00:02:25
    value is stability. So stability is how
  • 00:02:27
    consistent and predictable your job is.
  • 00:02:30
    So for example how long the contract is,
  • 00:02:31
    what the benefits of the job are,
  • 00:02:33
    whether you have like the opportunity to
  • 00:02:35
    continue doing this job long term. So if
  • 00:02:37
    you're someone that really values
  • 00:02:39
    knowing what the next six months of your
  • 00:02:41
    life looks like or like the thought of
  • 00:02:43
    like a project or gig based job where
  • 00:02:44
    after the project is done you have to
  • 00:02:46
    find something else. If that thought of
  • 00:02:47
    like looking for something else once
  • 00:02:49
    this is done if that makes you really
  • 00:02:51
    anxious then stability might be one of
  • 00:02:52
    your top values. The next value is
  • 00:02:55
    variety. So variety as your top value
  • 00:02:57
    means how mentally stimulating your job
  • 00:03:00
    is. So like how often things change like
  • 00:03:02
    how many different hats you get to wear
  • 00:03:04
    at the job. Okay. the variety of
  • 00:03:05
    different tasks you get to do at the
  • 00:03:06
    job. So, if you're someone that gets
  • 00:03:08
    bored really easily or you hate routine,
  • 00:03:09
    then variety might be one of your top
  • 00:03:11
    values. The next value is alignment. So,
  • 00:03:14
    alignment is how much your job matches
  • 00:03:16
    your personal values, your identity, and
  • 00:03:18
    your sense of purpose. So, it might be
  • 00:03:19
    like the mission of the job. I love
  • 00:03:21
    using the word mission, like the mission
  • 00:03:23
    of like the role or even like the
  • 00:03:24
    company or if you're someone that's
  • 00:03:25
    like, I can't stomach working for a
  • 00:03:27
    company that sells things that I don't
  • 00:03:29
    believe in or like I don't use. If like
  • 00:03:31
    you actually care about this stuff, then
  • 00:03:32
    alignment might be one of your top
  • 00:03:34
    values. So, those are the five different
  • 00:03:35
    values, right? By the way, if you're
  • 00:03:37
    doubting the claim I made at the
  • 00:03:38
    beginning of the video, which is that
  • 00:03:40
    this is based on actual research. I've
  • 00:03:41
    linked all of the studies that I've
  • 00:03:43
    looked at in the description below, not
  • 00:03:45
    cited properly, like no MLA format
  • 00:03:46
    because I'm not [ __ ] 18 years old.
  • 00:03:48
    I'm not in college. I don't even do
  • 00:03:49
    that. There's the name of the studies,
  • 00:03:50
    the years of the studies. You can find
  • 00:03:52
    the studies. It's all there. Look at
  • 00:03:53
    that if you want to. Okay. Okay, so now
  • 00:03:54
    that you know the five values, you're
  • 00:03:56
    now going to pick two out of those five
  • 00:03:58
    values which are the most important to
  • 00:04:00
    you when looking for a job. Okay, by the
  • 00:04:02
    way, these top two, they're not ordered,
  • 00:04:04
    right? So it's not like top one and then
  • 00:04:05
    second choice. It's like two evenly
  • 00:04:07
    given top priority values, if that makes
  • 00:04:09
    sense. And then after you do that,
  • 00:04:10
    right, after you pick two, out of the
  • 00:04:12
    three remaining values, pick out of
  • 00:04:14
    those three, the one value which is your
  • 00:04:16
    least prioritized. So like the one that
  • 00:04:19
    you give the least of a about in a job,
  • 00:04:20
    that's going to be your throwaway. I'll
  • 00:04:21
    give you an example, right? So, like if
  • 00:04:24
    you really value long-term stability and
  • 00:04:26
    also variety of tasks in your job, but
  • 00:04:27
    you don't really care about like how
  • 00:04:29
    autonomous my job is, like I don't
  • 00:04:30
    really care if a supervisor is watching
  • 00:04:32
    me, then your top two values would be
  • 00:04:34
    stability and variety, and your
  • 00:04:35
    throwaway would be autonomy. Do you get
  • 00:04:36
    me? Okay, so now you should have a
  • 00:04:38
    unique combination of like three
  • 00:04:40
    different keywords, right? So, depending
  • 00:04:41
    on your combination, I'm going to tell
  • 00:04:42
    you the types of jobs you should get
  • 00:04:44
    based on your unique combinations. I've
  • 00:04:46
    given little names to each of the
  • 00:04:48
    different types of archetypes of jobs
  • 00:04:50
    that you should get. I'm going to flash
  • 00:04:52
    it on screen now. Pause the video,
  • 00:04:54
    figure out where you are, and then go to
  • 00:04:55
    like the section in the video where like
  • 00:04:58
    your value is on screen.
  • 00:04:59
    Okay, so now you should know which of
  • 00:05:01
    the 10 archetypes you are. Now, some of
  • 00:05:03
    you might have noticed on that table,
  • 00:05:04
    you might have noticed that the
  • 00:05:06
    archetypes are organized by your top two
  • 00:05:08
    values, not the throwaway, right? So,
  • 00:05:10
    that's on purpose. Basically, your
  • 00:05:12
    throwaway does matter in the sense that
  • 00:05:14
    it kind of changes the flavor of your
  • 00:05:16
    type, right? But the issue is, as you
  • 00:05:18
    can see, there were 10 archetypes. If I
  • 00:05:19
    try and explain all the different types
  • 00:05:22
    of combinations of the top two values as
  • 00:05:24
    well as a throwaway, if you can do the
  • 00:05:26
    math here, right? 10 possible top two
  • 00:05:27
    combinations times three possible
  • 00:05:29
    throwaways each, right? Because the
  • 00:05:30
    remaining three values, that's 30
  • 00:05:32
    different archetypes. And that is like
  • 00:05:33
    logistically not possible for me to
  • 00:05:35
    explain all in one video because the
  • 00:05:37
    video would be like 5 hours long and I
  • 00:05:38
    want to be able to like get out a video
  • 00:05:40
    for you guys every week. Basically,
  • 00:05:41
    we're just going to go over the 10
  • 00:05:42
    archetypes based on the top two
  • 00:05:44
    different value combinations. Don't
  • 00:05:45
    worry, even if your throwaway is
  • 00:05:47
    different, everyone still fits in the
  • 00:05:49
    same core archetype determined by your
  • 00:05:50
    top two values. So, you still definitely
  • 00:05:52
    fit in these 10 and the job will be the
  • 00:05:54
    right recommendation. The throwaway just
  • 00:05:55
    determines the nuance. So, if you want
  • 00:05:57
    to know the exact exact variant and what
  • 00:05:59
    jobs are for you, then you can get a
  • 00:06:01
    hard copy of the file of every single of
  • 00:06:03
    the 30 different combinations broken
  • 00:06:05
    down in my shop. The link is up there
  • 00:06:07
    and it's also in the description. It'll
  • 00:06:09
    set out the 30 which gives you the exact
  • 00:06:11
    variation of what combination you are
  • 00:06:13
    exactly what nuance you need to keep an
  • 00:06:14
    eye out for when you're job hunting. So
  • 00:06:15
    we're going to look at each of the 10
  • 00:06:17
    archetypes in turn. Right? Starting with
  • 00:06:20
    if your top values are pay and autonomy
  • 00:06:22
    then your archetype is the independent
  • 00:06:24
    earner. So the independent earner is
  • 00:06:25
    basically you care about making money
  • 00:06:27
    but also on your own terms, right? So
  • 00:06:29
    like you're not really looking to like
  • 00:06:31
    climb someone else's ladder. That's so
  • 00:06:33
    lame. You're not really looking to climb
  • 00:06:34
    someone else's ladder. Like if a job has
  • 00:06:38
    too many rules or like meetings or vague
  • 00:06:40
    team building exercises, you're gone.
  • 00:06:41
    You're exiting. You're out the door.
  • 00:06:42
    You're gone. You're out of there. Okay.
  • 00:06:44
    You're the type of person who really
  • 00:06:46
    cares about having control over how you
  • 00:06:47
    work and like when you work and like who
  • 00:06:49
    you work with, then the idea of having a
  • 00:06:52
    manager looking and checking out,
  • 00:06:53
    they're like, "What are you doing? What
  • 00:06:54
    are you like at every second?" If that
  • 00:06:55
    sounds worse to you than like figuring
  • 00:06:57
    it out yourself, but also doing it 10
  • 00:06:58
    times slower. If you're like, "I'd
  • 00:07:00
    rather just be just leave me alone. I'll
  • 00:07:01
    figure it out." If that's the kind of
  • 00:07:03
    setup that you like where like you make
  • 00:07:05
    money but with autonomy, this archetype
  • 00:07:08
    works the best in jobs where you can
  • 00:07:10
    directly tie your own output to your
  • 00:07:12
    income and also where no one's stopping
  • 00:07:14
    you from experimenting in the role
  • 00:07:16
    itself. So some of the jobs that might
  • 00:07:17
    be right for you if you're an
  • 00:07:19
    independent earner. You should look into
  • 00:07:21
    jobs in freelance creative work which
  • 00:07:23
    include design, video, writing,
  • 00:07:25
    branding. You can also look at
  • 00:07:27
    consulting or contract based work. So
  • 00:07:28
    these are roles where you solve a
  • 00:07:30
    problem and you get paid and then you
  • 00:07:31
    move on, right? You could look into
  • 00:07:33
    small business ownership especially if
  • 00:07:35
    it's like niche or like flexible or like
  • 00:07:37
    an online business, right? Another thing
  • 00:07:39
    you could actually look into is like
  • 00:07:41
    startup or like solo founder path where
  • 00:07:43
    freedom comes with risk, right? But like
  • 00:07:45
    the upside is yours. That's the actual
  • 00:07:47
    appeal of it. So you're like the type of
  • 00:07:49
    personality that would actually actually
  • 00:07:51
    enjoy being an entrepreneur or like
  • 00:07:52
    being self-employed. Basically, you're
  • 00:07:54
    the actual target demographic of all of
  • 00:07:56
    those people online that preach about
  • 00:07:57
    like everyone should be their own boss.
  • 00:07:58
    Like everyone wants to be self-employed.
  • 00:08:00
    That is not true. Okay. Not everyone is
  • 00:08:02
    well suited for that path or like would
  • 00:08:04
    actually like it. But you actually
  • 00:08:05
    mother you are actually the target
  • 00:08:06
    because you do actually want to make
  • 00:08:08
    your path. You want to make money but
  • 00:08:09
    also you're kind of a control freak. You
  • 00:08:11
    kind of want to do it your own way.
  • 00:08:12
    Control matters more than certainty for
  • 00:08:14
    you. Therefore actually startup
  • 00:08:16
    entrepreneurship solo founder that's
  • 00:08:18
    actually for you. By the way, if you're
  • 00:08:20
    an independent earner, an escape artist,
  • 00:08:22
    a principled builder, or a prestigious
  • 00:08:24
    idealist, then you're going to want to
  • 00:08:26
    listen to this next book. So, these four
  • 00:08:27
    archetypes, right? These are all
  • 00:08:29
    profiles of people who actually want
  • 00:08:31
    more from their work, right? More
  • 00:08:33
    freedom, more meaning, more flexibility,
  • 00:08:35
    and let's be real, uh probably more
  • 00:08:36
    money. Whether you're craving
  • 00:08:38
    independence to build your own thing,
  • 00:08:40
    creativity to actually enjoy what you
  • 00:08:42
    do, or stability in knowing that you're
  • 00:08:44
    like in a futurep proof field, tech
  • 00:08:46
    careers often check those boxes. And
  • 00:08:47
    you're probably sitting there right now
  • 00:08:49
    being like, "Okay, that's cool, Crystal.
  • 00:08:50
    Yeah, tech careers. What the how the
  • 00:08:52
    hell am I supposed to even start?" Okay,
  • 00:08:53

  • 00:08:59
    camps are flexible, beginner friendly,
  • 00:09:01

  • 00:09:04
    you on the back and wish you luck. They
  • 00:09:06
    match you with real projects with real
  • 00:09:08

  • 00:09:17
    literally like anti- college. Like all
  • 00:09:19
    of the learning of college, but minus
  • 00:09:21
    any of the risk of being a barista till
  • 00:09:23
    you're 30 years old. Okay? And it's not
  • 00:09:25
    just coding. Triple 10 has paths in
  • 00:09:27
    data, product analytics, and QA. So if
  • 00:09:28
    you're someone that wants to pivot into
  • 00:09:30
    something flexible, creative, value
  • 00:09:33
    aligned, or just financially logical,
  • 00:09:34

  • 00:09:41
    month. Thank you, Triple 10, for
  • 00:09:42
    sponsoring this video. Okay, the next
  • 00:09:44
    combination is if your top values are
  • 00:09:47
    autonomy and variety, then you're the
  • 00:09:49
    archetype of the escape artist. So,
  • 00:09:50
    you're basically someone that wants
  • 00:09:51
    freedom in how you work as well as
  • 00:09:54
    something new to work on each time. You
  • 00:09:56
    basically hate repetition and you don't
  • 00:09:58
    really give a about structure either.
  • 00:09:59
    You basically want to be left alone to
  • 00:10:01
    do whatever task it is. And you want
  • 00:10:04
    constant variety on exactly what it is
  • 00:10:05
    that you're doing. You might have been
  • 00:10:06
    someone when you're younger that you
  • 00:10:08
    were told you were like restless or
  • 00:10:10
    you're always jumping between projects
  • 00:10:12
    or new things or reinventing some old
  • 00:10:13
    thing that you were into but you're not
  • 00:10:15
    into now. But actually now you're doing
  • 00:10:16
    this other thing you forgot about that.
  • 00:10:17
    You're just you're just all over the
  • 00:10:18
    place. Okay. You're probably someone
  • 00:10:20
    that thinks that you have too many
  • 00:10:22
    interests and not enough time and also
  • 00:10:24
    probably not enough patience to see your
  • 00:10:25
    interest through. you're the type of
  • 00:10:27
    person if you're an escape artist, you
  • 00:10:29
    would do the best in roles where
  • 00:10:31
    creativity, independence, and like
  • 00:10:33
    constantly moving or like constant
  • 00:10:36
    variety is all central to the role,
  • 00:10:37
    right? So, so you should be looking into
  • 00:10:39
    jobs like creative direction, brand
  • 00:10:41
    development, content strategy, product
  • 00:10:43
    design, especially in fast-paced teams.
  • 00:10:45
    You can also look into UX research,
  • 00:10:47
    innovation roles, or like anything
  • 00:10:49
    experimental or crossf functional, which
  • 00:10:50
    gives you that variety that you really
  • 00:10:51
    want. You can also look into
  • 00:10:53
    entrepreneurial paths where you set your
  • 00:10:55
    own terms and you can like like change
  • 00:10:57
    direction when needed or when you get
  • 00:11:00
    inevitably bored. Okay, moving on. If
  • 00:11:02
    your top values are autonomy and
  • 00:11:04
    alignment, then you're the archetype of
  • 00:11:06
    the principled builder. So, if you're a
  • 00:11:07
    principled builder, you're someone that
  • 00:11:09
    really cares about doing meaningful
  • 00:11:12
    work, but also the meaningful work needs
  • 00:11:14
    to be like on your terms, on your watch,
  • 00:11:16
    on your time, mother. Basically, you
  • 00:11:18
    want to be in a role which like aligns
  • 00:11:19
    with like it needs to align with my
  • 00:11:20
    soul, right? training is aligned with my
  • 00:11:22
    mission or like you want to be the
  • 00:11:23
    person like makes the mission, right?
  • 00:11:25
    So, you want to make sure that it aligns
  • 00:11:27
    with what you feel morally is right or
  • 00:11:28
    like I want to feel like my role makes
  • 00:11:30
    an impact blah blah blah. So, it's
  • 00:11:32
    really important for you to be able to
  • 00:11:34
    work and think independently but also be
  • 00:11:36
    in a job where like the driving force is
  • 00:11:38
    something that actually reflects your
  • 00:11:40
    actual values, right? So some roles or
  • 00:11:41
    like some career paths that you can do
  • 00:11:43
    that where like it matches your top
  • 00:11:45
    values. That could look like founding or
  • 00:11:47
    joining an early stage startup with an
  • 00:11:49
    actual clear purpose that you actually
  • 00:11:52
    align with. Activism adjacent strategy
  • 00:11:54
    or like long-term systems change work is
  • 00:11:56
    good for you. You can also look into
  • 00:11:58
    independent consulting in areas like
  • 00:12:00
    DEI, sustainability or ethical design.
  • 00:12:02
    Okay, moving on. If your top values are
  • 00:12:04
    pay and alignment, then you're the
  • 00:12:06
    archetype of the prestigious idealist.
  • 00:12:07
    So, you're the type of person that's
  • 00:12:09
    like, I want my work to actually mean
  • 00:12:10
    something. But also, the other part of
  • 00:12:12
    you is like, I need to be well
  • 00:12:13
    respected, well compensated, but also
  • 00:12:15
    you're the type of person that like once
  • 00:12:17
    a year you'd like to be featured in an
  • 00:12:18
    article about how impactful you are or
  • 00:12:20
    like how you're really saving the world
  • 00:12:21
    or like society or polar bears or the
  • 00:12:23
    children, one of those. Basically,
  • 00:12:24
    you're the type of person that
  • 00:12:26
    simultaneously refuses to sell your soul
  • 00:12:28
    for a paycheck, but also you're not
  • 00:12:29
    about to martyr yourself for a cause
  • 00:12:32
    that pays in like free exposure and like
  • 00:12:34
    cloud and tote bags, right? You want to
  • 00:12:35
    be paid in money. Dollar bills. I don't
  • 00:12:37
    be painting money, but also I want to be
  • 00:12:39
    clapped on my back for being a good
  • 00:12:41
    person because of my charitable job, my
  • 00:12:43
    bleeding beautiful heart, right? So, so
  • 00:12:44
    some careers that might tend to match
  • 00:12:46
    this blend, which you could consider
  • 00:12:48
    include climate tech or like other
  • 00:12:51
    sustainability startups, social impact
  • 00:12:53
    PR or public facing roles. Some BC corps
  • 00:12:55
    are really good or like missionled
  • 00:12:57
    companies that actually practice whating
  • 00:12:59
    preach. You're going to have to do some
  • 00:13:01
    proper digging and research if you're
  • 00:13:02
    this archetype. Okay, moving to the next
  • 00:13:04
    archetype. If your top values are pay
  • 00:13:06
    and stability, then you're a steady
  • 00:13:08
    climber. So, if you're a steady climber,
  • 00:13:09
    you're someone that wants to be
  • 00:13:11
    financially comfortable, but also you
  • 00:13:13
    want like stability, right? Your job
  • 00:13:15
    needs to have structure. So, promotions
  • 00:13:17
    are good. Promotions make sense to you.
  • 00:13:20
    Titles mean something. Basically, any
  • 00:13:21
    job where like you don't have to explain
  • 00:13:22
    to your parents what you do for a
  • 00:13:24
    living. Just think like your Asian
  • 00:13:25
    parents would be down for this. Like,
  • 00:13:27
    they'd be cool with this job. You're
  • 00:13:28
    probably the kind of person who likes
  • 00:13:30
    having a plan and you'd rather be very
  • 00:13:32
    good at like one thing or like one
  • 00:13:34
    system rather than be constantly
  • 00:13:36
    bouncing between industries and roles.
  • 00:13:38
    Like the idea of bouncing between
  • 00:13:40
    different roles, if that makes you
  • 00:13:42
    anxious, you might be a steady climber.
  • 00:13:43
    You also don't want to have to be
  • 00:13:45
    jumping ship every 6 months. So you
  • 00:13:47
    basically want a track to like move up
  • 00:13:49
    on, right? So like one that's clearly
  • 00:13:52
    respected very transparently. it's
  • 00:13:54
    obvious like what the next step is and
  • 00:13:56
    it pays you more the longer you stay in
  • 00:13:58
    the path. So, if this is your archetype,
  • 00:13:59
    some jobs that you might look into
  • 00:14:01
    include government roles. So, that can
  • 00:14:02
    include the civil service or public
  • 00:14:04
    sector admin. This one might be like a
  • 00:14:05
    little bureaucratic, but like to be
  • 00:14:07
    honest, if you're this archetype, it's
  • 00:14:08
    probably still a solid choice for you.
  • 00:14:10
    You could also look into corporate
  • 00:14:11
    management, especially in larger
  • 00:14:12
    companies. You could also be a really
  • 00:14:14
    good fit for finance because the pay
  • 00:14:16
    scales are structured and growth is
  • 00:14:17
    really predictable. Or you can go into
  • 00:14:19
    like being for consulting or just
  • 00:14:20
    consulting. Accounting is really good
  • 00:14:22
    because they give you name brand
  • 00:14:24
    credibility and also a clear ladder for
  • 00:14:26
    moving up the pay scale. Basically, at
  • 00:14:27
    the end of the day, you want to work
  • 00:14:29
    somewhere that rewards consistency and
  • 00:14:30
    these are some of the jobs that you
  • 00:14:32
    could look into. By the way, if your top
  • 00:14:33
    values are pay and stability, you might
  • 00:14:35
    also be interested in this other video I
  • 00:14:36
    made which talks about some pretty
  • 00:14:38
    underrated jobs which pay you pretty
  • 00:14:40
    well and are pretty stable. So, you can
  • 00:14:41
    check that video out when you're done
  • 00:14:43
    with this one. Okay, moving on. If your
  • 00:14:45
    top values are pay and variety, then
  • 00:14:47
    you're what I call an adaptive hustler.
  • 00:14:49
    I hate that name, but I couldn't think
  • 00:14:50
    of a better one, which is what we're
  • 00:14:51
    going to go with. Okay, you're an
  • 00:14:53
    adaptive h. God, I hate the word
  • 00:14:54
    hustler. You're an adaptive hustler.
  • 00:14:56
    Basically, you're someone who likes it
  • 00:14:58
    when like no two work days look the
  • 00:14:59
    same, right? You're someone that really
  • 00:15:02
    needs you need stimulation. Okay, so it
  • 00:15:03
    might be like new challenges, new
  • 00:15:05
    clients, etc. You're probably really
  • 00:15:06
    good at jumping into unfamiliar
  • 00:15:08
    situations or like you like jumping into
  • 00:15:10
    unfamiliar situations. You like just
  • 00:15:12
    figuring it out. You're like, I'll just
  • 00:15:13
    I'll just learn in the job. Okay, it's
  • 00:15:14
    fine. Learning [ __ ] on the job, that's
  • 00:15:16
    your cup of tea, right? You like doing
  • 00:15:17
    that [ __ ] You might be really good at
  • 00:15:18
    multitasking or thinking outside the
  • 00:15:20
    box. If you identify as someone that
  • 00:15:21
    kind of just like, oh, I do like a
  • 00:15:22
    little bit of everything. This is
  • 00:15:24
    probably you're probably an adaptive
  • 00:15:25
    hustler. So, I basically just describe
  • 00:15:26
    the variety part of this archetype,
  • 00:15:28
    right? But because the other value is,
  • 00:15:30
    hey, you also want to be well paid for
  • 00:15:31
    this. Okay, which is fair. That makes
  • 00:15:33
    sense. So, jobs that fit this profile
  • 00:15:35
    tend to be really high output, really
  • 00:15:37
    fast-paced, and they're often project
  • 00:15:39
    based because that gives you the maximum
  • 00:15:41
    variety and also lets you have the most
  • 00:15:43
    opportunities to be well compensated for
  • 00:15:44
    your work. So you might want to look
  • 00:15:47
    into jobs in brand strategy or creative
  • 00:15:49
    agency work because that is where every
  • 00:15:51
    client is different. Every job is
  • 00:15:52
    different. You could look into event
  • 00:15:54
    planning or production where no day is
  • 00:15:56
    repeatable. There goal clients of all
  • 00:15:58
    all shapes and sizes. Media marketing
  • 00:16:00
    content roles that reward probably
  • 00:16:03
    monetarily speed and reinvention which
  • 00:16:04
    are both things that are you're good at.
  • 00:16:06
    Or you can look into gig or contract
  • 00:16:07
    based work, especially if you're
  • 00:16:09
    juggling multiple streams of income at
  • 00:16:12
    once, so you can have more control over
  • 00:16:13
    how your income is coming in on a
  • 00:16:15
    day-to-day. Okay, moving on. If your top
  • 00:16:18
    values are autonomy and stability, then
  • 00:16:19
    you're a steady individualist. So, if
  • 00:16:21
    you're a steady individualist, you're
  • 00:16:23
    basically someone that wants long-term
  • 00:16:25
    security, but also you don't want to be
  • 00:16:27
    micromanaged or have someone fully
  • 00:16:28
    breathing down your neck 24/7. You're
  • 00:16:30
    probably someone that prefers work
  • 00:16:32
    that's consistent or like you kind of
  • 00:16:33
    know what's going on every day, right?
  • 00:16:35
    but also you kind of want a say in how
  • 00:16:37
    things are done personally. Most likely
  • 00:16:39
    you're described or you identify as
  • 00:16:41
    someone that's quite thoughtful,
  • 00:16:43
    organized, and also independent. So,
  • 00:16:44
    you're the kind of person that really
  • 00:16:46
    likes having control over your
  • 00:16:48
    environment, but maybe you don't really
  • 00:16:50
    need all the constant variety to stay
  • 00:16:52
    engaged. You kind of just like doing the
  • 00:16:54
    same thing over and over, but you just
  • 00:16:55
    kind of you want to be able to do it
  • 00:16:57
    your way. So if you're a steady
  • 00:16:58
    individualist, you want to look for a
  • 00:17:00
    job that has clear structure and job
  • 00:17:02
    security, but also it has enough room
  • 00:17:04
    for you to manage your own time or like
  • 00:17:06
    your own workspace, right? So some of
  • 00:17:07
    the jobs that might be good for this
  • 00:17:09
    include operations, project management
  • 00:17:11
    or like compliance roles, especially in
  • 00:17:13
    wellestablished companies because they
  • 00:17:15
    give you that stability. You can also
  • 00:17:17
    look into academic research coordination
  • 00:17:19
    where you're managing like long-term
  • 00:17:21
    plans, but it's not fully fully fully
  • 00:17:23
    chaotic. admin or systems work,
  • 00:17:25
    especially like tech adjacent admin or
  • 00:17:26
    systems because there's both
  • 00:17:28
    predictability and like also process
  • 00:17:30
    ownership and like what's going on every
  • 00:17:32
    day. Or you can get into specialist
  • 00:17:33
    consulting where you manage your own
  • 00:17:36
    case load inside of a broader team.
  • 00:17:38
    Okay, moving on. If your top values are
  • 00:17:39
    stability and variety, then you're what
  • 00:17:41
    I call a structured explorer here.
  • 00:17:43
    You're basically the type of person that
  • 00:17:45
    needs a job to be mentally stimulating
  • 00:17:47
    with like a bunch of like different
  • 00:17:48
    tasks, right? a bunch of a variety of
  • 00:17:50
    different tasks, but also you don't
  • 00:17:51
    necessarily want to be tossed to the
  • 00:17:52
    wolves. Like, you don't really want to
  • 00:17:54
    be thrown into full chaos. You're the
  • 00:17:55
    type of person who likes having new
  • 00:17:57
    things to work on and like different
  • 00:17:58
    problems to solve, different people to
  • 00:18:00
    deal with, but like all within a system
  • 00:18:02
    that's pretty established and won't just
  • 00:18:03
    suddenly collapse on you for no reason.
  • 00:18:05
    You're probably someone that's both very
  • 00:18:07
    easily bored, but also very anxious when
  • 00:18:09
    things get unpredictable. I'm sure
  • 00:18:10
    you're a great person to be in a
  • 00:18:11
    relationship with. I'm just kidding. Not
  • 00:18:13
    really. Basically, you want both
  • 00:18:15
    stimulation, but also a reliable
  • 00:18:16
    foundation. I'm sure you're a great
  • 00:18:18
    person to be in a relationship with. I'm
  • 00:18:19
    just kidding. I just made that joke. No,
  • 00:18:21
    I'm kidding. Not really. So, jobs that
  • 00:18:23
    tend to fit this balance of like
  • 00:18:25
    stimulation and stability. These might
  • 00:18:27
    include product management because your
  • 00:18:28
    work is project based, but it's also
  • 00:18:31
    like grounded in road map or like a
  • 00:18:32
    longer term root of like what's going
  • 00:18:34
    on. You might also consider teaching,
  • 00:18:36
    especially in environments where there's
  • 00:18:38
    like strong institutional support, which
  • 00:18:39
    gives you that stability. And also
  • 00:18:41
    teaching, consider teaching small kids.
  • 00:18:42
    I'm sure there's enough chaos and
  • 00:18:44
    variety for that on the dayto-day. You
  • 00:18:45
    could also consider healthcare roles,
  • 00:18:47
    especially with rotation, so you're not
  • 00:18:48
    always doing the same thing all the
  • 00:18:50
    time, but also there's structure, right?
  • 00:18:52
    To be honest, healthcare in general is
  • 00:18:53
    probably a good one for you because
  • 00:18:55
    there's enough chaos, but you're also
  • 00:18:57
    not at risk of like being let go all the
  • 00:18:59
    time. Some good ones, radiology, speech
  • 00:19:01
    therapy, even nursing. They're all good
  • 00:19:03
    options to consider. You could also
  • 00:19:05
    consider policy, urban planning, or like
  • 00:19:07
    nonprofit operations where the mission
  • 00:19:09
    itself evolves, but the systems or like
  • 00:19:11
    what you're doing, your task stays
  • 00:19:13
    pretty similar on the day-to-day. Okay,
  • 00:19:14
    moving on. If your top values are
  • 00:19:16
    stability and alignment, then you're a
  • 00:19:18
    purposeful planner. So here, you're
  • 00:19:20
    someone that wants to feel secure in
  • 00:19:21
    your work, but also you want to feel
  • 00:19:23
    good about your work, right? So like you
  • 00:19:24
    want to feel like your time is going
  • 00:19:26
    into something that matters, but also I
  • 00:19:27
    want to feel like I'm not going to be
  • 00:19:28
    let go all the time. Okay? You're
  • 00:19:29
    basically someone that's not really
  • 00:19:32
    looking to chase huge risks, huge
  • 00:19:34
    rewards. Like you're not a big risk,
  • 00:19:35
    high risk, high reward. That's not you.
  • 00:19:37
    You're not looking to like radically
  • 00:19:39
    change or like invent some like invent
  • 00:19:40
    the next great thing. It's not really
  • 00:19:42
    you. What you're looking for is
  • 00:19:43
    basically you want a job that has
  • 00:19:46
    consistency. It has values that you're
  • 00:19:48
    aligned with and it has like a clear
  • 00:19:49
    sense of purpose and therefore gives you
  • 00:19:50
    a clear sense of purpose in your own
  • 00:19:51
    life. Okay? You're probably someone
  • 00:19:53
    that's pretty thoughtful. You're pretty
  • 00:19:55
    long-term oriented and you're pretty
  • 00:19:57
    idealistic or like quietly idealistic.
  • 00:19:58
    Maybe you don't you don't say it out
  • 00:20:00
    loud. So, if you're this type of person,
  • 00:20:01
    you basically want to look for a work
  • 00:20:04
    environment where the mission of the job
  • 00:20:05
    or like the mission of the organization
  • 00:20:08
    is clear. The dayto-day is dependable.
  • 00:20:09
    So you're not like doing something
  • 00:20:10
    completely crazy, completely different
  • 00:20:13
    every day. And also your contributions
  • 00:20:15
    actually help people or like actively or
  • 00:20:17
    improving a system or like a structure
  • 00:20:19
    that you believe in. So some roles that
  • 00:20:20
    might match your personality type might
  • 00:20:22
    include education, administration,
  • 00:20:25
    policy work, or nonprofit strategy. You
  • 00:20:26
    could also look into clinical roles in
  • 00:20:28
    like public health, therapy, or
  • 00:20:29
    community programs. Program management
  • 00:20:31
    is good. And you can also look into
  • 00:20:32
    compliance, ethics, or like governance
  • 00:20:34
    roles, which are all, I'll be honest, in
  • 00:20:36
    my opinion, they're like pretty slow,
  • 00:20:38
    but it's like slow and meaningful work,
  • 00:20:40
    which is exactly your archetype. Okay,
  • 00:20:42
    moving on. If your top values are
  • 00:20:44
    variety and alignment, then you're the
  • 00:20:46
    archetype of the spontaneous romantic.
  • 00:20:48
    So, if you're a spontaneous romantic,
  • 00:20:50
    what you want from your work is meaning,
  • 00:20:52
    but also variety. So, you want to feel
  • 00:20:54
    emotionally connected to what you're
  • 00:20:56
    doing, but at the same time, you
  • 00:20:57
    constantly want to be challenged or
  • 00:20:58
    creatively stretched, right? So, you're
  • 00:21:00
    the type of person that moans and groans
  • 00:21:02
    about monotony and routine and you
  • 00:21:03
    really like ideas. You really like
  • 00:21:06
    visuals, languages, people. Not always
  • 00:21:07
    people, maybe not people. Sometimes
  • 00:21:08
    people, you want to feel like what
  • 00:21:10
    you're doing is meaningful and also that
  • 00:21:11
    you're doing it creatively. So, this is
  • 00:21:13
    the type of archetype that thrives in
  • 00:21:14
    jobs which are like really expressive,
  • 00:21:16
    really dynamic. They let you express
  • 00:21:18
    yourself in a certain way. So, if you're
  • 00:21:20
    a spontaneous romantic, some jobs that
  • 00:21:21
    might be good for you, most creative
  • 00:21:23
    roles are good. Writing, film making,
  • 00:21:25
    storytelling, you might be interested in
  • 00:21:27
    something to do with like identity or
  • 00:21:28
    culture. That might be something that's
  • 00:21:30
    inherent in your work, art direction or
  • 00:21:32
    experience design, especially with
  • 00:21:34
    something that has like a purpose behind
  • 00:21:36
    the aesthetics of what you do. Or you
  • 00:21:37
    might go into like multiddisciplinary
  • 00:21:38
    work because that gives you enough
  • 00:21:40
    variety and which might combine like
  • 00:21:42
    art, social commentary, and community.
  • 00:21:44
    So that wraps up the last of the 10
  • 00:21:46
    archetypes in this video. I hope this
  • 00:21:47
    was helpful. I hope you found this
  • 00:21:48
    helpful. As I said before, these are
  • 00:21:50
    based on psychological studies conducted
  • 00:21:52
    on what makes people actually satisfied
  • 00:21:54
    in their jobs, right? So, I wanted to
  • 00:21:55
    make this video so it's like a more
  • 00:21:57
    practical angle into like how you should
  • 00:21:59
    pick your job as opposed to like
  • 00:22:01
    wishy-washy vague advice about following
  • 00:22:03
    your passion. Like, no, follow my
  • 00:22:04
    passion. Okay. And then what? Right? You
  • 00:22:06
    can check out this playlist I made,
  • 00:22:07
    which is a compilation of all of my
  • 00:22:10
    career advice videos.
