r/ESTJ

ISFJ here! You all are my Favourite extroverted type, I've meet three ESTJs in real life and all three were in a mentor role for me in my life, the first one made me discover that I had a passion to learn Forign languages

As for the second one he was a very dedicated and a very skilled teacher at his craft and he made me enjoy learning more about Geography on YouTube

the third one saw and still sees great potential in me that he appointed me as a student council president assistant and to my surprise alot of people seemed to agree that his choice for me was right

I wish I've encountered more ESTJs in my life because everywhere they are in, they make it a better place with the an easy cost of discipline and trust in their plan and vision

Thank you all for listening to me and I hope you have a wonderful day/evening!

Hello everyone, I'm an INFJ 4w5, 35, I've been working on trying to improve my Te a little bit and be more grounded, plus I have a crush on an ESTJ that I plan on asking out in 3 weeks. With that being said do ESTJs tend to feel "more adult"? It's a tricky question, I guess. I've accomplished a lot in this past month by working on my Te, I was able to get not one but 2 jobs after standing up to a former boss who was talking about my personal life behind my back (he was most likely an ESTJ as well, but an unhealthy one). I confronted him about it, and he denied it, which I did not respect. I thanked him for the job and offered to shake his hand, but he kept wanting to explain himself. When he said, "No, I don't want you to stay, but you're going to hear me out", I said "Absolutely not," and walked out. I am also on my last college class and getting ready to graduate with my master's in a few months. It's online, and in the small town I'm in I need to move first to get a job with my degree(hence the 2 jobs for the savings). With these 2 jobs and my student refund, I should have $6,000 saved up in 3 weeks. Honestly, I've been waiting months to ask this ESTJ out simply because I wanted a stable job and some savings.

I think a bit of it is that I still kind of feel like a child. I like making video games, music, and writing stories (using the MBTI and Enneagram to create unique characters). I am working on web development in my free time, taking Udemy classes since my major is information technology, but she's going to school to become a physician's assistant and maybe even a physician after a few years. That's just a very adult job, plus I feel it's more important than coding. Honestly, I'm worried my "childishness" will annoy her. I'm at a point where I feel I'm finally getting a handle on the adult thing it's just not something I enjoy, adulting. I do like being independent and being able to help my family out financially, which is why I like to work and I do want to start a business someday, but other than that, I'm not really big on money or status. The ESTJs I've known (especially my mom, an ESTJ 1w2) always seem like experts at being adults.

Sooo I found out I may be an Estj which is insane. What are the signs? And please no stereotypes. I think Estj are really deep interesting beings let me know everything you wanna spill <3

Hi ESTJs.

I'm trying to get back to work after a near decade gap where I had to take time off for health reasons. I'm feeling really scared, as I've always felt so unsure about the employment process. I worked in my field for like 5 years before this, but I just keep thinking no one will ever hire me. I applied for like 10 positions a few months ago, writing a unique cover letter for each one, and didn't get any responses - occasionally just a generic rejection email where they say that they had a lot of high quality candidates and unfortunately I didn't make the cut. I went to a few careers counselors who pointed out my resume wasn't formatted great, so I am working on it again. But just keep feeling like I'm never going to land a role and just keep feeling really nervous and incompetent.

The sad thing is, I have a degree in a highly technical and very difficult subject which I worked really hard for, and yet now it's been sitting completely useless for the better part of a decade. And it seems despite this degree people still haven't felt like hiring me. Plus when I see the number of applicants on a single job on Seek, I wonder whether they're ever going to take a look at mine. I've also called up some job agencies but they say to just upload your resume to their website and then there's never any follow-up.

I guess I'm posting here because you guys are the experts at these things, I'm seeking reassurance or guidance or something. I wonder if you can offer some helpful words.

Thank you,

A nervous ISFP

I’m diagnosed autistic person, I was diagnosed sort of early when I was 11 years old but I’m level one autistic (if I’m using correct term of myself), I don’t really meet other autistic estj’s but I’m very curious if there are others who are also autistic.
