Do What You Write!
Identifying your Career Direction from Handwriting

by Fiona MacKay Young
 

Question:  Can Handwriting Analysis help you decide on a career?

Answer: YES!

To plan your career completely from handwriting requires a full, comprehensive Career Assessment Analysis, but just by glancing at your writing for a few minutes you can pick up some career direction clues.

The advantage of handwriting analysis as a career planning tool is that, unlike any other of the battery of career aptitude tests available, it is objective, not subjective.  You are not required to answer questions about yourself as in most tests but just to write in your normal way. The result shows who you truly are, not who you think you are, or who you want to be.  So the career it points to fits the real person you are now, no modification required.

Job Fit career planning bookThis is what Job Fit was written to provide: objective, clear, accurate career advice.  Job lists to match your personality, plus a comprehensive job search guide.

Would you be good in sales? 

Selling is part listening, part persuasion.  The persuasive writer will show at least a moderate right hand slant, as this indicates that he will show emotion.  Persuasion always has an emotional component.  This writer is better able to relate to the needs of the buyer and shows it.

Although listening is a vital part of selling, so is speaking.  It is hard to persuade in silence!  So look for a mixture of open and closed circle letters (“a”, “o” and the circle part of “g” and “d”.)  An open circle is an open mouth (talking); a closed circle is a closed mouth (silent.)

And probably some decisiveness would help close the deal.  For this look for writing where the final stroke, before lifting the pen from the page, ends bluntly, with as much pressure as the rest of the writing.  When the stroke drifts off into nothing-ness, indecision is indicated.

How about the helping professions, such as nursing, child care etc.?

For this you want “people who need people” (to quote the song) which shows in lower loops the width of the rest of the letter, completed by returning to the baseline.

Empathy or compassion necessary is shown in soft “u” shaped forms, called garlands, at the baseline of the writing, as opposed to sharp “v” shaped angles.

A mild to moderate right slant would be good, indicating someone who will show warmth, but at the same time be able to remain calm in a crisis.  Far right slant shows a writer likely to be impulsive, while an upright or backhand slant is someone who would not show much warmth.

Or perhaps you are considering work where research would be a prominent part of the job.  Look for the “n” and “m” with sharp upper points, like inverted “v”s, showing person who wants to understand the who, where, when, why, what and how of everything.  Also regular “v” formations at the baseline, indicative of the writer who will analyze the information gained. 

Add to that clear thinking, and you have someone who can easily sift through unnecessary information to get to the core details they need.  The clear thinker writes with no initial, lead in strokes.  No frills – just simple, clear, direct.

Is a career where you pay meticulous attention to detail a good choice for you?  Look at your “i” dots.  The closer they are to the top of the “i” stem, the more inclined to detail the you are. 

Accountants, engineers, computer programmers – they usually have i-dots very close to the top of the stem.  The further away the i-dot, the less you want to be concerned with smaller detail, until, when i-dots are totally missing, you would not only be likely to be unsuccessful in a detailed job, but also feel extremely frustrated by the necessity of constantly trying to pay attention to minor points.

Of course, for each of these jobs there are many more traits to consider, but hopefully this shows just how helpful handwriting analysis really can be in helping you find what you’d be truly suited to in the world of work. 

You really can write your own job – in fact you do it every time you pick up a pen!
