Personality snapshot

No country in our rankings has more Extraverted or more Assertive respondents than Switzerland. Both titles come with a caveat: answers lean only slightly Extraverted, and Turbulent answers still edge out Assertive ones. Test-takers here are also the third most Judging, so plans and structure tend to win over keeping options open.

That shows in the Roles. Sentinels are clearly more common than in the average country, and ESFJs (Consuls) and ESTJs (Executives) each appear over 60% more often, while Explorers such as ISFPs (Adventurers) are much rarer.

About the country

Switzerland is a landlocked country in the heart of Europe, where the Alps cover more than half the land and peaks like the Matterhorn tower over glacier-carved lakes and valleys. It has four national languages – German, French, Italian, and Romansh. Swiss inventors gave the world milk chocolate and Velcro, and the World Wide Web was born at CERN, near Geneva. The country is also famous for precision watches, cheese fondue, and the Swiss Army knife.
