Are you an ostrich, dolphin, rhino or terrier when it comes to problem solving? :chin:

Not sure what I am barking on about? Why not take our quick problem-solving personality quiz to find out more. We have done this to celebrate the launch of our new digital badge, which you can earn to show-case your problem-solving skills to boost your CV.

Monday challenge:
  1. Take the quiz below and share which animal you are! :yippe:
  2. Why not also sign up to our problem-solving course :yes:

    Hey @Hann[/USER] [USER="95043"]apandav[/USER] [USER="96122"]Ravenclaw[/USER] [USER="44074"]plugitin[/USER] [USER="90420"]Hiccup

    Thanks for taking the quiz and sharing your animal persona :thumb: Have you signed up for the course? :yes:

    The thing to remember with these personas is that these traits are natural parts of us, they aren't good or bad, they just are! Having this knowledge though can be a real advantage. Knowing your strengths, and things you may find difficult mean you can make changes when you are faced with a problem. The problem solving course goes into more detail on how you can do this so do give it a go if interested :d

    For example with the ostrich character, whilst they may bury their head to start, they can run really fast and catch up :yippe: I mean look at this gif...

    I got Dolphin...pretty sure I would've been Ostrich (if that's the 'bury your head in the sand' type). Wondering if I answered the questions honestly XD

    @Maisy Yeah burying head in the sand is certainly part of the Ostrich character, perhaps if you aren't sure, you could always sign up for our free course to learn more about problem-solving :hyper: Sign up here: http://goo.gl/forms/1fEVZwhuFh4Tw1IB2

    Exactly the same experience! The mad rush to catch up (love the gif) also sounds like me... :p
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
    The truth resists simplicity.
    I no longer work at The Mix! If you need anything, message or tag @TheMix
