All about ESFP's

ESFPs are good at many things, but will not be happy unless they have a lot of contact with people, and a lot of new experiences. They should choose careers that provide them with the opportunity to use their great people skills and practical perspective, that will also provide them with enough new challenges that they will not become bored.
