Among the opportunities that you are interviewing for is an entry-level position as a data analyst with a large accounting firm. You have been told during the initial interview that the firm uses a personality assessment as part of their selection process. You feel that this job requires someone who is very high in introversion since it involves a lot of individual work involving analysis of data on the one hand, but that in potential future roles on an audit team, one would need a high level of extroversion dealing with colleagues on the team and with clients. You have a high level of technical ability and can concentrate on tasks for long periods and also feel that you are sociable, but perhaps not as much as some other students in other disciplines.

Organizational commitment is one of the most prominent things that drive successful organizations; more definitively, affective organizational commitment is the attitude or overall job satisfaction of an organization's employees (McShane & Von Glinow, 2022). As a manager, this is the type of organization we all want, as they are generally happy and want to come to work, unlike the employee found in a continuance commitment employee (McShane & Von Glinow, 2022).
