Your Handwriting Can Get Or Kick You Out Of A Job

Somebody left a remark in this article: 10 Most Common Reasons You Didn't Get The Job saying his ex-employer analyzed applicants’ handwriting in determining whether the candidate is in or out in the selection exercise.

Now, some of us may be very skeptical about such a tool. But a research on the net will tell you that many people including employers believe hand writing analysis is more objective than a face-to-face interview. Wow!

It was said handwriting analysis cannot determine the person’s age, race, religion, appearance or even gender but it’s completely accurate in measuring the personality of the applicant.

So,the next time you are invited to fill up an application form before a job interview, you may want to pay that slight bit of attention to your hand writing. But seriously, if you have been writing in a certain way, you can't really change it, can you? Hence, to a certain extent, it's true that your handwriting does tell something about your personality.

What Does Your Handwriting Say About You?

Read the whole article here but for the following, I extracted the top 12 items to look for and what it means:

1. Writing slants to the left -- introspective, guarded personality.

2. Slant to the right -- subjective personality.

3. Straight up & down -- objective personality.

4. Large letters -- confidence. If letters seem too large, the person may be seeking attention.

5. Small letters -- introverted. If a person usually writes small, but has a large signature, it means they are truly an introvert, but present themselves as an extrovert.

6. Loopy letters -- caring, thoughtful, kind.

7. Angular letters -- quick, smart.

8. Upswing at the end of a letter or word -- connected to others. This represents reaching out or looking forward. Someone who is very direct will usually simply end the letter, not follow through with an upswing.

9. Combination of printing and cursive - high intelligence. The brain says to go faster and the hand just can't keep up. This is known as "printscript."

10. Heavy, thick strokes -- passion, energy.

11. Strong, high cross on T's -- high goals, strong energy and enthusiasm.

12. Steady, structured baseline on letters -- comprehensive, likes routine.

Interesting, eh?

Now, this is a sample of my hand writing.



Any expert out there can dare to give me an analysis?
