It has zero predictive power, is not repeatable, and fails to paint a comprehensive picture of personality. It was developed by people with no background in psychology/neuroscience

Each year, 3.5 million MBTI tests are administered each. Businesses have been using the test to make hiring decisions. The problem? The MBTI is bullshit.
