Type: INFJ
Major: English and Business (the latter only to get a job), MBA (ugh), Ed.D.
Job: Ed consultant, but former banker and controller (ugh)

An awful lot of N's switch careers or career focus every 5 years or so...

Type: ENTP
Major: it doesn't work like that in British universities, you just study one subject alone for 3+ years, but the crushing commitment of that was too much for me so I took European studies, an amalgamation of languages, social science, politics, economics, art, literature and history.
Current job: full time single parent and carer for autistic kid
Career: haven't had one as such, just progressed as I've felt like it into different fields, including hospitality, religious ministry, translation, transcription, private tuition and care work. Am thinking of going into educational/eco tourism though with my own building projects.
