This study was conducted to examine the relationship between personality and career choice factors among employees in an electric power company in Johor. This study was also conducted to find out the type of personality possessed by the employees in the electric power plant and the factors that motivate the employees when they make career choices. The instrument used to collect data in this study is a questionnaire. The first Self-Directed Search-Form Easy (SDS-E) questionnaire involved six personality types namely realistic, investigative, artistic, social, enterprising, and conventional personalities. The career choice factor questionnaire involving four factors namely reward, interest, family, and peer factors were also used in this study. The sample for this study was a total of 97 employees who were selected using random sampling technique from an electric power company. Descriptive methods in terms of percentage and mean were used in this study and found that the most dominant personality possessed by electric power workers is social personality and the highest driving factor of career choice is family factor. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between personality type and career selection factors. The findings of the study found that there was a negative relationship (r = -0.048) between personality type and career choice factors. This study has provided a new perspective on the relationship between personality type and career choice factors, especially among employees in electric power companies who may require more skills than personality.
