Advantages of Extrovert

Frankly speaking I still don't understand the exact meaning of Introvert or an Extrovert, but I surely do understand the essence of it. With the placement preparations starting in campus, there are many firm coming to conduct mock GDs (Group Discussions) n PIs (Personal Interviews). Also few Alumns and expert come in to lecture us about DOs and DONTs in PI and related. I also read few books and all give direct or indirect reference about Extrovertness. They say that recruiters are interested in Extroverts. Its like they are open and easily mingle up, easy to work with, etc. Well, years ago I saw a TED talk video about Introverts. In which speaker nicely explained the personality traits of Introverts and how they are more creative than others. I am not sure if recruiters know about it, or other if the truth is something else. Anyway, time to bring in my perspective. I am going to list down advantages that I feel extroverts have.


Actually I have begin to think that Extroverts are Members of Herd Mentality or vice-a-versa. As they mingle up easily and have good social interacting ability. I may be somewhat wrong in above statement, but I am not completely wrong. Introverts are like not talking much or shy, they do somewhat different stuffs. So its like they don't have a huge network or much interaction with the world as compared to Extroverts. Having said this, let me put up couple or more points about Group mentality and/or Extroverts.

1. No one is going to ask you to stop doing what you are doing. If others are doing it in large numbers then it must be the right way, this is what is supposed.

2. Extroverts don't have to fight with yourself or with your near and dear ones about changing your personality. There is no Peer pressure as such, since you and your Peers are at same level.

3. They are heard easily. What ever one said is somewhat easily accepted and absorbed by others.

4. People who work for you, work with you or for whom you work are almost at the same level of focus. All the facilities in and around are such as to assist Extroverts. (Making a good and sensible assumption that Extroverts occupy major Chunk of population)


Like always some points may feel repetitive but that is how things are. Having said that, I don't believe in extreme of the two. Each individual has combination of Introvert and Extrovert traits, but majority are more shifted towards Extro case. This is very debatable article, since it contains my own views, which may or may not match with statistics and facts, so if you have any supporting or a different opinion please put it in the comment box or talk to me personally. Preferred is comment box, so that others can also join in the discussion.


Happy Reading !!!
