Careers advice from the BBC

I just visited the BBC website to enter a competition they were hosting. Whilst there I noticed a quiz called 'What Kind of Thinker are You?'. Why not have a go I thought. The result was ...
.
You are an Existential Thinker!
.
Existential thinkers:

• Like to spend time thinking about philosophical issues such as "What is the meaning of life?"
• Try to see beyond the 'here and now', and understand deeper meanings
• consider moral and ethical implications of problems as well as practical solutions

Other Existential Thinkers include
.
The Buddha, Gandhi, Plato, Socrates, Martin Luther King
.
Careers which suit Existential Thinkers include:

Philosopher, Religious Leader, Head of state, Artist, Writer


I particularly enjoyed the line 'Other Existential Thinkers include'. So the full list should read 'Stef, The Buddha, Gandhi, Plato, Martin Luther King'
.
Wow! That was so useful. I'll be popping off to Job Club tomorrow and ask them if they have any Head of State or Philosophy positions on their books.
