Social Introvert Jobs

The term social introvert sounds like a misnomer, doesn't it? After all, many introverts prefer to avoid social situations. But, as funny as it sounds, this term is actually meant to describe those very people. Social introverts prefer solitude. They would rather be alone or part of a small group rather than being around lots of other people.

However, it's important to understand that introverts within this category aren't shy. That is, they don't experience much, if any, anxiety in social settings. They simply prefer situations in which they have to interact with as few people as possible.

Even so, social introverts are often known for their loyalty. And they tend to be good at understanding their boundaries and developing meaningful relationships with the people who become part of their small inner circles. That's partially why, when it comes to good careers for introverts, people who fall into this category might have the highest number of possibilities to choose from.

If you think that you might be a social introvert, then it's especially important to pay attention to your potential work environment. A lot of social introverts find that working from home aligns with their personalities. And many others try to steer clear of settings that are crowded, noisy, full of interruptions, or don't offer much privacy. A lot of those factors will depend less on your particular career and more on your particular employer.

That said, many occupations offer chances to perform satisfying work without being around too many people. They include a lot of careers in the skilled trades as well as other interesting vocations. For example, here are some potentially good career choices for introverts in this category:
