The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality test is becoming increasingly commonly used and acknowledged in many fields as a way to identify personality, and some businesses are starting to implement it in many workplaces to assist businesses increase productivity. This study tries to describe the ways in which MBTI can be used to determine an individual's traits in work behaviours, especially when dealing with other people, tasks, assessments, and friendship prospects. To come to a conclusion about how a person's personality and features affect their behaviour at work, this research uses an integrated method of literature review. For the purpose of understanding and interpreting this integrative literature study, numerous guidelines and case-based examples have been explored. It still has certain drawbacks, and there are just a few prior research. Future research in this area will be required to adapt.
