Abstract
The topicality of the study lies in the fact that sometimes, owing to the lifestyle, internal motivation or living conditions, or on the grounds of an unsuccessful past experience, a person has a propensity towards leadership or passive submission, as well as altruism and other tendencies. The aim of the study: to investigate whether personality traits of residents of Latvia affect their career choice. The study relies on quantitative methodology - the Lira Survey methodology. The study involved 204 respondents of various professions and occupations from different regions of Latvia in the age range from 19 to 64. The article analyses the results of the conducted study which support the conclusion that personality traits such as Domination, Submission and Altruism are closely related to the research participants’ occupation and their choice of profession. It may be recognized that the degree of expression of personality traits also corresponds to the research participants’ occupation and profession.
