After reading the post, I'll just take the subtitle and run with it:

> Using personality clues strategically to stress test potential hires

The post pays lip-service to the concept of 'pop science' but then goes face-first into surface-level pop psychology.

> The personality science literature also let’s us stereotype a bit better.

There it is. Introverts are like X, extraverts are like Y, and maybe also Narcissists...

The sequel to this post will be how to label those people better: the lone wolf, the loose cannon, the people pleaser, etc. etc.
