# ENFP at a glance

People with ENFP preferences are stimulated by new people and new challenges. They adapt to change easily and are always ready for a change of scenery.

ENFPs are creative problem solvers. They’re always bouncing from one project to another. In doing so, they’ll often find more than one way to solve a problem or complete a task.

### Interesting facts about ** ENFPs**

ENFP preferences are fairly common, especially in women. While some preferences tend to lead people onto a direct pathway or into specific types of careers, ENFPs rarely take a single route in life. In fact, they often change their minds, careers, and living situations a number of times throughout their lives.
