Wingfinder collects some personal information (such as name, preferred pronouns, and email address) to create your personalized personality report and deliver it directly to your email inbox.

Your pronouns are collected to personalize your feedback report and ensure you are addressed in your preferred way.

This is only to create your feedback report in the most accurate and personalized way. Some of the developmental suggestions are more geared to those starting their career (university students, recent graduates), while others are more geared to people in knowledge-based jobs who want to develop in their career.

Understanding your strengths enhances self-awareness and helps you focus on what you naturally excel at. Red Bull Wingfinder provides valuable insights into your strengths, along with tools and coaching to help you maximize them and address areas for growth. Your personalized coaching plan combines years of expertise and specialist knowledge, tailored specifically to your unique personality, to help you train for success.

Self-awareness is essential for making smarter career decisions. The better you understand your strengths and limitations, the easier it becomes to navigate the countless opportunities available. By leveraging the self-awareness gained through Wingfinder, you can more confidently choose the right companies and roles that align with your strengths.

While your CV showcases what you’ve done, your Wingfinder results reveal how you’ve achieved it and how you’re likely to succeed in the future. These insights can help you clearly articulate what makes you unique and how you apply your strengths in the workplace.

One of the key characteristics that are common on high-performing teams, is a growth mindset. A growth mindset centers around the belief in the intrinsic potential to change and grow and the employee’s capability of transformation. Leaders who cultivate a growth mindset recognize the value of self-insight and identify ways to create an environment that increases the opportunity to be successful. Self-awareness is key to making smarter career choices. The better we understand our own strengths and limitations, the easier it becomes to navigate through the unlimited number of opportunities. To develop a success and growth mindset, you need to understand yourself and be able to communicate how your personality, experiences and motivations set you apart from the rest. Your Wingfinder results can help you explain what makes you unique and how you use your strengths at work.

Wingfinder covers four areas: Connections, Creativity, Drive and Thinking, that comprise a total of 24 strengths. These four areas are highly influential for employability and career success across knowledge-based roles.

Rathering than defining different personality types, Wingfinder provides you with an extensive description of your personality strengths on a spectrum.

Relax, have fun and take the questions one at a time.

No, most parts are around your personality and this is something you don’t need to practice for. Wingfinder is not about choosing the 'right answer', but identifying your unique combination of personality.

No, for roles at Red Bull, we believe there are many different views of what specific behaviours make people successful in different roles and many different people, with many different strengths can be successful. The combination and levels of different Wingfinder strengths (there are 24 in total) predicts the likelihood of career success - not a single strength. Wingfinder is based on a foundational model of personality and ability factors (RAW) that are needed in any role and in any company: People need to be Rewarding to deal with (Connections), Able to do the job (Creativity & Thinking), Willing to work hard (Drive) no matter the role, seniority or organization.

In a perfect world, job interviews (and interviewers) would be able to gauge your talents with great accuracy. However, talent can be hard to judge so we need to do some (humble) self-promotion in the interview to share our strengths and show how we tick all the boxes. So how can we communicate our talent without coming across like a show-off? This is where self-insight comes in - your competitive advantage lies in being aware of your strengths and shortcomings. This enables you to provide strong, authentic, real answers and examples during an interview. Your strengths in Creativity and Thinking help demonstrate your approach to your work, your Drive strengths show your motivation and determination and your Strengths in Connections exemplify how you build relationships. Use your insights from the Connections, Creativity, Drive and Thinking sections in your Wingfinder report to prepare your unique selling points. Make sure you feel comfortable talking about everything that you mentioned in your application.

Each area of the Wingfinder model comprises different strengths, 24 in total, offering many possible unique combinations. The combination and levels of different Wingfinder strengths predicts the likelihood of career success - not a single strength.
