Did you know that you can work in the political field without having to be a people person? Well it’s true! Political scientists are not so much politicians, though. Instead they spend their time studying the political system. O*NET reports that as a political scientists, you will spend more time interacting with computers than you will with others on face-to-face terms. This is exactly why the sociability score is a 41 out of 100. Yes, it is higher than most of the other jobs on this list; but that probably has a lot to do with the fact that gathering information for their research can involve the use of surveys. Individuals interested in becoming a political scientist should have strengths in areas such as quantitative and qualitative data, political science, writing, and statistics.
