The research study emphasizes the significance of personality characteristics in the provision of high-quality service and the guarantee of customer satisfaction. Career success, job performance, and workplace harmony are contingent upon personality compatibility. The research investigates the personality types of kitchen and dining personnel in casual dining restaurants in Balanga City, Bataan, a significant commercial and tourist hub. The research study employed descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation analysis to survey 100 employees and 10 recruiting managers using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The results showed that there was a negligible correlation between gender and personality attributes, with no significant differences among the respondents. The research study recommends that managers should take into account the MBTI personality differences when allocating tasks in order to optimize job fit and performance. Furthermore, training programs should improve communication and cooperation. The results underscore the necessity of intervention plans to eliminate employability gaps and ensure that the characteristics of employees and the job requirements are in alignment in the casual dining sector of Balanga City.
