As the demand of applications increase, the demand of the services of the developers also increases. No two human beings can think exactly the same on every aspect. This forms the basis of the difference in the personality traits. On one hand it should be accepted that a general statement about any type of professional is not acceptable in this corporate world because exceptions are supposed to be present. On the other hand if we segregate the group into different types of personality traits it can serve as a guideline and help us to build professional relations.
Some of the major types of personality traits are as follows.

• Wisdom, Experience and Age
Wise men never liked to be younger than their age. Wisdom follows experience and experience follows age. The experienced developer may not be as young as you expect but with tons of experience he/she can make your application reach the pinnacle of success. You can depend on these sorts of developers especially when things go awry.
• Project completion oriented developer
These types of developers make the optimum use of their skill and experience to complete the task taken at hand. Limited knowledge is not a barrier for these kinds of developers because they are flexible and always ready to learn new things. These developers are excellent at searching open source software and other resources that are freely available. This type of thinking is now not very impressive because this personality trait has become very common among the developers.
• The Scholarly Know-It-All
The scholarly know-it-all is a walking encyclopedia on programming. He can spend hours passionately discussing the history of a programming language or dissecting imperfect code. If needed this type of developers develops his or her tools and equipments.
• Workaholic
The workaholic goes one step further than the usual professional and tries to use all the resources available for fulfilling the commitment. For these kinds of developer work is worship. They are engrossed so much in work that at times they tend to forget their meals.
• Performance Speaks
There are developers that always believe in doing rather than showing off their knowledge. These types of developers are known to keep the niceties and shortcuts to themselves and never share it. They are usually introverted and hardly will you find them sharing their knowledge with anyone else.
• Quantity matters
There are developers who believe in handling simultaneously as many projects as possible. These kinds of developers just want to maximize their clientele and revenue but they do not care whether the quality suffers.
• Intelligent Communicator
This type of developer is unofficially the project manager just because of his/her art of being communicative. He/she has such a personality that he/she is able to balance the team of developers and clients. He/she is quick at building public relations and capitalizing on that.
