I have the same issue and always have.
One is asking subjective opinion about themselves.
When I was younger I was frequently considered introverted but now I am considered extroverted. Question one should be asking: what was the social situation you were in that made it easier to be introverted than risk being extroverted?
On several occasions I was passed by on job interviews where these sorts of metrics were used.
Given the trajectory of my career any time an HR person rolls out this and a Google search to fit a job:
I start to question why I am using HR to hurt myself and my business
It has been said elsewhere the questions themselves are introspectively valuable to get you to ask what kind of person you want to be, you think you are currently and maybe where you came from. I think if you want to be consistent you will be subconsciously consistent on this test but if you are honest it will drift.

I have found this to be a valuable management tool: in breaking conflicts in which both parties express themselves poorly.
Sit them down and have them take the test then share with each other so you let them walk a mile in the other person's life experience. Just don't judge as the manager but use it as a guide. A person that doesn't mind hurting another person's very sensitive emotions is still a person themselves but perhaps all parties need to understand the team impact.
