The concept is most closely associated with psychologist John L. Holland. In his vocational personality theory (outlined in Making Vocational Choices, 1973) he proposed six “career personality” types—Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional (often abbreviated RIASEC)—and argued that people seek work environments that match their type.

(If you meant a different model — e.g., Edgar Schein’s Career Anchors or other typologies — tell me and I’ll summarize those too.)
