Testing tools were Enneagram Korean version, tool of measuring job stress and tool of measuring stress coping skill. This research was carried on the 403 nurses in Seoul National University of Hospital located in Seoul, Korea. 368 survey sheets were obtained and analyzed by using SPSS Win 12.0. The results of this research are following. First, in the result of the inventory of the Enneagram personality of nurses, 9th type, The Meditator (n=172, 46.7%) was the largest, and 1st type, The Reformer (n=61, 16.6%) and 2nd type, The Helper (n=9, 2.4%) were next, and the 8th, The Challenger (n=9, 2.4%) was the least. According to enneagram personality, 4th type, The Individualist reported the highest job stress (2.79 point) and 7th type, The Enthusiast reported the lowest job stress (2.51 point). But we found no significant correlations between Enneagram personality and job stress. In job stress’s subtype, results showed that there are the significant correlations between the ’conflict in roles as specialists’ and the ’conflict in interpersonal relationship’. Finally, the results showed that the most participant using the ’seek social support’ as a stress coping skill, the ’problem-focused coping’ style was the second to come, the ’wishful though’t was third, and the ’emotion-focused coping’ style was the last. 6th type, The Loyalist, was exceptionally using the ’seek social support’ as a coping skill mostly, but the ’wishful thought’ was second, and the ’problem-focused’ and ’emotion-focused’ was the next.
