This and the other two books in Marcus Buckingham's 'trilogy' of sorts are probably all in my top-10 on my bookshelf.
Unfortunately it's pricey for an individual ($100 something) since it is being marketed toward organizations, but for further information on the subject of finding your strengths can be found in then short film series "Trombone Player Wanted" if you want to check that out.
Only last point to note - you might either want to re-take that test in the future or be slightly wary of its results. Perhaps I just suck at consistency, am highly influenced by my mindset at the time, or have really changed, but I've taken the test twice, a year apart, and had significantly different results.
