Self Assesment

Self Assesment

Hello everybody,

It was wonderful time and nice to take the self assesment tests and evaluate myself in order to find out what kind of mindset I have. These tests suggested me that I like more to work on the field, but I also will be able to work inside of the office and analyze work material. I think I am an easy-going person and I also am very adobtable to different environments. I can be part of a team work, but I also can do work by myself. As I have mentioned before I have had work experiences in my past where I had to show my organisational and leadership skills.

I like working with people of different cultures because it motivates me and it also makes me appratiate more of what I have. Working with different people gives me the chance to learn more and share my experiences with them. I like to have flexible hours and work around my schedule. As work it is important for most of us, I do my best to fullfill my duties. Patience is part of my personality, but I have a borderline which I don't like to be crossed. It is important for me to pursue my career goals and contribute to a better the society.

Information interview

Information interview

I read a couple of webside about an informational interview. It is really helpfull to findout some information and get some experince about this skills.I know this webside that an informational interview is not the same as a job interview. It’s an opportunity to find out more about a particular career or company. These sorts of interviews can be valuable for anyone, not just those looking for a new job. You might consider this approach if:

i)You’re a recent graduate exploring possible career opportunities.

ii)You have an established career, but would like to discover what it might be like to work for another company.

III)You feel as if you’ve done as much as you can in your current job and are interested in changing fields.

    By meeting with somebody experienced in the field you’re considering, you can find out more about what the work is really like, about how much it pays, and about the drawbacks.

    You now need to gather more in-depth information. Your best source of this information are people who have firsthand knowledge of the occupations in which you are interested. Identify who they are and conduct informational interviews with them

    i read a copuple of websides about a information interview. It is very interesting to find the real career into our jobskill.Skillfully used, an informational interview is one of the most valuable sources of occupational information. It would be cover some of the company webside. It presents opportunites for an intimate and flexible inside view of a job field unmatched by other sources. the information interview helps a lot in our first experince.
    in my opinion is that if we search for our information interveiw, we would get a lot of benifit.
    Can you tell me how you got to this position?
    2. What do you like most about what you do, and what would you change if you could?
    3. How do people break into this field?
    4. What are the types of jobs that exist where you work and in the industry in general?
    5. Where would you suggest a person investigate if the person were particularly skilled at (fill in the blank — quantitative thinking, communications, writing, advocacy)?
    6. What does a typical career path look like in your industry?
    7. What are some of the biggest challenges facing your company and your industry today?
