Identifying one's strengths, weaknesses, interests, and values and learning about one's
personality are all critical initial steps in deciding on a profession. Before deciding on a career
path, I must reflect on my interests, skills, and values in my personal and professional life. What

Communication skills require speaking fluently and confidently with a wide range of
people while retaining eye contact and demonstrating a command of language. Good verbal
communication skill is relevant because I will always need to adapt my language to the specific
needs of a situation, listen attentively, present ideas clearly, and collaborate effectively (Indeed,
2021). I enjoy using the skill because it augments my ability to articulate my thoughts and
feelings, besides being crucial in shaping who I am now. Through practice and exposure, I have
The ability to settle conflicts constructively will serve me well in all aspects of my life,
including family, job, and education, where conflict is inevitable (Melinda, 2019). Because of

my ability to use humour in my communication, I can avoid many conflicts and settle many
disputes. Using humour allows me to express myself freely without worrying about upsetting
anybody. But most of the time, people mistake my intentions. I always try to laugh with the other
person rather than at them. Doing so allows me to relax, calm down, and get some perspective on

the best software tools, a lot of information and data is gathered. Learning about a new bug or
odd behaviour is fascinating to me. The more proficient I am at investigating issues and finding
Creativity is critical as a student. Before I write lines of code, I outline the issue and
brainstorm possible solutions. This is where my ability to think outside the box and solve
problems will shine. I explore and put my ideas and concepts into effect using programming as
the vehicle. After that, I iterate and fix bugs until I find a viable option. As a student, I always
experiment with new programming approaches and refine my existing ones. I need to think

The ability to spark ideas in other people is one that I should work on developing.
Thoughtful discussion demands the use of creative abilities, including idea synthesizing, data
processing, and the ability to articulate one's point of view. I must be able to conduct talks about
intellectual and exciting issues to uncover new matters. I need to be more of an active participant
in meetings and actively solicit input from all attendees. The practice of self-reflection also
appeals to me. Taking stock of my work habits and output will help me plan for future success.
Taking stock of one's place in the world and contributions is an inherently artistic endeavour
(Indeed, 2021). I need to take a step back and consider how others will see my actions, both
When examined more closely, "presentation skills" boil down to nothing more than strong verbal
and written communication abilities. As the presenter, I must present to convince the listeners.
They might be one person, ten people, or ten thousand people. Nothing changes when it comes to
the fundamentals of communicating. I want to persuade others to take action based on what I say.
Working as a computer technician requires me to often consult with my coworkers about the
benefits and drawbacks of several potential approaches to the code. Later in my profession, I'll
need to steer my colleagues toward the right answer. So, yeah. I'll likely need to be able to give
presentations, albeit such presentations may not necessarily include a Powerpoint deck. Effective
As a student, I have to deal with many things, and stress is only one of them. The short-term
pressure has helped me improve my grades, write better essays, and develop a new computer
application. But unresolved chronic stress might have negative consequences. That's true, and I

chronic overload of responsibilities. Setting reasonable goals and committing to a timetable that
allows for enough study and downtime are essential for effective time management. In addition, I

result, I will be able to think more creatively, access more current information, and develop
better ideas. Using visual aids in my presentations makes for a more engaging lecture, and the
process of making them has helped me feel more comfortable in front of an audience. This helps
me prepare for upcoming job-related discussions, interviews, forums, seminars, and debates. My
chances of success will improve if I can express my ideas more effectively. Almost everything I
want to do in life will require hard work and struggle. Learning how to give effective
Conclusion
If we don't know how to classify our skills, talents, and interests, a self-assessment might
help. This evaluation also provides insight into how others may respond to environmental
factors. Taking an assessment test is a great way to gain insight into yourself and confidence in
your unique traits and characteristics (Indeed, 2021). For example, the most prominent skills
include verbal communication, conflict resolution, and technical support skills. On the other
hand, I am more creative and resourceful when pursuing my interests. Indeed, creativity and
resourcefulness are my strengths. Therefore, one of the most crucial considerations when hiring
