Reflection Paper 1
Firstly, I completely agree with the idea of transferrable talents. These abilities,
which include teamwork, communication, and critical thinking, are transferable to other
industries and professional responsibilities. Looking back on my own experiences, I
see that a lot of the things I do, both in and out of the classroom, help to foster these
transferrable talents. Without even realizing it, I am continuously practicing these skills
through volunteer work, extracurricular activities, and group project collaboration.
Finally, I concur that every job interview is like a sales pitch and that I am the
product. It seems like entering a competitive market where I have to persuade others
that I'm the best option. I approached interviews with a fresh perspective after realizing
that hiring managers are searching for a candidate that not only satisfies technical
standards but also blends in well with the problems and culture of the sector. It's not
just about exhibiting talents; it's about showing how I can solve problems and
contribute to the company's bottom line. This insight has inspired me to delve deeper
into understanding the specific needs of the industries I'm targeting and tailor my pitch
accordingly, making me feel more confident and prepared for future interviews.
