According to John Holland's theory, most people are one of six personality types: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional. My highest themes were found to be Enterprising, Social & Art. No surprise there. I like to lead and persuade people, and to sell things and ideas. I have a verbal ability to motivate and direct others. I value success in leadership and business. I enjoy participating in teams, and see myself as energetic, ambitious, and sociable. I like to do things to help people -- like, volunteering and mentoring. I see myself as helpful, friendly, and trustworthy. Lastly, I value people who are expressive, original, and independent. In my current position, I am one member of the administrative hub that provides support for a federally contracted program under the Research Foundation for the State University of New York. In the six months that I've been there, I've become an asset to the program. Because I am bilingual, I speak fluent Spanish, I have all but eliminated the need for the admin hub to use interpreter services when assisting Spanish-speaking callers. I am more than happy to take those calls and assist callers that may have otherwise felt intimidated to call in the first place. When I started working there I created a "cheat sheet" I could refer to as I learned more about the program, more about my tasks, and more about the people we were serving. My compiled notes will be used to create a future employee manual for new employees to read and familiarize themselves with the program. Where do I see myself in the future? My top interests are: sales, public speaking, social sciences, marketing, and advertising. I have no doubt that life will slowly guide me where I need to be. I want to utilize my experience in sales, my studies in research and analysis, exploit my knowledge of the Spanish language and culture, and mold myself into a professional.
