Raw Material Assessment
Self-assessment is very important skill for all people, not only students or people who are looking for a job. The first reason is, it helps me to discover myself and to know more about my abilities that I have such as, my strengths and my habits. We should do a self-assessment when we are not sure about a particular decision. The second reason is I can change myself for example, if I notice that I have a bad habit I will do my best to change the habit. The other reason it helps me to improve myself for instance, if I found a good habit, I will try to do my best to improve this habit. Also, at the end of every year I have small book where I write what I want to do in the new year. I write about my habits that I want to improve as well as the habits that I want to change; I write this in my first language which is Arabic because I feel more comfortable when I write in my first language. The third reason of the purpose of self-assessment, is to help the person know the extent of their abilities and to improve upon them without the need of a performance appraiser. The last reason is self-assessment provides a direction for training. When you know what your strength and weakness are, you will find the right training.
I used Zoom meetings to talk to my friends and family due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, I conducted Zoom meetings with the camera on to see their facial expressions. I also, tried to do free online personality test, and it was I a really good experience. I learned more about myself. In addition, I did a survey for my roommates on their opinions about my strengths. The survey will help them to speak their mind and write whatever they want. It is better than the quiz because they are free to express their feelings. I chose to make it anonymously so that they can share their thoughts and opinions freely.
After doing all the assessments about my strengths, I have found that I am good at working under pressure. My friends and family always say, since I am a full-time student and take five classes every semester, I seem to work better under pressure. My other strength is that I am quick to resolving issues. For example, If I notice that something is not working, I prefer to know what the problem is and then just work towards fixing it. Also, I do not like to asking for help, I prefer to search for videos on YouTube and the internet. If I do not find any videos that will help me, then I will resort to asking people for help. Back my home, if things are not working at my home my mother will ask me for my help, I do my best to fix the issues but if I can’t fix it, I will ask someone to help me. This not only in back home also here in Miami, my roommates they always ask for my help. I am a verbal leaner; I like to listen to books and not reading it.
Everything my friends and family told me about my strengths was expected, such as working under pressure or resolving issues because I used to hear that. However, I was surprised when they told me that I am verbal leaner because I did not realize that this strategy about myself. This self-assessment helps me to focus on aspects that I had never focused on before. Asking a lot of people about their opinions about me is so interesting and such a wonderful experience it makes you think how people think about you in their own perspective. there is a huge different between the online tools and people feedback because the online has a limited answer, but the people feedback is not limited.
I used Kahoot when I was with my roommate in the friends gathering. Kahoot is a website that you can create or write your own question and answers, so they must choose the answer in limited time I did it in 10 second and in Arabic which is my first language since I need to know the fast and first thing came to their mind and to have fun. Also, I did imagine question for example, if I was in the apartment alone and there is no one with me suddenly the fire went on what I should do. The other thing that I did was I took a piece of paper and I wrote what the thing that I could be good at for me this was a detox because I start to think about ever thing I want and about every single experience I want through and how I was able to overcome them.
After the thing that I did I found a lot of potential strengths that I have the first thing, I am a good leader since I am the vice president in Oman Association at Florida International university. In 2020, we did an event for Oman national day one week before the event the presented got into trouble with one of the members of the association, and after that he announced he will withdrawal from the Oman Association, so I had to carry out all the duties of the president since I am the vice president. After doing the detox the other potential that I found that I have the ability to be quick to act in the situation such as, when I was back home my sister was doing a tea to my father and she forget the teapot on the fire and she was watching Tv with me after that we noticed that there was a smoke in the house when we got to the kitchen we found the teapot was burning my sister start screaming what should I do which she was screaming I took my little brother out of the house and then I want back to solve the problem. The last thing that I found that I am brave because I am an international student, I came here alone no one with me doing everything by myself for me was a huge challenge not only that also I came from society that is prohibited to let a female travel and live alone. In addition, doing something that against the society beliefs and habits is a bold.
This category is different and too deep because in the potential strengths you learn and notice a new thing that you have never notice them this makes me feel a different way about myself. Moreover, I learned that all the people have a lot of strength that they are not aware of them. In potential strengths I used two sources on of them was Kahoot with my friend and the other one was a piece of paper was with me the reason why I did that because I want to hear people opinion and my opinion about the thing that I think I could be good at. My mother always said that If you want to know something that you have you should check your experience in your life. The three thing that a I think I could be good at was unexpected because each one of them I have no idea that I have them. Let me explain each one why I did not expect the first one is I can be a leadership if I did not experience the situation, I been through I will not be able to know that I might be a leadership. The second thing I could be quick to act in situations. The third thing is brave I always thing I am not breve enough, but I do not know why I think like that after this self-assessment I am sure that I am brave since I did a lot of thing that the girls in my society, they could not do it for instance, traveling alone and leaving alone. All these three things I discovered on myself I need to do a lot of practice to be good at them.
Especially in this category I used Sarahah website. Sarahah is a Arabic name which mean truth Sarahah is Arabic website where people can write for you every thing they want only they have to click on the link and then they can write to you but you don’t know who wrote this. Also, there is a limit number of words they can write I choose this because I do not want to people to write a lot of my bad habit or faults. A human being you always want to see yourself in butter way. The second thing when I want back home, I met my friend I always do with here a deep conversation about how to change my habit there is a reason and aim why I choose my friend because I feel more comfortable with her and she never lie to me I am sure she will say the truth. We have been close friends since we were 11 years old, therefore, she knows me very well.
Having a bad habit, it is not a shame because everyone in this world has a bad habits and fault and no one is an angle. The first thing you need to do change this bad habit to know what a bad habit that you have after that try to read more about this habit and how you can change it. I know it is too hard to change I bad habit but if try to do an effort you will see the result. After doing the self-assessment the first thing I found that I am bad at time management I like to keep everything to the last minutes. For instance, I am student at University if I have homework’s, assignments, quizzes and test I will do everything in the last minutes that why I am butter at working under the pressure since I keep myself under the pressure every time. Sometimes I say to myself that I need to fix this habit but until now I have no idea how to fix it. The second thing that I found I am a messy person my, being messy person is something is not good at all because you can not focus on one thing. Moreover, my room at my home is always messy and when I see my room like that, I do not feel comfortable. I can make my room messy within one minute for example, before I hang out with my friend and it took me long time to organize my room. My mother and my roommates they always say that I am a messy person. The third thing it took me long time to admission of mistakes that I did because I feel that I am right even I am sure that I am not right. In other words, if I did something wrong, I would not say that I did a wrong thing and it take me long time to say that. The last bad habit that I have that I am not patient such as if I did something, I need to see the result at soon as possible even I am sure the result will take time I cannot wait.
Writing your bad habits, it is something really hard and hearing from other people about your habit is hardest, but everyone needs to do this since is very important to fix and change the habits. Some habits it takes too much time to change and you need to work a lot to change it because I it is something inside you or you build it such as, you did something and then affected you and you gain a bad habit. In this category I choose two tools to do self-assessment one of them was face to face with my friend and the other one was online website since I want to hear two different views. All four thing that I get I was sure about them because I know I am not patient, bad in time management, messy and I cannot admission my fault or mistake. To be honest I tried to fix these habits, but I always fail to try to fix my bad habits because I do not choose the right way to solve them.
Many people in the world they say that they do not have any interest, desires, or passion on something. Before a few years I was one of the people who think like that because I didn’t try a new thing my life in that time was based on two things school and home however when I arrived here everything changed. For this self-assessment I chose Instagram to conduct myself assessment since Instagram I can share my photos and videos on the thing that I am passion or interests on based on the people that I am following them. I use Instagram to follow and watch my favorite things and it is usually in my free time and when I feel boredom. Other thing is hearing from my family, friend, and my roommates. Here I preferred to hear the feedback from my family, friend, and roommates because I know them for long time, and they know me very well. I used many sources to get to different opinion and views.
After viewing my Instagram and Instagram archived, I found that I am passion on fashion I like to watch any thing related to clothes. Moreover, I can ware one top in three different way, and I buy a lot of clothes. I feel satisfied when I dress well even there is no event, and this make me to take long time to be ready to go out. In addition, I use Pinterest application to help to get idea how I can ware some clothes in different ways and combine some colors together. Second thing is makeup, I am pretty good at doing makeup I do makeup for me and for other people. I enjoy doing makeup and one of my dreams is to become a makeup artiste. Also, when I am free, I can spend my whole time on YouTube to watch a makeup tutorial and if there is a wedding or event, I will spend my time searching for a suitable makeup for a wedding or event. The third thing is I am interesting at drawing since I like to draw however, I am not professional at all I am still learning how to draw. My father he always encourages me to paint a lot.
This category I enjoyed when I write about something that I am interesting, or I have passion on it make me feel good because you know you are here in this world for a reason. The thing the I have learned that to know my passion or interest it need time and it come day by day also, you need to try new thing and experience to know that I am interesting or have passion on something. I was expected that my friend and my family will be said that I am interesting on makeup and drawing because I do makeup and I draw since I was 17 years old. However, the I only thing that I surprised was I am passion on fashion, to be honest before I do this self-assessment one of my roommates when she saw my closet, she told me you like a fashion, but I did not take her point of view seriously but when I was viewing my post, stories, highlight and profile I realize what she meant in that time. Sometime people say some thing you will not take their opinion seriously until you realize or notice that. I do not think there are any discrepancies between the feedback that I got and what I believe, or I know.
Personality is a characteristic set of behaviors, cognitions and emotional. Every single person has different personality even the siblings each one has different personality this what make people are different. I used online tool to conduct the self-assessment I found a lot of online personality test. The only problem about online test there is a specific question that will not suit everyone. Secondly, I did zoom meeting with my friend she study psychology at Sultan Qaboos University. I choose her because she studies that, and she has a lot of experience at this aspect. The best thing to ask for consultation and feedback from the right person.
After the consultation I find out that I am a sensitive person in other words, if something happened to me you could see through the expression on my face, or it can affect me in bad way. Also, I am a moody person my mood can change easily for instance, If I was happy suddenly heard something bad happen, I be upset the problem the people around me thy can notice that. Moreover, my psychology friend she considers me that I am a conservative person that mean I have limits when I do something such as, I am Muslim and my religion has a lot of limits and stuff that I can’t do such as, in my religion is prohibited to drink alcohol even you are 21. In addition, I am adventurer person since I like traveling a lot and I always went to do something new however there is a limit. I did raft and zip-lining at smoky Mountain.
In my opinion this self-assessment is the best self-assessment since I had new experience with my psychology friend, she helps me a lot and she give advice that are helpful. The online personality test was not accuracy enough since this test for everyone. I was expected when she said I am moody person and I am adventure person, the two thing that I were not expected are that I am a sensitive person and conservative person. Before, I heat when people tell me you are sensitive person since I think if I am a sensitive person, I will not be strong. The reason I was surprised is because I did not think about my self as a conservative person, I was thinking everyone in Islam religion like that. Also, I am now not in my country and no one of family here but still I cannot cross the limit.
In this self-assessment I used two thing one of them I took a piece of paper and I wrote everything that I cannot live without. Here I started to imagine stuff to know what the important thing for me. the second thing I used Instagram story and I did ask me to question the question was what is my core value. I used Instagram story because I can share other people answer or thought and everyone can get knowledge. There were a variety answers because everyone sees other core value on his own aspect.
There were a lot of answers however I choose the common answer. The importing thing to my life is my family. studying a broad is very hard decision leaving my family is so hard and I am here not because I want to be here my family, they support me a lot to be here. Especially my mother she is my everything. Second, my phone because I am so attached to my phone such as, I have a problem with remembering stuff like appointment and people numbers, so I use my phone to do reminder if I have an appointment today. My core value is my principle since I think this can represent me and distinguishes me among people. Third, I always want to see everyone in my life happy I will do my best to help them.
The thing that I learned from this self-assessment everyone will see you on his aspect and view. Therefore, everyone has his own core value. Everything here was expected on my core value like, my family, cell phone and my principle. Family, I am to close with them sometimes I prefer to stuff with my family more than with my friends. Also, I use my phone for everything order food, online shopping, order Uber, and listening to music. Moreover, principle I think is very important to have you own principle because of that you will have your own personality.
At the end after doing this all-self-assessment was I grateful experience. I learned a new thing about me such as, in personality section I am a sensitive person, conservative person, and in my potential strength leadership, quick to act in situations and breve. The other new thing that my strength is verbal leaner. Otherwise, all the things were expected such as, on passion section people said that I am passionate about drawing and doing make-up since I was 17 years old.
The result the I found from the whole category that if you ask a group people about their opinion they will give you different answer dependent on their personality even if I choose the same people for each self-assessment. There are negative and positive view however the positive are more than the negative. The only thing negative that I notice is my bed habits like I am messy. I choose all traits that might I have, or I have them and the answers that are common.
Raw Materials Assessment
As explained in the reading “Start the Marketing Yourself Process by Assessing Your Raw Materials,” a thorough assessment of your personal raw materials will be necessary for you to begin the marketing yourself process.
Step 1
For this assignment, you will need to conduct an evaluation of your own personal raw materials with respect to the following six categories (each of which was explained in the assigned reading and videos):
- Strengths (or what you’re already good at)
- Potential Strengths (or what you think you could possibly be good at with practice)
- Faults or Bad Habits
- Interests, Desires, Passions (or what motivates you)
- Your “Personality
- Core Values (or what’s important to you)
Step 2
After conducting your self-assessment, write up your results using the following guide:
- Cover Page
Name, Panther ID, Major, Minor, Certificate(s), Assignment Title
- Introduction
Discuss the purpose for your raw materials self-assessment
- Raw Materials
For each of the six categories, please explain the following:
- How did you conduct your self-assessment for that particular raw materials category? Use at least one online assessment for the Strengths category and at least one online assessment for the Personality category. You may use other online assessments for other categories if you wish. For all categories, you should seek the feedback of your family, friends, co-workers, supervisors, and/or employees, etc. in order to gain knowledge from a different perspective. Explain why you used the various assessments and/or sources that you used.
- What are your resulting findings? In other words, what are your strengths? …your potential strengths? …your faults or bad habits? Etc. Be sure to describe each trait or aspect (just listing a few adjectives is not “A” or “B” work). Be specific and detailed in describing your findings
- What insights about yourself did you learn from the self-assessment for each raw materials category? What was expected and what was unexpected? Why? How did you feel about the insights of the other people you consulted? Are you coming across as having different raw materials than you think you possess? Are you portraying your raw materials as you desire? Also, what do you think about any discrepancies between the feedback that you received from other people and from the online tools?
You should have at least one paragraph for each of these three parts above (a-c) for each one of the six categories.
4. Summary & Synthesis:
(a) Provide an overall summary of your raw materials and then
(b) (this is very important) synthesize the results for all the categories. Consider the balance between the positives and the negatives. Consider how certain traits or attributes might complement or might compete with others. Consider whether certain traits (either initially seen as positive or negative) might coincide with or perhaps might conflict with your discovery of your core values. Speculate on how the synergies or lack of synergies between raw materials categories might help and/or hurt your abilities to develop your personal/professional brand and market yourself. This synthesis and summary section is a critical element in tying all of your assessment work together, and will help you drive your “marketing yourself” plans as you move forward. Be sure to put significant effort into this section.
