Assignment 16 - What's your secret sauce?

The following are different qualities of me which I think are unique:

1. I think that I am very good at explaining things to others in a way that they will easily understand. I can cater my words to speak to their emotions and how they perceive information.

2. I think I have a high ability to learn new information in a rapid timeframe.

3. I do not get flustered when faced with serious challenges, or high levels of stress.

4. I am good at organizing all of my assignments/work in a way that is very efficient. I keep from stressing over deadlines, and rarely miss any critical deadlines/meetings.

5. I can separate my emotions from my logical decisions. If I was ever in a situation where I have to make any logical decisions under emotional duress, I will typically make the smart and logical decision.

Interview 1
This interview said that I was creative and detail oriented. She said that I was very articulate and good at expressing necessary changes to her website.

Interview 2
This interviewee said that I was very well versed in Computer Science and Maths, and did not get stressed out when faced with difficult tasks

Interview 3
This interview talked about my social skills, stating that I am someone who is very easy to talk to. They also said that they think I am very intelligent

Interview 4
This interview spoke about my work in Computer Science research. She described me as level headed, and said that I am very emotionally mature.

Interview 5
This interviewee said that I am very emotionally adept, a good problem solver, and am good at keeping my head calm in stressful situations.

Overall these interviews seemed to reiterate what I had thought about myself. I was surprised with how many people said I was emotionally adept, which is not a quality I would have thought people would often say about me. I do believe that these interviewee's are correct, as these are some people that I know very well. I don't have any major revisions to my previous list.

    It is really cool that you are so skilled at computer science. It definitely is a skill that will get you far in the business world. More and more employers are looking for it on resumes and it will also give you an upper hand at starting your own company with web design or app development. Another trait of yours that I admire is your ability to work under pressure. That skill will definitely help you as an entrepreneur when you are trying to meet deadlines.

  2. Schuyler,
    I was very interested to hear what your interviewees had to say about you and your character. I think that the breadth of values that your interviewees presented really showed the righteousness in the ways that you conduct yourself. I also enjoyed hearing from previous bosses that you had, as it offered an interesting dichotomy to simply hearing from family and close friends.
