Self-Assessment
From the self-assessment I learned that I am higher than average in many areas but I am lower than average in equipment selection and management of personnel resources. I believe that I can manage if needed however, I have not had the opportunity, training, or experience to do. I have a leadership personality but there were not questions asked about leadership. When given the results of the job match, 63% of my skills matched with jobs in the field of hospitality. I agree with that because I plan to one day have an event planning business.
