1. How would you describe yourself in the 3rd person?
If I was to describe myself in the third person and use the multiple personality tests, I would describe myself as a friendly, open, emotionally driven and hard working person. However I understand that no one is all perfect and I can be overly emotional and arrogant in a working and social environment. Based on the test, I always try to get the job done and I answer these questions accordingly and I never try to let my emotions get the better of me. I think I can be personable and honest about my opinions and I can also be agreeable with better ideas than my own.

 

2. Would you be happy to introduce yourself (in 3rd person) to someone else?

Introducing myself to anyone is perfectly fine, I like meeting new people however I get shy and realise that I have introverted traits, so I wouldn’t be the same 3rd Person description that I described earlier. However, once I get to know people, maybe for a week or two, I'm very open and friendly and I wanna do the best for them.  

Emotional Intelligence 

1. How do I react to certain situations

In certain situations, my reactions can be vastly contrasting whether the situation has affected me. In stressful situations, I can often become irrational and my emotions can get the better of me and this often affects the task in hand. I like to give myself five to ten minutes to recover and slow myself down, when my head is rushing. However, once I get over these periods and I can talk to someone about it, I feel relaxed and I can go back to focusing.  

2. How can I adapt to my surroundings 

When adapting to surroundings, I gain comfort in asking lots of questions and getting to know the people around you which is really important when adapting. Sometimes, I like to learn in advance about the new environment in order to feel confident before I even enter the building. 

3. How can I recognise my emotions

I am very self aware when it comes to my own emotions and I can recognise my emotions by taking time to think about what is making me unhappy and what I can do proactively about my emotions and solve this. This could be addressing the problem directly or talking to someone about it. 

 

4. How can I recognise someone else's emotions

When it comes to recognising someone else's emotions, I always look for negative body language or negative changes in the person's character. I always try to help as much as I can but I understand that people need space or they need to talk to someone about it and that solves half the problem. 

 

5. How do I create an environment of positivity in a workplace 

In creating a positive environment, it's important that the balance has been made and the task is not put off track. I often make the occasional joke and take part in fun activities with the team that take 5-10 mins, something we can engage with during the break. I’ve done this at a previous job and it keeps everyone positive.

 

Values and Culture

Look at your values and identify how much you place importance on each of them from 1-10 (10 being very important to you). If you have put 10 on a value that would be one of your core values. 

1. Reliability 
2. Commitment
3. Dependability 
4. Optimism
5. Efficiency
6. Positivity
7. Honesty 
8. Loyalty 
9. Passion 
10. Integrity  

 1. How do you show this value in your work (school or past experience) 

In a group project with reliability,  I like to be on time with my part in order for the group to succeed. I never want to be the one member to let the team down. I commit to everything I do, no matter how important it is. 

 

2. What company also places importance on those values you have marked as 10 

My last job, the White Swann on Fetter Lane, London, felt that reliability was really important. I was there, on time every day,  trying my best to be there for the team as a whole. 

 

3. How do they show this?

The White Swann was really clear that my presence was necessary and that my runner role was critical to the team working well and running smoothly. 

 

4. Are their values aligned at all levels 

Whether its causal dining like the White Swann or fine dining, Its really important that you are reliable and can be trusted with your responsibility at the restaurant. 

Leadership Style

Democratic Leadership
1. Why is that your leadership style?
This is because I like to hear peoples opinions, and the general consensus of the group is really important to me because this could be the same consensus of the public and thats important. 

2. What examples can you give to back this up? 
I've only been a leader a few times in projects and other things. I always as questions, and never let my voice be the final word. I would separate tasks and would ask for feedback from the other members.
 

3. What type of leadership style do you strive to be and why?
I would like to have the knowledge to be more authoritative and persuade more people to get on board with my ideas, this position i would strive. 

Personality and Skills
Charisma
1. What makes me say this is a personality trait of mine?
I like to talk to people and I like charm people for my position or my way of mind

2. What examples can I give to prove my personality is like this?
I've talked to multiple people that I've never met previously at parties or special occasions, and they have said I have charisma.
 

3. In what situation does this attribute come out? 
At social events, whether at a party or in a public place.  

4. What happens when you are not Charismatic?
I can often be shy and introverted and I don't talk as much as usual. But after a few minutes, their mind can turn.

Competitive

1. What makes you say that this is a good skill you have
Whether its a simple game or tough challenge, I can always produce my best in order to win. 

2. What examples can you share to prove that you are good at this.
When I play card games with my family or a football game, I always want the win.  You have to be number one in situations. And if you lose, I am respectable and courteous.
 

3. What have you done to improve your skill.
I look for challenges like joining a new club or a sports teams in order to gain that feeling of winning 

4. Am I constantly challenging myself to be better at this skill. 
Always challenging myself and finding new ways to get better and improve.
