My past work experience started at the young age of 15. I began working in the nursing home in the Activities Department. Some of my duties included transporting residents to and from activities and supervising the activity. I was also responsible for "room visits." Room visits include going to residents' rooms who don't engage in activities in the facility on a daily basis. Each room visit would have instructions with it. Sometimes, I would talk to the resident about the career they had in the past, or the weather, or even engage in a therapeutic activity one on one with the resident.

I also worked in the Dietary Department in the nursing home. In this department, some of my duties included preparing drinks for the next morning's breakfast, working the evening tray line for dinner and delivering dinner trays to the residents' rooms.

I also have a past work history of being a Home Health Aide. At this job, some of my duties included helping the client with activities of daily living. Each client had their own set of needs. These needs were placed on a "care plan" that I would have to follow each time I went to work with the client.

My most recent work experience was not one of my favorites, I was working at Dunhams Sporting Goods as a cashier. Needless to say, I did not like this job because I enjoy a job where I can engage with people and help them.

Some special skills that I have are being a very good listener, I'm also very good with "empathy skills." I try my very best to understand people and the specific situation they might be in, and where they're coming from with their thoughts.

Three of the strengths Consuls display are they are very loyal people. They value security and stability at a very high level. Consuls are very trustworthy and loyal and desire to maintain the status quo. They are sensitive and warm people who genuinely care about other people’s feelings. They are cautious not to hurt anyone or offend them. One weakness of a Consul is that they tend to be inflexible. They place a lot of value on doing what is socially appropriate and can be critical of something that is done that is not within the “norm” of their thinking. They will often stress their own beliefs to encourage others to believe their way is the right way. Consuls are reluctant to improvise or innovate. They usually fear stepping out of their comfort zone for fear of appearing different to others. Consuls do not like conflict. They tend to become hurt if others close to them criticize what they believe in, their habits or traditions.

Five things I learned about the career path for Consuls is that routine work and monotony work are not a challenge for the Consul personality type because they are happy to do what needs to be done. People with this personality type are great providers of social work and medical care. Another good career choice for Consuls is administration which allows them to organize the environment as well as the people in it. I also learned that consuls need emotional feedback and human interaction to feel satisfied in their line of work. Lastly, teaching is another good career choice for Consuls because they are comfortable with authority but also are friendly and supportive enough to keep the authority from feeling overwhelming.

Five things I learned about workplace habits for the Consul personality type are that when they have well defined responsibilities and a sense of purpose, they are efficient, patient and hardworking people that respect the authority of their managers. They thrive on social order and use their social intelligence to be sure that everyone knows their responsibilities and are able to complete the tasks that need completed. Consuls have no trouble participating in teamwork and are always willing to help out when needed. They make efficient and pleasant managers. Consuls appreciate when their co-workers express gratitude towards them. Consuls also like to seek friends at work.

I strongly agree with the results of this personality assessment. One of the main reasons why I agree with this is because I am the person who “holds my family together.” I am a strong believer in carrying on family traditions and believe that life is the most precious when shared with the people who we love the most. I find great satisfaction in making my loved ones feel cared for, valued, taken care of and safe. One of my greatest attributes is that I feel a great sense of fulfillment in serving and helping others. In a group where I am a member, I will often help my friends when needed whether it is providing transportation, an ear to listen, or emotional support when needed.
I believe having good manners and being conscious of those around me would be of great value in my chosen profession. It is good to treat people with respect and courtesy. Being reliable is very important in the workplace. Your employer needs to know you're going to be there and that they can rely on you. Being loyal to the people you work for is also a good quality to possess.
