What must be Held in Mind and Done in Job Hunting 第5页Come up with a score for each skill area. Since there are five questions per skill, the highest you can score is 25. You can then identify your two or three areas of strength and weakness.
Skill 1-self-restraint: This skill is about having the capacity to think before you speak or act. It is the opposite of what is commonly referred to as“putting your foot in your mouth.”A person with self-restraint takes a methodical approach and thinks everything through logically rather than being impulsive.
I always take my time before making up my mind.
I am generally tactful and diplomatic.
I usually think before I speak.
I always make sure I have the facts before I act.
I seldom make comments that make others uncomfortable.
Skill 2-Working Memory: This is your ability to hold information in your mind while you perform other complex tasks. People with good working memories remember appointments or even the items they need to buy without using written lists. The opposite of good working memory is usually described as being absent-minded.
I remember facts, dates and details readily.
I am good at remembering my commitments.
I naturally remember to complete my tasks.
I always keep sight of the goals I want to accomplish.
When busy, I can see both the big picture and fine details.
Skill 3-Emotion Control: This skill is all about ensuring your emotions do not get in the way of what you are trying to accomplish．When you have high levels of emotional control，you do not get sidetracked and you find ways to dwell on the positives of each situation you encounter．People who are low in emotional control are very sensitive to criticism and go into situations expecting to fail.
I can keep my emotions in check while on the job.
I usually handle confrontations calmly.
Little things at work don’t distract me from the task at hand.
When frustrated or angry, I keep my cool.
I defer my personal feelings until the task is completed.
Skill 4-Focus: Focus is the ability to stick with something through to completion. When you have executive focus, you become immersed in a task and filter out distractions. You will have a reputation for meeting your deadlines. If you are low on focus, you will get easily sidetracked by frivolous matters.
When I have a job to do, I easily avoid distractions.
Once I start something, I work at it until it is finished.
I find it easy to stay focused on my work assignments.
When interrupted, I quickly get back to work again.
I attend to my tasks, even when they seem tedious.
Skill 5-Task Initiation: Those who are strong in this area find it easy to begin new tasks. This is the opposite of procrastination. People with strengths in task initiation will find it easy to start new projects and will want to tackle assignments right away rather than putting things off until the very last moment. A good indicator of strength in this area is you hit the ground running each morning rather than needing to psych yourself up.
As soon as I get a new assignment, I like to get to work.
Procrastination is usually not a problem for me.
I believe in getting started on things as soon as possible.
I get to work even I’d rather be doing something else.
I generally start my assigned tasks easily.
Skill 6-Plan and Prioritize: People with strengths in this skill are well organized, efficient and clear thinkers. If this is you, then you probably have no problems saying no to other requests on your time that would distract from your achievement of key objectives. If you are low in this skill, you will keep on running around in circles being unable to tell where to start and what is important. You may even drop out of a project because something else comes along.
When I start each day, I have a clear plan in mind.
When I have lots to do, I prioritize intensively.
I have set plans to achieve key long-term goals.
I am very good at setting priorities and sticking to them.
I usually break big tasks down into milestones.
Skill 7-Organization: If you look at your desk or workspace, this will usually be a reasonable indicator of how well organized you are. If your desk is generally tidy and pile free, that usually means you are quite well organized in your approach to work. Conversely, if you routinely misplace the things you need and have no real systems for handling files, e-mail or other paper that comes your way that would suggest you are reasonably disorganized.
I am very well organized in my life.
I am good at maintaining systems to keep myself organized.
I naturally keep my escritoire neat and organized.
It is easy for me to keep track of my materials.
My mail and to-do lists set up and used effectively.
Skill 8-Time Management: If you are strong in this area, you will usually meet your deadlines in efficient and methodical ways. Good time managers will also be able to accurately estimate how long a project will take. Time management is centered around having a good appreciation that time is important. If you are deficient in this skil1, you will often find you are only accomplishing a fraction of what you had planned because you underestimated the amount of time required.
I can pace myself according to my time restraints.
At the end of the day, I have usually finished my tasks.
I am good at estimating how long it will take to do things.
I am usually on time for my appointments.
I routinely set and follow a daily schedule of activities.
Skill 9-Achieving Goals: If you are in the habit of setting goals and then following through, odds are good you are strong in this skil1. This is a matter of not letting obstacles stand in your way and following through to completion of the task. It is also a matter of avoiding distractions．People who are deficient in this skill get enthusiastic about new ideas but keep on bouncing from one thing to another without making any real progress.
