Year Self-Assessment To briefly review my performance and skills gained this year, I worked on improving my teamwork and interpersonal skills and I gained exposure to various roles and stages of software methodologies and team development. In addition, I have gained experience observing how IT functions in the corporate environments of two different industries: Retail and Finance. I have developed a better understanding of team dynamics and I am learning how to contribute to them more effectively. Over the course of the year I worked two at client sites Meijer’s POS (Point of Sales) team as a QA tester & SME and recently as an agile tester for Comerica’s fraud Traffic team. Shortly after completing UST’s training program, I started my …show more content…
If any pump malfunctioned or was in disarray, I inspected the pumps to rule out the cause: i.e. terminals/MSRs, Fuel Server on/offline, or bugs from a build. I Oversaw installation of any hardware upgrades and software builds and tracked bugs for that department. I worked closely with a developer to ensure that any showstoppers or critical bugs were fixed. Wrote and edited all test scripts pertaining to various transaction types and functionalities, including contributing to developing an information/troubleshooting guide for Meijer’s Wayne and Gilbarco pumps. While at Meijer I contributed to the successes of the department in other ways, by helping train new onboarding testers and helping get them acclimated to the lab environment, testing methods, and team. I’ve volunteered and sacrificed many weekends to come in and run test scripts and write up bugs in order to help them meet deadlines for build deploys into stores. Comerica: I started my second assignment at Comerica on their fraud trafficking team as a new agile tester. Being completely new to the company and to the process of the Agile Scrum methodology, a framework Comerica utilizes for their software development projects. Scrum is team based work broken down into increments of 2 weeks known as Sprints. I learned how to write test cases in the form of ATDD’s (Acceptance Test Driven

I am going to be looking at and discussing how to improve on my own and team practice. Within this, I will be discussing why it is important to continue with my professional development and why team work is important in schools. I will also be describing why it is important to be respectful of the skills and expertise that others can bring to the team.
When it comes to facing challenging obstacles in both my professional and personal life I utilize the self-management strategy of “sleeping on it”. By sleeping on a challenging obstacle this creates time, patience, and provides clarity. As many, I can be very indecisive on decisions that have a big effect on my life, but I find that giving myself an extra day, week, or month to digest the situation before making a decision helps me stay in control. Time helps with self-management because it brings clarity and perspective to the thousands of indecisive thoughts swimming through my head when something is important. (Bradberry & Greaves,

Everyday we ask ourselves, “Did I make the right decision?” Whether it is in regards to family, friends or co-workers we constantly do self assessments. Self-assessment is defined as a process through which individuals gain knowledge about themselves. This includes information about their likes and dislikes as well as their reactions to specific situations. By knowing more about themselves, individuals can be able to determine the work situations and occupations that are most appropriate for them. There are several lessons that can be learnt from self-assessment in relation to individual decision making. This research paper will examine reveal the lesions learned from self assessment. We will observe of the influence of the American
Since you've been on a single project for over 2 years your major accomplishments this year are the extra things you've have done for Magenic and the people at Magenic. The highlights being taking part in the Women in Tech project and not only taking part in Tech Talkers but holding the Vice President role. You've done this while being a model of consistency on your project. We can discuss your project situation outside of the review process.
During the two weeks at the company, I spent at least one full day in each of the company’s various departments and participated in the company’s on-going projects aimed at improving the company’s operations. This gave me the opportunity to employ my skills of working in teams and develop my creativity.
My evaluation of my progress so far is that I am falling behind on keeping up with the readings and understanding the new concepts that we are learning. Due to not understanding the readings, my homework assignments’ grade is decreasing and affecting my overall grade. On the other hand, I am doing all the assignments on time. In addition, I am going to all the lectures and paying attention, while taking notes. I have also been noticing that doing class assignments is helping me understand the concepts better, since I am a hands-on learner. By evaluating my progress, I am aware of what to focus on to improve my grade for the second half of the semester.
This evidence shows employers the teamwork skills I have developed. The most significant being exercising the “give and take” approach to achieve group results, this means
I'm the Assistant Superintendent at a Gavilon Grain facility in the DFW area. Our primary focus is to provide local flour mills with grain to make their products. My primary focus is inventory management, usually directing three to eight employees to perform our version of inventory, cycle count, rotation, shipping, and receiving. It's exciting that our work helps feed the Metroplex.
Think about your own experiences with assessment. Describe a NEGATIVE experience with assessment from when you were a k-12 student. Specifically, highlight the REASONS you believe your experience was NEGATIVE based on what you have learned in this course.
~ I would attribute my professional successes this year to management coaching and/or mentorship from Adam Alonso. He has shown great discernment with inviting me to the table where ideas for new programing are explored and conversations on how to expand and improve OST programs are discussed. He has supported the expansion of my leadership capacity in new areas and challenged me to go even further beyond my most elaborate
During the project, I applied and enhanced technical skills and time management skills to perform on the company project and completed the project within the designated timeframe by using an organised approach and prioritising tasks accurately.
One way I will self-access my overall performance is by explaining my participation in English 111. My overall attendance I would say I was fairly in class. The only time I really missed was the time I got really sick and could not make it. I missed two to three weeks’ of class. My overall active engagement in class lessons I would say I did pretty good at. I would always ask questions for clarification. I would look for guidance to complete my assignments to the best of my ability. Being prepared for class was one of the easiest things to do. I would always have my They Say I Say and The Little Seagull Handbook books. I’d bring my binder, computer, pencils, and paper to write on or even type what I needed to do. I would have every bit of my information printed out and on my desk to have a hard copy of what I needed to look over. The area that I think I did the best in was coming to class prepared. That’s one thing this semester I didn’t have to worry about getting wrong. I would have everything I needed on the day of class. The area that I think I did the worst in was attendance. When I was sick and missed so many days, I got terribly behind. I barely got caught up on all of the work that needed to be done. The next English class that I take, I’ll do things a lot different. I will make sure that I will be in class as much as possible. I would apply myself more to the class and as well as my assignments that are given to me. I will continue to ask questions when I am unsure.
In addition to my academic interests, I have also developed a collaboratively effective work style. During my internship as an auditor at BDO
