As a university student right now, I understand the value of labor Along with the ideas I gained in university, I also acquired specific abilities I would need to succeed in the workplace, particularly in a business setting Simply if we have only theory and no thought or practice will we be successful

I am increasingly suited for the work world
Trang 6CHAPTER 2: SELF-ASSESSMENT ANALYSIS
1 My fitness for a business environment.
1.1 Business Awareness
I now have more background knowledge and a broader perspective on business due to attending the Business Communication course taught by Dr Nguyen Thi Minh Ha and the Business Practice Explored course taught by Associate Professor Dr Tran Quoc Trung My current understanding of business is that it involves investing, creating, purchasing, and selling things with the intention of generating a profit Simply said, business is the organization of production and commerce for the purpose of profitability
I also enjoy doing business, so that's another thing about myself For instance, I like to monitor news about imports and export, domestic and global markets, and economic difficulties every day Additionally, I have a strong interest in analytical work, particularly when dealing with enormous data sets
1.2 Personal traits
Being an ambivert, I am not as assertive or lively as an extrovert may well be However, I believe that I have the acumen, calmness, and capability
of handling the majority of life's challenges I am not a good speaker; instead, I would rather listen more and then present my own points of view
In business, communication is crucial, and by keeping my composure, I can trust my judgment Furthermore, I am a young person who is steadily developing my own brand through social networking sites I pay particular attention to the social network LINKEDIN In conclusion, I believe I possess
a number of positive traits that are appropriate for the business sector, and given my enthusiasm for and interest in the sector, I am confident I can advance in it

Trang 71.4 Future Industry & Position
- Position: Chief Marketing Officer
- Industry: Media, Digital Technology & Education
+ I have a strong interest in the media sector and would like to work in a setting that is vibrant, open, and opportunity-driven Communication
is an art that connects people As a marketing manager, I not only grasp the benefits of connection but also have a vision for how to use
it to reach and draw in consumers
+ The current technological era, or possibly 5.0, is here Having a vision for this industry is therefore advantageous to me Additionally, data is essential to modern life since everything is turned to and dependent upon it As an illustration, healthcare, education, business, or real estate, among other things Digital technology is therefore a sector that has the potential to grow and is a worthwhile investment My experience in this subject will enable me to perceive the world more comprehensively and comprehensively
+ The last factor is education According to me, education must advance
if a nation is to advance So, if I work as a marketing manager for a company that provides educational services, I will concentrate on customer insights to develop a personalized roadmap for each user Additionally, linking consumers in a broad area of education will thrill and draw clients
