Narration and Persuasion

Narration

The first and foremost career goal that I have is more of a journey than a destination. This is because I want it to be a process of continuous growth on my part as well as growth on the part of the individuals and organizations I interact with. Upon completing my undergraduate course I intend to get into the industry and work for about two years before furthering my studies in a graduate course that will complement the area of specialization that I will have seen fit by then.

In the course of my undergraduate studies I have taken the initiative of volunteering to work in different organizations that I felt would benefit from my skills while I benefitted by sharpening them. These have also helped me to connect the theoretical materials that we have been taught in the classroom with real world scenarios where the circumstances are more dynamic. Apart from this I have always taken a keen interest in my career and this led me to join different student associations which promised to further expand my horizons with respect to the dynamics of the course that I am studying.

Another way in which I have been pursued excellence in the field of teaching is through having a mentor as well as a role model. My role model is my high school chemistry teacher who has always been passionate in the work he does and this left students like myself not just knowledgeable but also grateful for the opportunity to have been instructed by him. My mentor on the other hand is a friend of the family who runs a successful restaurant in the country- side. His passion for creativity and diligence in whatever one does are some of the attributes I hope to get from him and apply in my career.

I believe that I am the best candidate for this job because of the qualifications as well as widespread experience in the area of dealing with people of different cultures and communicating to them. The main motivation that I have to apply for this position is the high quality education that I have had the chance to receive in College. This has provided me with skills on how to analyze the context of an interaction and then device the most appropriate way forward.

If I get an opportunity to work in your organization I guarantee you that this decision will not be regretted at all. I will give my best as I have done in other professional engagements that I have had.
