1) Describe five ways in which you think you have human capital that is truly unique. What is it about you, exactly, that makes you different? Write this up in a detailed list.
1. I have a strong work ethic. I think a lot of people lack this nowadays and I take pride in my work.
2. I am very caring. I love taking care of individuals, I have a big heart.
3. I have interests in a variety of things. I enjoy doing many things and find I pick them up rather quickly.
4. I am very open-minded. I love to learn new things and am open to other peoples differences.
5. I am very adventurous. I love to travel and live different place.
2) Interview the five people who know you the best.
I am unable to provide audio recordings as I interviewed my family and they are in a different state than myself but I will summarize their interviews below.
Interview #1
The first interview was with my dad who stated I am headstrong, opinionated, and persistent.
Interview #2
The second interview was with my mom who stated I am strong, very smart, very opinionated and doesn't hesitate to say exactly whats on her mind. She said I am very generous, thoughtful and very funny.
Interview #3
The third interview was with my sister who stated I am hardworking, blunt, caring and outspoken.
Interview #4
The fourth interview was with my husband who stated I am hardworking, smart and I don't let little things bother me.
Interview #5
My last interview was with my other sister who said I am witty, determined and independent.
3) Reflect on the differences.
I think that the people interviewed represent who I am as a person but so does my list. I think it depends what situation you're in, people might see different sides to you. I am not going to act the same way at work as I do with my family, so I think these people would say very different things. I would not change anything about my list.
Hi Heather. I find your interviews and assignment to be interesting, as your interviews lined up pretty well with your initial list, which I wouldn't think happens often with this kind of assignment. However, you may need to have been more detailed in your summaries, and I am not sure if you will be given full credit for the assignment if you did not record the audio of the interviews.
