Describe one of your strengths

What is something you have learned to do well (list a skill)?

  • I can... What is something you know about (list some knowledge/expertise you have)?
  • I know... What is something you have a natural ability to do well (list a talent)?
  • I am... How could you combine these to describe a specific strength?
  • Read through your Top 4 results from Pairin In your own words, what do these top 4 qualities tell you about yourself?
  • Do they resonate with you? Why/why not? How do they relate to the strength you wrote about in Prompt #1?
  • Challenges with strengths What can make it challenging to recognize your strengths? How can you work through those challenges? Do you ever see yourself overusing certain strengths? In what circumstances would you want to use them less and amplify other strengths? How could you adjust your approach in those instances? Strengths in action Write 1-2 sentences describing how you like to work (i.e., Do you pre-plan? Do you talk through your ideas first? Do you work better with deadlines? How do you stay organized?) How could you describe these working preferences to your project teammates? Your mentor? Your instructors? What would you need to be aware of when working with people who have different strengths from you? How could your Pairin results help you better understand your everyday working preferences? Continued growth Is there any particular strength you'd like to sharpen while you're at Turing? Any area you consider a weakness that you'd like to strengthen? What are some steps you could take here? How could you be aware of progress you're making?
