In my personal experience, I&#8217;ve had confidence in my abilities to fulfill every requirement outlined in job descriptions except KSAO&#8217;s required. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Per Job Analysis and Job Design lecture, KSAO&#8217;s required is used to describe the attributes workers need to carry out their work effectively. The attributes outlined in KSAO&#8217;s are knowledge, skill, ability, and other characteristics such as personality or certifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gsb.hse.ru\/pubs\/share\/direct\/408305373.png\" alt=\"How to Pass a Job Interview Successfully \u2013 Career Centre \u2013 HSE University\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When it came time to do interviews for jobs and internships, I focused on selling my other characteristics to my future employers. I felt my knowledge for the construction field wasn&#8217;t up to standard as I was new to the general contractor role. My skill was good and my confidence to increase my skill is a strong trait of mine. In comparison to other classmates of mine, I definitely felt separation between us when it came to knowledge of the construction field. Since my knowledge wasn&#8217;t something that was up to par yet, I knew my next best selling point was my character and personality. I spoke with great energy and presented myself as someone with great ambition and with a keen sense to learn. My strategy worked and I received offers for work after graduation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The challenged I faced with job descriptions was the feeling I wasn&#8217;t qualified in comparison to my classmates. I was able to overcome that challenge by focusing in on what my strengths are and using those to receive job offers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Job descriptions are a provided outline which detail what a person can expect to encounter during the everyday lifestyle of said job.
