Career Reflection Report
Introduction
For any future employee, it is essential to have an employer who not only understands them,
but also values them for the work. however, for this, it is important to understand that the
employees should develop a certain level of clarity with the client to ensure that the
expectations are set properly and meeting them does not come out to be a challenge
(Mathur & Indradevi, 2015). Employers on the other hand should be aware of what
they require in their future employees, and what are they ready to provide to them in this
context.
This reflection report will discuss my career aspirations and how I aim to bring out myself to
my future employees so that I am able to ensure clarity as much as possible. At this stage of
life, my career is essential to me, and hence, I make sure that I am clear and honest about
everything to my desired employer, and I am able to present myself better. I am currently
looking for opportunities in the field of marketing and hope to make it big there.
The report will detail how I have managed to done this, and subsequent reaction from the side
of the employer.
Reflection
The following reflection will detail my accounts of my journey as an employee for several
employers. The reflection will include my personal analysis and career aims and how I will
achieve them in the longer run.
Personal Analysis
When I talk of myself, I prefer to use the adjectives: hardworking, sincere, analytical and
honest. I believe in giving my 100% to anything that I do. Since I have been a student, I have
ensured that I utilise my time well in learning new skills. The current world is extremely data
driven, and for a field such as marketing where my interests are high and deep rooted, this is
extremely essential (Masdonati, et al., 2010). Hence, I have not only “Self-taught”
myself these skills, but I also aim to keep building on them and being updated so as to not
miss a single opportunity.

Career Reflection Report
While most people call me a little too hard on myself, I know I am the kind who loves
working in a high pressured environment and I am the most optimum when I am entrusted
with responsibilities and I know I have to achieve them no matter what.
While I feel I am a self-starter and disciplined, I also know that I am the kind puts in too
much effort also. My knack for detail often costs me time and people. However, over the time
I am starting to loosen up a little so that I do not come across as too much time consuming
and as a tough task master.
I want to work on my strengths as a marketer, especially in the consumer behaviour segment.
I want to make sure that I am able to focus all my energy on creating the best customer
experience by my marketing even before the product is sold to the customers. I want to create
the need for a product more than a want, and if I am able to do this, I know I will be quite
satisfied with myself in the longer run. This is my ultimate goal!
Career Action Plan
I wish to pursue a career in marketing. Marketing is one of my favourite subjects as it allows
me to tackle real world problems which several brands face. The subject further allows me to
discover various aspects of how brand and products can reach out to the customers, what
strategies can be adopted and much more. The career action plan allows me to understand
the path that I have chosen for myself in detail, and further how I ca get on to becomes
successful on it (Accenture , 2018)
The career action plan for me is focussed on three main areas: skills, industry and growth
quotient. Marketing has a lot of scope of employment, especially for young and energetic
professionals such as me. However, I have to build my skills relevant to the requirements of
the market, and ensue that I am able to sustain them as well. The focus has to be given on
employer favourite skills such as critical thinking, lateral thinking and problem solving.
These are all essential to be a good leader as they add to an improved decision making.
Hence, I believe it is essential to improve and maintain the right level of professional
behaviour. I wish to the trajectory of a career go well. for this, I have to start with proper
planning of how and where all I will apply. I want to start with certain corporate programs
which take interns. If not then, I shall be working upon my personal contacts to get myself a
