Introduction
Employability after graduation and in the long run is a primary priority for the majority
of higher education students. And thus, higher education courses are empowering
students to build their skill sets, raise their knowledge of these skillsets, and
strengthen their ability to express these skills.
According to M. Yorke (2006) he defines employability as " A collection of
achievements – talents, understandings, and personal characteristics – that
laureate more likely to acquire employment and succeed in their chosen careers,
improving themselves, the workplace, the society, and the business."
Employability Profile
1. Skills & Abilities
Adaptability and resilience:
Rating: 9/10
I believe this is one of my strongest traits and abilities. I always
could be adaptable to changing environments and work
processes. My previous experience suggests that I adjust pretty
effectively to new circumstances. I worked for a company that grew at a breakneck
pace. We had 15 employees at the start of the year and 100 by the end, and I started
as a community and digital strategy manager and ended up as the digital marketing
specialist. Of course, adapting to changes in your working routine and learning new
skills on the job was not always easy. But ultimately, managed to do it.

Communication and negotiation skills:
Rating: 8.5/10
In my past work and internship experiences, I was able to develop
a strong communication set of skills, I can easily communicate well with colleagues
and workmates I've also always been able to get along with a wide range of people of
diverse ages and ethnicities. As for public speaking, it might be a challenging skill to
master, but it can be practiced just like any other skill.
Moreover, In my previous work experience, I developed a set of negotiation skills,
such as persuasion skills, active listening skills, and problem-solving skills.
I was able to come up with win-win negotiation with clients and make both parties
satisfied (the company and the client).
Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
Rating: 8/10
This is one of my strongest qualities and attributes, in my
viewpoint. I have always been able to keep my cool and solve
difficulties. I've always believed that every situation and the crisis
has a solution. Sometimes you just have to think outside the box to figure out how to
make things work. I experienced many times in my prior job and studies where it was
critical to always develop new ways to do things and solve conflicts. My specific work
tasks were to set, plan and implement social media and communication campaigns
and strategies for each client. So, for each customer, I was forced to critically think
through a potential solution and choose what made the most sense in that particular
case.

Teamwork and collaboration:
Rating 9.5/10
During my last studies, I have built great teamwork abilities,
I have an extroverted personality, which helps me to readily
adjust to teams and manage people successfully. I often use my emotional
intelligence and communication skills to build great relationships and networks with
my colleagues.
In my bachelor, we had to develop a marketing strategy plan of BMCE (Bank in
Morocco) and we were a group of 5 students, in that time I was responsible for
ensuring that everyone knows the main goal of the task given and to ensure that
everyone is assigned work that is tailored to their unique needs and knowledge.
Leadership:
Rating 8.5/10
Leadership is about communicating effectively and motivating
people without forcing them to do anything. According to Goleman’s
(1995) leadership styles, I think my leadership style is somewhere between
pacesetting and affiliative because I always take initiative and am self-driven, I like to
set high standards of performance and quality plus I like to get results fast which I
think is a bad trait because I kind of put a lot of stress on team members.
Self-management skills
Rating 9.5/10
As for self-management skills, one of my strengths is that I’m able
to manage work and personal stress, I’m self-aware, I make sure
to understand my own emotions and feelings and their impact on others, also I’m
conscious of my thoughts, feelings, and behavior and self-regulated.

2. Knowledge & Training
As part of my end-of-studies traineeship in Digital Marketing Master.
I joined Kalenya's team for 6 months. It was therefore an opportunity for me to discover
how an agency and digital business works, but also to try and experience the job of a
digital marketer.
My tasks consisted mainly of competitive intelligence and analysis, community
management, referencing, and content marketing.
This experience allowed me on one hand to realize the organization and the workload
of a marketing department, to enrich myself with knowledge on the field, to evolve and
improve my skills by working closely with competent people, and especially to know
and determine if marketing is the right thing for me or not.
Thanks to this experience, I was able to acquire new skills in different areas and
master different software like (Google Ads, Console, Facebook Ads, etc..) and also
establish direct relationships with customers which helped me to develop my
professional communication skills by participating in team-building activities to
enhance working relationships.
