Type of Preferred Industry
According to me the particular sector where I am planning to work with is the automobile
sector. The major reason behind this particular decision is that, in UK according to the current
trend of economy associated with the respective nation automobile industry has witnessed
adaptive and strong growth in the market. It has created higher and strong mode of job
opportunities along with the process of attracting major inmost investment making where this
has made them one of the global competitor in the market on all aspects. Automobile industry
sector associated with the market of United Kingdom has the most productive labor market in
European Union catering to adaptive export and domestic demand in the international market.

Professional Development and Skills in Goal Achievement
Some of the major personal development measures adopted from my side to introduce
adaptive skill and knowledge in me is, after attending several interviews and interacting with
many interviewers I was able to understand the key major requisites that are required to be
implemented form my side while working with an organization in the future. Being a part of
several volunteering activities and psychometric test has been a better learning platform which
can support my career in the upcoming times. Under this respective part, it is considered to be a
fact that the functional prospective that are related to the method of personal development
basically plays a demonstrative role in the placement goal objectives that are associated with the
internal well-being of an individual. Being moving in to a professional part of my life I have
attended several interviews and have made communication with several employers in order to
understand the actual expectation related to the work culture of organizations in the current era.
An individual who gives more importance to other domains that is apart for their expertise
mostly remains more sustainable in the market though achieving quick promotions where they
also become liable for organizational incentives and rewards.
According to me as per my planned placement goals that are associated with the system
of human resource management and the role of financial analyst, the activities that are related to
the system of personal development not only is a supportive platform for my career
development. But this also is an adaptive platform for me to survive in an organization with
innovative growth and development (Lester 2015). Basically as per the current market

competitive era faced by the organizations, they mostly opt to retain a particular individual who
is more applicable and have systematic quality to work according to the sudden changes caused
to the organization. As per my experience after interacting with an employer, I came to
understand that it is important for me to gain and acquire adaptive knowledge to work with an
organization at the time of unforeseen and unpredictable situations to remain more sustainable
and goal oriented in the market.
Personal development can guide a respective individual under the area of designing and
functioning as per their planned expectations through setting a strong goal within themselves.
This can be a better platform for me to develop my career under the area of the particular sector
opted by me (Bag 2016). The knowledge acquired from my side through the function of
performing personal development activities have helped me under the part of building adaptive
confidence through remaining more professional in order to develop strong qualities for the
purpose of career enhancement in the future.
The major strategies and plans designed by through the function of personal development
completely match with the respective industry and sector for which I have decided to operate and
work for in the upcoming times (Conine and Leskin 2016). I believe that confidence,
professionalism and internal skills are considered to be some of the adaptive career development
qualities that are required to be perceived by the individual to ensure better sustainability in the
area of career that are associated with the system of human resource management and financial
operations. This can make me completely goal oriented and prepare myself capable to work

Decision making skill for Placement goals
According to the operational aspects that are associated with the system of decision
making process, it is considered to be a stated part that as compared to the qualitative aspect of
decision making process perceived from my side, I believe that it is not the best part that is
required to be implemented at the time of performing in a competitive market like United
Kingdom (Ashton and Warhurst 2017). Making effective decision making function is considered
to be the most vital factor that is required to be enhanced by the individual to successfully
operate in the market. Every organization consist of numerous challenges, and under this
respective part a particular individual who has the complete potential to survive the particular
issues of the business is considered to be the competitive part in the organizational functioning. It
is important to have an adaptive problem solving and adaptive decision making skill in order to
ensure strong sustainability in organizations that are associated with the market of United
Kingdom.
In the current stage I have developed certain innovative qualities of decision making
skills in me where I believe that this will strongly help me in achieving the placement goals in
the planned respective industry which I have opted to work in the future. I have completely
designed myself to work under the market conditions that are associated with UK through the
process of enhancing some demonstrative changes in my previous decision making skills and

implementing new qualities and attributes in me. Currently, I have the capability to overcome
any kind of discrepancies that are related the operational functioning of the organization through
the improved problems solving skills developed through personal and professional skill
development activities. It has become easier for me to survive and operate according the
unforeseen and unpredictable changes that can be caused to the organization in the future along
with developing certain goal setting strategies that are required to be implemented in the internal
environment of the organization at the time when required. I have learned that, for a business
organization in order to gain better system of competitive advantage and sustainability in the
market certain methods and systems related to decision making and problem solving activities
may basically play a major role under all terms. Along with working with the current
environment, it is important for me to get prepared for the future initiative where this can make
me more advanced and competitive under the system of enhancing adaptive career growth with
the organization in the future. In order to adapt innovative operation in the international market
like UK, the respective professional and personal development skill along with effective decision
