technology such as through internet, email, advertising on social media networking. As this
report is related to selling myself to any company by considering cost, target customers,
objective (Hofacker, 2018). Action plan is to be made for deciding that what is to be done in the

MAIN BODY
Current situation analysis, strength and weakness
The current situation is based on myself as a brand. As I have to sell myself in the
marketplace to different companies by considering cost and budget that is needed to recruit
myself in the company. As there are different companies that are working in different fields
some of the companies may not recruit me as my qualification doesn't match their criteria. For
selling myself in the market is the difficult task as so many competitors are available that bring
barrier to sell me. For selling myself I need to improve my skills and knowledge that will meet
the requirements of that company in the market. My strength is that my team management skill is
good that will be beneficial for the company. So they can recruit me in their company. I am
honest and believe in work ethics. For companies it is necessary that an employee is following
the ethics of company so this is my strength and company can recruit me as employee in its
organization. Maintaining ethics plays an important part in the organization (Lamberton and
Stephen, 2016). As I have good organizational skills to take decision and solving problem so its
beneficial for the companies. My weakness is my communication skill is not good so companies
less prefer to recruit me as nowadays there is a need of a person whose communication skill is
good. Nowadays companies is hiring those people whose communication skill is good because
most of the job profile is for sales and marketing and in this field it is necessary to communicate
with people otherwise sales cannot increase and company can't earn profit.
