1. Description
As a postgraduate management student, I have been very keen to take up the profession of a
human resource manager of certain reputed information technology companies as well as social
start-up enterprises. After I completed my post graduation in management, I enrolled in an online
course of human resource management which was deemed under the same university from where
I completed the post graduation. The course of human resource management has helped me
immensely in developing my aptitude regarding micro as well as macro management in the
context of undertaking small as well as large organizations. After completing the course, I
received a job opportunity in a reputed event management company. I have been enthusiastic
towards the new job opportunity which I have received and look forward to enhance my

The subordinates: The subordinates who would be working under my supervision and control
would be eligible to influence me directly as well as indirectly. However, it would be my
responsibility and accountability of their performance of their work as I would be the leader as
well as the pathfinder and guide of the subordinates during the time of operations. The
interpersonal relationship which is both verbal as well as non verbal can be implemented by me
in the team to the subordinates in order to communicate them with clear instructions about what
is expected from them and what not.
Colleagues: The colleagues are an essential part of an individual’s profession. Colleagues can
help each other in different ways through multidimensional approach. I can make an amicable
interpersonal communication with the colleagues, both verbally as well as in written form, with
the help of e-mail and Chat Rooms in order to enhance myself professionally in the company.

I consider myself to be adequately applicable for the post as a human resource manager in the
respective event management company I have been hired. The strength of my personality lies
behind the fact that I am able to communicate effectively with my peers, subordinates and the
supervisors. Therefore, I believe that in the respective job, I would be able to communicate

well as formal written, verbal and non verbal communication with the help of emails,
newsletters, meetings and conferences, I would be able to carry out my duty diligently.

the respective company. I have specifically chosen electronic mails as the way of communication
because electronic mails are not only time saving, but are also effective because a particular mail
can be transferred and amended anywhere and in any form within my capacity (Jones &
Woolley, 2015). Electronic mails also eradicate the problems of miscommunication as well as
incorrect communication inside the organization. For me, e-mail is the most important
communication tool which I would be preferring to use in my operations and functions in the
company. The feedback that I have received of taking the aid of e-mail is positive and I have
been witnessing co-operative and adjustable behavior from the colleagues, professionals, peers
and the administrative team of the company. With the help of the outstandingly positive
feedback that I received from them, I have been able to motivate myself more in order to provide
my best in my profession.
