DISC


DISC is a test about personal behavior and also a good way to learn about us. While I was taking the test I found very difficult to choose only one answer since there were at least two that were related to me but everything worked well. The final result is conscientiousness (Cd) which means “it emphasis on working conscientiously within existing circumstances to endure quality and accuracy.” I totally agree with the result. I am detail oriented and I always make sure that everything I present is neat. I’m majoring in accounting and I think this test goes it right. An accountant has to be detail oriented and analytical because we always have to ask ourselves the question why? Are the books balance if not why? I think I can be a good manager. I like to follow rules and standards. I take my time to make decisions I over think.  In my job I tend to find mistakes in merchandise display that no even my manager notice.  In many cases I think that if I am not around my coworkers can make many mistakes that I have to correct. For this reason my manager depends on me to find mistakes.  In addition, I think that this test is very important to determine the type of manager or leader a person could be because it helps understand others the environment in which we work.

THE POWE OF VISION


Four-years ago I didn’t know that I would be living in the United States and that I would have so many opportunities to grow professionally. My main goals after graduating from Baruch College are to work in a medium CPA firm, to study fashion design and get a degree, to became an entrepreneur creating a small company that will design wedding dresses and to apply my accounting experience in this company and finally but not least to have a family in my own. 
First of all, I wanted to be an accountant since I started high school. I am accomplishing this goal, and I would like to work in a medium CPA firm. To accomplish this goal I am applying for an internship and I will probably start in the summer.

Third, I would love to have a family of my own, but I want to have economic stability to be able to handle all the responsibilities that one-day will come.
In conclusion, I know that there are many difficulties that will be trying to accomplish my goal but I am learning how to achieve every goal.
