Therefore, work related to direct marketing is difficult and not good for my personality.

10.  The time when proved competence.   

During my stay, I faced many ups and downs. While I ever tried to work hard in order to overcome the issues. For instance, during my 2 weeks at the workplace, I find out an issue. My supervisor asked me that they had the burden of work today, therefore, I have to work till late night. I worked for more than 20 hours without taking rest and ended up the tasks.

11.  What kind of things do you worry about? 

I feel worried about the common trend of corruption in the workplace as people are not interested to work with honesty. Most of the time employees do work wrong just because of lack of their interest. In the finance department, such laziness and work avoidance behaviors create problems.      

12.  The time when realized a mistake.   

I realized the mistake in a number of times during my stay there. For instance, I misbehaved with a coworker (female) just because of my discriminated behavior. It could a conflict but she tackled the situation. While after sometimes I realized my mistake and apologized to her.

13. Biggest failure and learning

My biggest failure was related to a marketing campaign. I suggested the marketing management that they should use social media platforms also as the tumbler. We started the campaign on tumbler also that was proved as failed because of limited response by people. Through failure, I learned that before taking any step towards marketing we must check the trend of the audience and platform.

Salary is not much important for me. Something that matter to me is work experience and learning opportunities. While salary that meets the market, standard is acceptable to me.
