Locating the Best Sources
In today's marketplace, the ability to support operational and strategic decisions with solid information is a critical skill. Finding information is not difficult, but finding the most useful, high-quality information can be. Locating the best sources requires several subskills, equally important for business and academic work, including the ability to search for appropriate resources, to evaluate the credibility and usefulness of information, and to synthesize information to make evidence-based decisions.
To locate useful information, you need to know what you are looking for and understand the questions you need to ask to get you there. The assessments throughout this course encourage you to build skills in using the library, though the Internet is sometimes a better source for answering certain questions.

BUAD 2000 VIPS Worksheet

44 Points
Introduction
The journey to a fulfilling career begins with self-assessment. In this assignment we will explore the four components of self-assessment: Values, Interests, Personal Qualities and Skills (VIPS for short). Self-identifying what our Values, Interests, Personal Qualities, and Skills are enables us to understand the “whys” behind our career decisions. Moreover, we are ultimately better prepared to respond to an employer’s questions about our motivation for pursuing a position within a given company, and why we believe we would be the best “fit” for the assignment. Effective resumes, job search correspondence, interview responses, or LinkedIn profiles cannot be composed/prepared without having a solid awareness of our values, interests, personal qualities, and skills.
Grading Note
In situations where more than 1 point is possible for this assignment, responses are evaluated using a scale of Needs Improvement, Acceptable, and Excellent. The scale will be 0 to 3 or 0 to 10.
Task
Using the BUAD 2000 VIPS Inventories located on pages 3 and 4, identify your top three Interests, Skills, Values, and Personal Qualities. List each of the top three below. (12 points)

Values
Personal Qualities

2. Select one from each category. In the space provided, compose a meaningful statement of how you became aware of the respective item. These statements may be composed like resume statements or in regular sentence structure. Consider the environment (work, service, with family or friends) and what you were doing when you became aware of it. (3 points for each of the four responses for a total of 12 points) Responses are evaluated on a scale of 0 to 3; 0 to 1 = Needs Improvement, 2 = Acceptable, 3 = Excellent.
1. Interest: replace this text and type your interest and explanation here
2. Skill: replace this text and type your skill and explanation here
3. Value: replace this text and type your value and explanation here
4. Personal Quality: replace this text and type your personal quality and explanation here
3. Now, select one of the four above, and compose a brief paragraph describing why you believe this particular interest, skill, value or personal quality would be desired by an employer. Approach this task like you were preparing for an interview. If an employer were to ask you to explain why your selected value, interest, personal quality, or skill is of benefit, what would you say? The more effort you apply to your response, the more you will learn about yourself and the way you will promote yourself to employers. (Use the space after the directions to compose your thoughts). Your response should be no fewer than five sentences, and no more than 10. (10 points) 0 to 4 = Needs Improvement, 5 to 9 = Acceptable, 10 = Excellent.
