· Which domains indicate your strongest employable skills (highest scores)? In what ways were you surprised by these scores?

· How have you developed these strengths throughout your courses in your psychology program? Give an example to illustrate your answer.

· Which domains indicate your weakest employable skills (lowest scores)? Explain why these scores seem accurate or inaccurate?

· Given the results of this survey, what is your plan to develop your weaker skills? How are these skills relevant to your potential career path?
