Reflection

○ What type of people would be good for this job? Which would not be suitable for
this job? The people that know there electronics and know what a computer
processor or GPU at the least is when you should be guaranteed to get this job but
thats not all you need to know. The people that do not need this job are people
like staying at home and doing nothing and people who do not know how to work
electronics.

○ How does this job meet your needs and wants in 5 sentences or more?

This job meets my needs because I actually know how to program and work a PC while some
others may think its a good job its just not suitable for them. I also want it because it is just
computers I grow up fixing them and building my own. So the main reason this job fits me is
because it fits my personality because after the personality tests I kept getting recommended to
get this job so this is what I aim for. Plus I think if I got this job I’d be getting a lot of
promotions which is a major need. So now this job comes to be both a major need and want.
