My Ability Analysis 202202

Analysis of My Abilities 202202

• Listing what I can do

• Intention

  • Objectively looking at the labels attached to myself, I am definitely a “strong person” (?)
    • (In the community/world I currently belong to)
    • University, My Achievements, etc.
  • However, when asked what I am strong at, I can’t think of anything specific
    • In fact, I don’t think I have really attempted to objectively evaluate my skills
      • I did a lot of self-analysis on things like my interests and how I think about things during the US college application process, but I haven’t done much self-analysis on strengths
        • i.e. I analyzed the direction of the vector, but not the magnitude, so to speak
        • (In college essays, I just try to emphasize my strengths as much as possible without lying)
  • If I have strengths, I feel happier when I can affirm myself and say “I am strong in this”#self-esteem
    • (But I feel like it would be the end if I started affirming myself with labels)
    • (It’s a different problem from the worries of Impostor Syndrome)
  • Therefore, I want to re-evaluate my skills objectively by listing them again
  • Also, there are recent circumstances/needs
    • Internship 2022
    • It will be easier to introduce myself in new communities if I know my skills

• How to do it

  • Is there any framework for this?
    • A “framework that covers all the “abilities” that exist in the world,” is that impossible?
  • It’s easier to write about things that are objectively evaluated (such as AtCoder rating, TOEFL)
  • How should I write about “software engineering-related” skills?
    • For now, I’ll write down what comes to mind

• General

  • English proficiency
    • This is the most objectively evaluable
    • TOEFL score of 105 [Second attempt at TOEFL exam]

• Software development-related

  • Implementation
    • iOS development
      • I have been doing this for quite a long time, intermittently from middle school to high school
      • I can implement [/kineto/Kineto] on my own
        • Technologies
          • Implemented natively
            • UIKit
          • Backend: mBaaS (Firebase Realtime Database)
          • Delivery system
            • Used GCP to run nginx-rtmp
            • Received video from Zoom or OBS via RTMP, and delivered it to iOS clients using HLS
    • Algorithmic skills
      • AtCoder green rank [AtCoder 緑ランク]
        • [https://atcoder.jp/posts/676#::text=Rating-,800,-%201199%20(緑色%2C%20AtCoderJobs](https://atcoder.jp/posts/676#:~:text=Rating-,800,-~%201199%20(緑色%2C%20AtCoderJobs)

          • In workplaces where not many algorithmic innovations are required, they have sufficient algorithm design and implementation skills.

          • They can implement programs quickly.

          • They can implement complex programs quickly and accurately.

          • They can accurately construct complex logic in their minds.

          • They can apply frequently used algorithms in competitive programming, such as search algorithms, dynamic programming, and binary search.

          • If the processing is completed in memory, they can estimate the calculation time fairly accurately even before implementation and can accurately determine the need for optimization.

          • In this rank range, the strengths vary among individuals, so it cannot be said that everyone has the above abilities, but many people do.

        • However, there are gaps in my knowledge, so I seem to have forgotten quite a bit about algorithms
          • What was DP again?
          • Well, I think I can quickly recover if I review it
    • Writable programming languages
    • Ability to write code efficiently
      • I’m not sure how to express this, but I don’t have much confidence in this aspect
      • [Want to Improve Implementation Skills]
        • Well, it might just be that the point of comparison is too strong

• Academic-related

• Others
