Review the NICE Workforce Framework. Are there certain areas that you would want to focus your career on? Explain which areas would appeal the most to you and which would appeal the least.
Out of the seven categories of the NICE Framework, I would want to focus my career on the “Analyze,” “Collect and Operate,” and/or “Protect and Defend” areas because I tend to excel in those types of roles. I thrive the most in these types of positions because, naturally, I want to understand things to their fullest capacity; and it’s difficult to do that at times without performing some type of review or analysis depending on what it is. All of the aforementioned areas entail reviewing, researching, analyzing; then it takes it a step further in the “Protect and Defend” category with implementation being incorporated into the mix as well which helps to solidify/crystallize that knowledge. The one category that appeals to me the least is “Investigate.” I don’t believe I would perform at maximum capability in this field, even though it does involve analysis; I don’t believe the data aspect of it is emphasized as heavily which steers me away from it.
