I believe my most recent and unforgettable interpersonal/social interaction would be my interaction with the oral maxillofacial surgeon I shadowed and his colleague. This interaction looked amazing to me. In this interaction, I was meeting real surgeons and medical professionals and I needed to come off strong and passionate to be there while also thankful for the opportunity they had given me to experience and learn more about the medical field. The professionals noticed how interested I was and how well my social skills were, which they said will help me in the medical field a great deal.
This interaction happened to be a positive interaction that is unforgettable and memorable to me because it emphasizes who I am and how I can come off to other people in a professional work field.
My strength when it comes to social interaction is employing good manners and expressing myself thoroughly. I believe a great component in social interaction is having respect for the other person which I believe I execute well. A limit or weakness of mine could be my attention span when I come across a topic with another person that does not peak my interest. I try to give the other person my undivided attention but sometimes I physically can not control my attention span. This is definitely an aspect I need to spend some time working on.
