A self-development plan is incredibly important for anyone, regardless of their future profession. The interviewers want to know your plan and how attending Wayne State University will benefit that plan. If they are going to invest in you, they need to know that you also plan to invest in yourself.
Some ideas for self-development include:
- Listening to inspiring podcasts
- Attending personal development workshops
- Spending time volunteering
- Finding a mentor
- Hiring a tutor
- Learning another language
- Reading books on self-growth
Since the interviewer talks about continual development, both professionally and personally, be sure to provide an answer that covers both.

"I agree that self-development is crucial for continual growth and achievement. I am committed to investing in myself, and some of the ways I do this is by attending personal development workshops and meeting with my mentor once per month. What I have learned through personal development is to prioritize taking care of myself so I can be healthy to help others. I have incorporated a regular exercise routine and prioritize spending time with family and friends as often as possible. When meeting with my mentor, we discuss my professional goals and how I will achieve them. My mentor helps me stay accountable, and as my career progresses, I will certainly have greater goals to achieve."
