Chapelhall,North Lanarkshire
Summary
I am 16 years old, I am currently a high school student, I have just recently sat my National 5 exams, with a view to continue on at high school to complete my final 2 years gaining my highers and advanced highers. I try to do a lot of voluntary work, and I have been in the girls brigade program for 11 years, in which I am heavily involved with various initiatives including helping my local community.
I am striving to work in a medical field, with the hope of being accepted into medical school to become a Doctor/Surgeon.
I have no previous employment history as I have only recently turned 16, but I hope with this CV, I can attain employment on a part time basis, to help me gain real life experience, and a positive attitude to work/life experience.
