Summary

I am a highly motivated school leaver looking for full time work with already developed communication and teamwork skills which is showcased in my previous work experience. I eagerly desire to develop my wide skill set as well as gain relevant experience to aid me in my understanding of the business world so that I can then use that knowledge to my advantage in order to apply it to the university business course that I will be pursuing for.

Skills

- Teamwork: Collaborated with my coworker in my most recent work placement creating a perfect partnership which increased the productivity of tasks completed

- Communication: Constantly conversed with customers to sustain their needs when behind the till in both of my last two placements which encouraged them to buy the products I suggested

- Time-Management: Always ensured that I was a few minutes early when arriving to all of my previous work placements so that I successfully avoided being late as well as ready to work right away at opening time

- Initiative: Persistently took actions that I was not requested to do in order to aid my second work placement such as moving the more colourful products towards the front of the business so that they would catch the eyes of potential customers walking by increasing the chance that they enter the building
