Summary
Working at my local restaurant in the summer of 2024, while balancing my A-level studies. I was able to acquire valuable skills that I'm positive will benefit your establishment. I was able to adpot resilisance as I was able to push through two challenging responsibilities and being able to push through them. Working in a restaurant also boosted my self-esteem as I learnt several times how to complete a task that I wasn't trained for by being thrown in the deep end. On a personal note, I am a great people person, making me very suitable to work as a team and being a positive aspect of it, and not bringing others down
