John Toska
Sunbury-On-Thames
Summary
I am currently looking for a long-term stable part-time job which can work with my university timetable. I have a strong work ethic which is best shown by my commitment to my studies. While working a variety of part time jobs, I received the highest grade obtainable in every subject that I took in GCSEs and A Levels. I am now currently studying economics at UCL (2nd year). Alongside education and working, I am a big advocate for staying fit, physically and mentally, so I frequently go to my local gym, of which I have been a member for 4 years. I also would like to add that I obtained my driving license at 17 years old, something I am proud of as it shows my dedication and commitment to things that I enjoy. Overall, I like to think of myself as a very hard working individual who will bring value to any company or role that I may work for.

Work history
Festive Colleague
Tesco
Addlestone, Surrey
2025.11 - 2026.01
- I worked as a Christmas temp in Tesco's Addlestone store.
- I worked in various positions with my main role being on tills and self service serving customers.
- This job involved being face-to-face with customers and colleagues everyday which I thoroughly enjoyed, especially helping older customers at the tills to ensure they had a great customer experience.
- I find a lot of enjoyment in retail store jobs like these.
Postperson with driving
Royal Mail
Kingston
2025.07 - 2025.09
- I worked at Royal Mail as a postman with driving over my summer break.
- I was responsible for sorting and delivering mail and parcels, often. My days started quite early where I'd help sort 100s of letters and packages before heading out on delivery.
- I regularly drove and maintained Royal Mail vans, scanned and logged 10s of deliveries, and dealt directly with customers when needed. It was a fast-paced and physically demanding role that required reliability, teamwork and a cool head under pressure to meet strict targets.
Sales Assistant
JD Sports PLC
Hounslow
2022.10 - 2023.03
- I worked at JD Sports during my A-Levels as a part-time job.
- I was a sales assistant responsible not just for selling in-store products, but also maintaining high standards of our shoe display, regularly cleaning back of house, working with my managers to communicate any problems effectively and more.
- I would say the most valuable experience from this job was learning how to deal with stress in front of customers as I had to do long shifts during the Christmas period which was hectic but I coped well.
