Working in the care environment for most of my life I feel my skills can translate over to many jobs. I am very honest and hard working and have always had an excellent work ethic. I am approachable and personable and I always go above and beyond with any task given to me. I follow instruction well and have always been a team player. I am flexible with working shifts and will always help where I can with covering shifts when needed.
If given the chance I know I would become a valued member of staff.
