I am a confident, hardworking, and approachable individual who has recently completed my GCSEs and now in college doing A levels.I am seeking a job role with a year of work experience as a waitress and as a retail temp worker during the Christmas season and this has significantly improved my customer service skills, communication abilities, and problem-solving capabilities. My experience has equipped me with the skills to successfully manage tasks, no matter how difficult the situation may be. I am ambitious and enthusiastic, always striving to make people's day through friendly interactions and efficient service. My strong work ethic and team-oriented mindset make me a great addition to any team. I am eager to bring my skills and positive attitude to a dynamic retail environment where I can continue to grow professionally and contribute to the success of the business.
As a temporary retail worker at Marks & Spencer, I developed strong customer service and teamwork skills in a fast-paced environment. My responsibilities included assisting customers with inquiries, processing transactions efficiently at the till, and ensuring shelves were stocked and displays were well-presented to meet company standards. I gained valuable experience in handling customer complaints professionally and working collaboratively with colleagues to achieve sales targets during busy periods. I handled customer concerns in a polite and professional way, always aiming to provide a positive experience. This role helped me improve my communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills, and I am confident that my strong work ethic and customer-focused approach make me a great fit for any retail position. In this role I also improved my time management and adaptability, as I balanced multiple tasks while maintaining a high level of service during peak trading times, such as sales and holiday periods.
