Summary

I am in Transition Year in Kildare Town Community School looking for a part time job. When I am not in school, I do a lot of babysitting. Due to this, I am a very critical thinker and I am good at solving problems. I helped at a Parent-Teacher meeting in the school which greatly improved my interpersonal skills. I really enjoy working with other people.

I completed a block of work experience in Wigwams preschool which I really enjoyed. It helped my conflict solving skills as I solved problems between the children calmly.

I completed another block of work experience in Agape as a waitress.

This highly improved my communication and teamwork skills as I consulted with the chefs a lot and also the other members of staff. I am very dedicated to delivering positive customer experience through genuine hospitality.

This experience working in hospitality helped me to develop my interpersonal skills as I communicated with the customers and met all of their needs calmly and professionally.
