Summary
I am a very eager and diligent year 10 student aged 14. I am dedicated to learning as I actively participate in discussions and problem-solving tasks. I’m known to be very organized and hands on. I am time-conscious, punctual and I have a good attendance record at school. I am currently looking for work experience that will help me improve my critical thinking, communication and collaborative skills. I am particularly interested in roles in retail, banking, interior design and law. For now, I feel that these roles are aligned to my strengths and will also help me develop valuable life skills.
