I have worked many different positions since I have started in the work force and, although, they all are very different positions, I have brought the same qualities with me everywhere I have been. I am hardworking, I am a team player, I consistently have a good attitude and positive outlook, and I pride myself on the quality of work I provide in any task I am performing. My attention to detail, critical thinking, and flexibility, I believe, make me an asset to any business, company, or organization.
Very precise attention to detail in every aspect.
Extremely reliable and punctual.
Communication with other employees and customers as well. Explaining in detail anything that needs to be done or that has been done.
Leadership- I am highly motivating and know how to manage time and duties in a team setting.
Customer service- I have learned how to deescalate tough situations and change the atmosphere around the
predicament with thorough communication and
appropriate delivery.
Problem solving and critical thinking- I am always trying to figure a more efficient and less time consuming way of doing tasks.
