Receptionist/Administration/HR/Timekeeper
About
I see myself as a very hardworking person. I strive to do my best in any aspect of my life and my goals. I am a very loyal person who believes in achieving my goals and the high standards I have set for myself.
I love to experience new and challenging situations, which will give me strength, wisdom, strong will and most of all gaining knowledge to do my job the best way I know how. I see myself as a willing to learn person. I am also a very quick and fast learner, who will accept sound advice to achieve my goals successfully and honestly, but mostly to do the job at hand.
I hope you find my curriculum in good faith. As you can see, I worked at different places for a while, I need some consistency in my life where my career is concerned. I do believe that this will be for me.
So I pray that you will grant me this opportunity.
