OBJECTIVE I am a reliable, trustworthy and helpful person who would thrive in a work experience within the
fashion industry. Multi-tasking and working professionally are some of the many great qualities
about me as I am able to achieve this to a very high standard. Being enthusiastic about fashion
and having a keen eye for the business around it, I feel I would be a valued member of any
fashion head office role and would face any challenge in a calm and professional manner. I am
able to push myself to work harder and strive to always keep my fellow colleagues happy.
Having worked in retail previously at New Look, especially at the hectic time of year that I did, I
believe I am able to work in a calm and professional manner while still completing all tasks to a
high standard. Working as a Dance Teacher Assistant has allowed me to work in a
professional manner with up to 30 students in a class. I am able to think quickly and resolve
any problems that I am faced with. I am also able to be kind and caring towards others, help
those in need and able to speak to people with ease in a calm and friendly manner. As a
former Avon Representative I feel I am able to offer advice and guidance to customers with
their purchases. I can also calculate prices and easily add up totals. Avon trusted me to handle
money from customers and safely pass this on to the team showing me as a loyal and
trustworthy employee. I delivered products to customers quickly and efficiently which led to
them regularly ordering from me and trusting my services.
