      This was part of my work experience as a student in my secondary college. During my time here, I learned the basics of computers as well as the use of MS Office and about general electrical components. It gave me the opportunity to learn valuable experiences about how to manage myself in a working environment and communication with the rest of the workers in the building.

      Shift supervisor

      I have recently acquired a job at Dick Smith Electronics as a sales assistant. Working with this company has given me the chance to be placed in a new environment for me, where I did not know much about most of the products in the store. However, I was able to learn and adapt a lot quickly when I was required to. I deal with a lot of customers from different backgrounds, languages and ages. I believe this is a valuable experience, as it further helps me with my communications skills and how to deal with a wide variety of people. Show less
