About me
To whom it may concern
Please see attached my CV, submitted in response to your 'Junior Retoucher' vacancy, as I would like to be considered for this position.
I am aware that you are looking for a creative person who is looking to start a career in the Photography industry. I believe that I would be perfect for this role as I have built up a large photography portfolio in my spare time and am very keen to implement my photography skills within the workplace. I am currently undertaking an online Photography Diploma to further my Photoshop skills and to learn how to make the most of my camera's functions.
Earlier this year I went backpacking in South East Asia. Travelling independently meant I had to be self-reliant and use my own initiative. I learnt how to adapt to unanticipated situations and improvise new plans due to periodic travel mishaps and unexpected events. It was a great experience and feel I have gained and developed many personal and employability skills, throughout my travels, which I feel I could now transfer into my work life.
I am constantly looking out for new things to learn and experience. During my spare time I visit exhibitions and events going on in London, and have recently started to learn German. I have also worked at various festivals and have given out flyers in exchange for event tickets. I have learnt from not only my previous work experience but also from my travelling experiences that I would love to work in an environment that is exciting and constantly moving, which is why I think this role would be perfect for me.
