About me

Dear Recruiter,

My CV is evident of the fact that I am an ideal candidate for the role. I have gathered a range of skills and qualifications from my work experiences and from my academic studies which can be easily transferred here. Having worked as a Receptionist at Exposure Nails and Lever Medical Centre I have gained several key skills which I can transfer to my role here. I am fully efficient at using EMIS, Microsoft Office and Adobe. Other than the IT skills I have gained I have also learnt how to record and organise patients records - another essential skill which can be transferred here. From this experience I have also improved on my timekeeping, problem solving and I have also improved my customer service skills.

In my other work experiences I have collected skills which I think will be useful here also. Having worked as a waitress I have had to become more acquainted with my clients needs, I think I have developed my customer service and time management skills the most here. Furthermore from this experience I think I have learnt how to deal under pressure. At Cancer Research where I fulfil many of the jobs of a Retail Assistant and PA I have to also deal with working under pressure, this sometimes involves maintaining the stock room and shop floor or assisting customers and members of staff, it is up to me to take initiative and as always it is a top priority of mine to complete the tasks I do to the highest level of professionalism. One of the most important roles I have had at Cancer Research has been to assist the managers. Working by them so closely has allowed me to successfully assist them on the tasks they have to complete and also complete several of the tasks they have to do on my own. In addition to this I try to assist my managers by supervising other members of staff in the store I am able to assigning them to tasks they are able to do. I think this work experience alone shows that I am hard-working and adamant at taking on new challenges and completing tasks.

In my work experiences so far I have been part of a wider team, however when I am working as a Private Tutor I work independently. When I am tutoring it is up to me to make decisions and hence take initiative. Working as a Personal Tutor has taught me to prioritise my tasks, work under pressure and under a limited time-frame, adapt the way I approach tasks and people. It should also show the level of trust that is entitled to me. As I work with children there is a level of care that has to be taken; I have worked with my current employers since June of this year and from then they have trusted my decisions. As a Personal Tutor I take my role very seriously it is also my responsibility to motivate my students and encourage them. I have a responsibility where I have to lead them and guide them as well with the choices they want to make later in their lives.

My academic achievements will further reflect that I am a highly astute individual. Having previously been accepted to one of the world's leading universities will show that I am not afraid of hard-work, that I am determined and motivated. I think being a gap year student shows that I want to gain experience working. I will be studying an art-related course next year, and already have in place interviews with University College London (UCL) and The University of Arts London for some of their art courses. I have also been approached by the director a small media company where I have been asked to paint some pieces for them which I hope to start within the next year or so.

I hope that all my work experience, academic achievements and current activities reflect that I am the ideal candidate for the role; I look forward to hearing from you, Somshun Khan.
