Why should You hire ME?
Transcript: For anyone that has recently been in the market for a job, you quickly learn that your perseverance will be tested. To combat the regularity of the routine résumé, I thought I'd try something a little different. I promise to keep this under 5 minutes, yet I will still outline the strengths I have to offer. December 2008 I officially became a college grad, earning my B.S. in Chemistry with Business Emphasis and a minor in Spanish. What skills did I use? Time management, Organization, and Diligence I succeeded in academics while juggling two jobs that totalled over 40 hours of work per week. Clear Communication and Systematic, Creative Thinking As the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire website says, you can't succeed in science without these skills. As you can see, I've worked in hospitality. To start from the beginning: my first job was in a hotel, I continued working in a hotel to finance my college education, and after college, I earned a management promotion. So, you must be wondering, how can this experience help me? Basically, every job has the same goal: to deliver the best product, at the best value, with the greatest efficiency to yield the greatest profit. I can arrange all the pieces of that puzzle. PRODUCT With experience working in a startup business, I learned how to ask the right questions from the right people to brand the best product for the consumer. VALUE I created sales and marketing reports to identify price points that generated the most business. This information was used to develop pricing tiers that maximized business volume while maintaining price integrity. EFFICIENCY In overseeing staff, I made it a priority to pay attention to productivity. I organized standard procedures, wrote training and reference materials, and implemented tools that monitored efficiency. PROFIT I analyzed revenue and marketing reports to identify a place of profit maximization, where revenue is greatest and costs are lowests. To monitor the goals of this profit, I made a budget and tracked its progress with monthly forecasts. So, here's the 15 parts preparation... It is the combined number of years of experience and education I can bring to you. I worked very hard to finance my college education while gaining valuable work experience. Between school and work, I spent years working 7–day weeks, often times 16 hour days. How did I do this? Because I am achievement-oriented and just a little bit hardheaded. With every job, I've earned the same reputation: the one to call. If there was a shift to cover, you called Amber. If extra hands were needed for any reason, you called Amber. If there was a question about almost anything, you called Amber. So, why 100% Tenacity? I am determined and will dedicate myself fully to whatever task is put in front of me.
