CAITLIN WILSON

Auckland,AUK

Summary

I am twenty years old and I am looking for full time employment in Gold Coast, Australia. At the end of August I returned home from working as a lifeguard and camp counsellor at a summer camp in the USA for 3 months, and have been working as a waitress since returning. I have completed my second year of studying Nutrition at the University of Auckland. Through my studies, it has allowed me to gain experience and confidence in working in a large team environment.

Some of these skills that I have learnt from my past roles and most recent job at a summer camp are;

  • Communication
  • Problem solving
  • Patience
  • Leadership Skills
  • Client service from my hospitality role
  • Time management

I pride myself on my ability to be a professional and an inclusive team member. I strive to offer great customer service to every customer I interact with. I believe that my skills, high level of motivation and a positive attitude, will serve me well in any position I undertake. In my previous roles, my success has been in my ability to interact and communicate with customers. This has allowed me to gain experience in communication, customer service and teamwork.
