Summary

I am an 18 year old male in my first year out of high school and am looking to kickstart my career in an area related to cars and sales. I enjoy learning about cars as well as doing them up in my own time. This, in combination with my extroverted nature made the prospect of working at a place so relevant to my interests, very intriguing. I am a very driven individual who is keen to learn and put in the effort that is required to be a worthwhile employee. I see working at Turners Auto Retail Division as an amazing opportunity to kickstart my career in a well established business that, from what I understand, has a great company culture. I would greatly appreciate you taking the time to review my application and hope to hear back from you in due course.
