Summary
As a recent university graduate with three plus years of work experience, I am seeking a position that allows me to apply the skills I gained from university and work in an office job. I am passionate about animal welfare and have experience volunteering at a cat shelter to re-home rescued cats. I currently do part time work as a transcriptionist from home and have demonstrated proficiency in active listening and typing speed to meet tight deadlines. I am eager to jump-start my career in a role that allows me to make a positive impact on the community and contribute to the success of a dynamic and innovative company.
