Career Objectives
I am looking for a new career in one that I can develop new skills as I am going
through school. I am studying Residential Design and taking some computer clas
ses. Although my working career has been in a restaurant so far, I have develop
ed many different skills. Have very good customer service skills, following dir
ections, learning quickly and efficiently, keeping my work area clean and organi
zed, as well as just being a hard worker. I have always been the best at every
place I have worked and was very successful in training others to do so. I moved
up the ranks very quickly to help out management and to the success of the rest
aurant.
