I am an enterprising graduate committed to learning and developing skills.My key skillsets that will best suit the Finance sector are: -- I am Self-directed, energetic, and happily work independently and in teams. - I thrive in high pressured situations and have a cool head under pressure.- I have the ability to create good relationships quickly and enjoy working hard!- I have an entrepreneurial mindset that has driven me to set-up my own investment portfolio.- I am adaptable by nature and have strong analytical skills.As you can see from my Curriculum Vitae I have work experience in the management of people in a fast-paced retail environment. Both of these experiences will help me in my placement role within the Finance sector.Other key achievements to note that I believe are of particular relevance to my application are: -- Numerous awards in speech and drama have provided me with the confidence to speak at large gatherings and in my communication at all levels, being articulate and precise.- My interest in sport, not just as a competitor but also as a team player has developed over the years. I love making money. Not just for myself but for my employer also. I get a great sense of satisfaction when I see the positive financial results from my hard work. In terms of sport therefore, I also gamble in sport specifically American football and basketball, I enjoy taking the (calculated) risks and get an adrenaline boost, as my interests in the sporting industry help with my investment decisions.
