Summary
Hello, friendly greetings and thank you for taking the time to look over my resume. My name is Austin and this is the section where I get to tell you about me, my thought process and what I am looking for.
To start things off, quite simply as of right now, I've never missed a day of work in my life and just like my attendance, I give the same dedication to my work practices and am a eternal student always learning, always evolving and ultimately strive to be the best version of me.
I believe past jobs and experiences don't stop there at the door, I'm capable of learning new information and am able to adjust well into a new life ahead, and as always, I do look ahead at the bigger picture, not what is just on the surface. I believe in business ethics and maintaining a good relationship with the company, employees, and the people on the outside.
I am looking for a new "home" away from home, a place to thrive in, a place to stay and grow with the company and hopefully make it a better place. All I need is just the keys to the city, and I'll show you the ropes, the drive and willingness to learn, and help make today tomorrows future.
