Summary

Through all the jobs I have held, I have learned the importance of communication skills, how to get jobs done efficiently, and how to communicate and work with people from all backgrounds. Being an Infantryman in the Army, I am expected to have excellent comprehension skills in both reading and writing, be most attentive, and follow through to the best of my abilities with all tasks. Through the retail and trade positions I have held, I have learned people skills and how to demonstrate outstanding customer service. These jobs have taught me how to complete assignments individually or with a team. I also developed skills in working well under pressure and following the rules and regulations of a job.
