Dakota Smith

Georgetown,OH

Summary

Hi, my name is Dakota! I've been in the workforce since I was 16 years old. One thing Ive learned is that I would like to find a company that I believe in so I can give my utmost dedication to it. Its something my grandpa taught me at an early age. He worked on the railroad for 30+years and the railroad company always took care of him, because of that my grandpa was loyal and gave his all to his work and was able to retire comfortably with his wife. That story, among the many he told me, stuck with me all these years. I have turned down better job offers that pay a little bit more to stay with a company I trust, and I value that loyalty and I'm actively trying to bring that energy to every job I have. Being 28 years old, this is one of the most important things to me. There may be a gap in work history due to me being younger and only being at a job for 8 ish months. But I've had many jobs and im lucky to say that I currently still have one and have been there for 2 years, Im lucky to have them and I remain loyal to them. Im looking for a second part time job that I can give my all to as well!
