I really Enjoyed my time at Sainsburys, Sainburys is one of 2 main supermarket chains in the UK, and is extremely competitive so it was my main goal to provide the best service i could to customers to ensure they enjoyed their experience. Being a food service assistant, i had what is probably the most important role you can have in a supermarket which is ensuring all shelves are stocked accordingly in order to make their store experience the best it could be. Others tasks i handled at Sainsburys includes.

• Greeted customers at counter to fulfill requests and answer questions.
• Stocked and rotated food items according to expiration dates.
• Maintained composure and work quality while under stress.
• Prevented food spoilage by monitoring dates, rotating stock, and following proper storage procedures.
• Learned other teammates' work tasks to train as backup.

From February 2021 to June 2021 i had a part time job at Trevose Golf and Country club locally to where i live in the UK. In this job i worked in the clubs Professional Shop where i was in charge of the day to day running of the shop whilst the main 2 club professionals were coaching clients in the teaching studio. During my time at Trevose, i gained a lot of skills in which i firmly believe have made me into the individual i am today. Organization was a big skill i needed at Trevose. Trevose is one of the highest ranked courses in the UK and Ireland so it was always busy. Making sure everything was set up for the day ahead meant i went out of my way to get to the course 1 hour before i was meant to in order to ensure everything was in place and ready to go for the day ahead. In addition, checking the tee sheet and ensuring those who needed golf carts had them and were ready to go. In addition to this, another key skill i learnt at Trevose was patience. Trevose od a country club as well as a golf club, so at times who have to deal with some challenging individuals. Ensuring i dealt with the situation properly in which it would reflect well upon not only myself but more importantly Trevose as a company was my main goal.
