"My greatest strengths are my leadership, communication, and conflict resolution skills. I developed these skills in high school as the class president and team captain of my volleyball team. I have further developed these skills in college as the captain of the debate team. I was elected to these positions for my ability to lead a group of people to accomplish and achieve the same goals. I enjoy leading others by example, and I look forward to bringing these skills to your company if I am chosen for the position."

I have strong attention to detail. I have demonstrated this during my university degree in which I had a lot of hands-on laboratory experience in which you must be accurate in your measurements and calculations. I have good communication skills. During my time as a catering assistant at the hospital, I have worked with all different types of patients and healthcare workers in different areas of the hospital. I also have good organization skills which I showed during my time at university meeting different deadlines and carrying out experiments.
