WORK EXPERIENCE AND VOLUNTEERING
Ticket and Social Media Rep January 2017 onwards
I am currently working as a club rep for SoulJam and LOOP, two events coordinators in Newcastle. This entails selling tickets and promoting online which suits my social nature whilst exercising my ability to pitch sales and technological skills with social media. I have to personally approach individuals for sales and manage my own ticket money; I am proud of this as an opportunity to show my independent responsibility and resourcefulness.
Odd Jobs June 2015 – August 2015
For the summer after secondary school, I completed odd jobs for local residents in my area; handing out flyers advertising my service. This gave me experience with essentially running a tiny business: finding clients, negotiating work and delivering it.
Charity Shop Volunteering February 2015 – April 2015
I volunteered at Sevenoaks ‘Hospice in the Weald’ Charity Shop for two months. Most of my work consisted of sorting through donated items and putting them on the display or taking them to the warehouse. This required my ability to follow instructions and take initiative during busy periods.
Decorating June 2014
For a three weeks I worked full-time as a decorator on a project restoring a gîte in the south of France; painting, plastering and wall-filling. This honed my skill to work to a very high standard, while acting under a considerable time pressure due to the scale of the work to be completed.

HOBBIES AND INTERESTS
Philosophy Society Treasurer
I was a member of the committee which organises all events for the university Philosophy Society last year and this year I am acting as Treasurer on the leading body of the society. Along with handling the finances, I also perform a lot of the secretarial work: organising events and promoting the society. This requires a lot of teamwork working with the committee, and also leadership to run the society.

Debating
In 2014 I acted as a Delegate in the International Model United Nations in The Netherlands, where I had to collaborate with other international students to create and debate our own UN Resolution. This displayed my ability to effectively communicate and work in a team with people from vastly different cultures whom I had never met.
