Social skills and competences I have been in a variety of social situations and have handled them all with confidence. Being exposed to so many different social environments has taught me how to appreciate and learn how to empathize with others. I have developed a great respect for people of all cultures and backgrounds.

Organisational skills My organization skills are above average. In my desired field, having these skills are vital and one mistake could possibly cost someone their life. I have always been organized and have found that things go a lot smoother when one is organized. These skills were greatly appreciated by all of my previous employers.

Technical skills and competences The majority of my technical skills are somewhat computer related, as I love to experiment with the different hardware. Being a legal assistant intern gave me the opportunity to work with copiers, fax machines, regulation typewriters and other office equipment.

Computer skills and competences I am very confident with my computer skills, as I am a computer fanatic. I enjoy working with and trying new operating systems, hardware, an software whenever I have time. I use the internet faithfully as it has helped me with my coursework a great amount. The internet provides all information needed when I perform research on various cases and laws.

Artistic skills and competences As an adolescent, I enjoyed drama and acting. Since then I have been a member of the Aspiring Actors Association (AAA), a drama club started at the university I attended. In my spare time I do improvisation at local comedy clubs and cafes. In the future I plan to set aside time for me to focus more on these skills.

Other skills and competences I have developed sales skills from my many part time occupations held while in high school and college. Here I learned how to introduce and display products in a way that would bring in more business and attract more customers. I enjoyed applying these skills to different situations when needed.
