As a current University student, I'm all about diving into the fascinating world of human behaviour and psychology. It is something I am really captivated by and I am a bit of a nerd for the biological aspects. Previous employers have praised my ability to work efficiently but also meet deadlines. I can be shy at first but easily warm up to new people and would bring fun to the workplace! Having a strong work ethic definitely gives me a head start and I would love to apply my current studies to a job and also expand on my learning.
