I have demonstrated my ability to work in a team, especially during the Oxford International Model United Nations in which I represented Argentina in the International Monetary Fund. Together with three other delegates, I was the author of the Final Resolution which was voted for by the rest of the member states indicating my creativity as well as my passion and dedication no matter how large or small the assigned project is.
My commercial experience as a Marketing Assistant in Marketing Research Department of Greek-German Chamber of Commerce & Industry has enabled me to develop strong interpersonal, teamwork and creativity skills as I came in direct contact with Chamber’s clients, worked in groups in order to prepare the weekly Chamber’s newsletter and came up with ideas in order to attract visitors to the Chamber’s website. In addition, while working as a Sales Assistant at an automobile retail selling service and in Customer Reception and Computerization at a hotel, I have realized the importance of flexibility and adaptability in order to fulfill customers’ demands and needs as soon as possible. What is more, I am currently working at Heartbeat Gallery as a Voluntary Marketing Assistant managing the gallery’s social networks, performing search engine optimization and e-mail marketing tasks. In addition, I am currently participating in Leicester Award for Employability and Networking, a programme run by University of Leicester which allowed me to develop my personal brand and explore the potential of social media in improving my career prospects. Besides, I am aware of how e-commerce can be done since I have maintained a seller account on e-Bay and Amazon for several months.
