The position of junior manager of Zippo Clothes Store gave me invaluable experience in running a business. My responsibilities included ordering, merchandising and book-keeping. I also helped the manager formulate pricing methods and the promotional layout.

Project management:

My studies have given me invaluable experience in project management, on an individual and group basis, which has taught me to manage my time effectively. Coursework deadlines have taught me the importance of organising my tasks with the available resources. back to top
