Q

Introduce yourself p2

A

Although I don’t have much experience, I have spent a year in college, where I got myself up early in the morning, did my training, got the bus there and back, handed in assignments, did my own study experiment once which was fun. I have definitely learnt a lot of valuable skills there like time management, flexibility, following rules and procedures and most of all reliability. These are all skills I believe are important.
