Stimulated by the experience of several summer jobs as well as the business knowledge I acquired in the college, I decided to devote myself in the field of marketing and finance. My ultimate goal is to become an outstanding and professional manager. To get well prepared for this goal, my career plan works in two folds: practical summer job and coursework. During my years in college, I show consistent and strong interests in marketing and finance. I took several business, finance and marketing courses in college. For example: business administration, financial management, international market, money and banking, cost benefit analysis and so on. These interests inspire me to pursue the career of a successful manager.
In order to get training in both professional and non-professional aspects, I spent several summers working in different commercial firms. In which, I was able to apply the knowledge I learned. Those practical experiences always drove me to reevaluate my ultimate goal, essential adjustments have been made to my career plan when I got some practical experiences in each summer jobs. In addition, I have always participated in extra-curricular activities. In the past years, I served as an acting committee member for several different projects of the Student Society of Public Finance (SSPF) in ABC University. Both my organizational and interpersonal skills have been significantly improved by leading and working whit those projects. Moreover, I learned to deal with people from different levels, such as commercial companies, students, faculty members and alumni. I am highly motivated to learn and to devote myself to my ultimate career job. With a lot of confidence and motivation, as well as deliberate planning, I am confident to achieve my goal in the very near future. If I am given a chance to work with the team in the ZZ. I am preparing to support and contribute to the team with my professional knowledge and skills. It could be one of the greatest experiences in my career if I have a chance to work with a highly organized team in this perfectly developed company.
Since I was very young, I have been very hardworking and determined. Therefore, I got accepted by the Taipei First Girl's High School and later by the Department of Public Finance in ABC. I joined three different clubs during my studies in ABC. Among them I served as committee member for the SSPE and I got involved in organizing several big projects. Most of them involved the participation of more than 300 people. These included welcome parties, welcome camps; farewell parties, bowling competitions, and Finance weeks. Having participated in organizing these activities, I earned a lot of experience in several different aspects such as managing, organizing, planning, and interpersonal skills; and making the right decision in strained situations, and under very high pressure. In addition, I deeply realized the importance of working as a team, and enjoyed sharing my ideas with other intelligent and stimulating partners in the team. Particularly working with partners who have very similar goals and believes.
Each summer vacation, I worked in different companies to gain a global experience. My first summer job was working as an assistant stock underwriter in the YY Bank. I was involved in the underwrite of stocks, information desk, and internal functions. My second summer job, was an assistant for Professor John James . I was responsible for typing lecture notes and exam papers; phone operating and information desk consulting. My third summer job was a managing assistant for XX Educational Institution. I was the leader of the phone-recruitment group and responsible for managing and monitoring the work progress of part-time recruitment assistants. This is first time I have been involved in managing people. In those summer jobs, I was involved in different aspects of work, from information desk, internal general affairs to managing people. I strongly believe that exploring to different levels of work may help me to cooperate and supervise people more efficiently in the future.
I have an outgoing and optimistic character, and good interpersonal skills. I am highly motivated and eager to participate in new tasks and challenges. Due to the fact that I have very strong self-fulfillment and self-commitment needs, I am very careful and deliberate when I commit to a job. With more experience gained and working in a good team, I believe that I will be able to become more sophisticated in taking various challenges and making the right decisions. In addition to my professional knowledge, I am always trying to improve myself in different manners. I am computer literate, and I acquire my computer skills through autodidactic trial and error. Furthermore, I always read several Chinese and English business magazines as a way to improve my business knowledge and follow the current business trends.
Overall, as I am very confident in myself and always plan for a deliberate career. I deeply believe that I am well prepared to accept any challenging offer. Noticeably, I am competitive enough to undertake any challenge if I am given a chance by ZZ.
