1. CLAYTON SKORSKI
PROFILE
The most important reason why I want, and would be excellent at, this job is my natural
enthusiasm to engage with all things new, including people. I love meeting different kinds of
people and also feel happy and satisfied when helping them, such as selling them the right
product to meet their needs. I find it fascinating to learn, respect and experience different
cultures. I am, and always will be, determined to work to the best of my ability in everything I
do due to the fact that I like the feeling that I have contributed to a target, either in a personal
activity or when working in a group. I am keen to learn new skills and ready for a challenge; I
can work well as part of a team or individually. My previous work experience shows I am
persistent at tasks until they are successfully finished and I have developed good
communication skills. I am also caring and considerate of other people and will try to help
others in a difficult situation.

EMPLOYMENT
JOB TITLE: SuperDry (2012-2013) (Winter Position)
RESPONSIBILITIES: This was my first time in retail and I loved every minute of it, working at
one of the busiest and most popular brands in the world. I loved the satisfaction of being
involved in such a busy and successful organisation. I was not expected to work in one area
within the role but was worked in the many different areas within the store. This gave me great
experience and an understanding of how all areas of the business needs to be at the top of the
game to be able to compete and stay successful within the market. A few of the areas I worked
on were the Front Door, this is where I warmly greeted every single customer that came in, to
make them feel welcome and ensure they enjoyed their experience within the store. I always
went the extra mile and made every customer feel unique and important, such as asking them
light questions such as “are you enjoying your Christmas shopping”, and attending them
personally if they needed help choosing an item or help with anything else; giving them an

2. overall happy and satisfactory experience when visiting SuperDry. I also worked on The
Changing Rooms; as basic as it sounds, it took me by surprise how you need to be on the ball
when it gets busy, with a constant stream of customers coming and going it is difficult keeping
track, but I know I proved myself well and preformed at the top of my game. The Rail
(replacing the sold items on the shop floor with a new design) and The Stock Room, this is
where I leant about how a retail store is run behind closed doors, at first it took my breath
away, but over time I understood and learnt quickly how it runs. This is just a sample of the
activities I undertook during my time in this role.
JOB TITLE: Skorski’s Bar and Restaurant (2007-2009) (Summer Position)
RESPONSIBILITIES: I gained a lot from working in this summer position, such as gaining a
sense of patience, respect and understanding of the customer’s needs. If customers are not
satisfied for whatever reason I feel it is my obligation to solve this problem to the best of my
ability. One key skill I have gained is the ability to successfully complete a specific task in a fast
and effective manner, like collecting glasses, bringing meals to the customers, cleaning dishes
and helping other people if they are in need of assistance and mainly being friendly with work
colleagues and customers to create a happy and enjoyable atmosphere.
JOB TITLE: Richard’s Newsagents: (2005-2012)
RESPONSIBILITIES: I have gained a lot of skills from working at a Newsagents delivering
papers on weekends, such as good communications with customers and other co-workers,
working well with other people, working efficiently and listening to instructions carefully. Always
on time for owners satisfaction, putting customers first is the main target for me and if there
were any problems I would naturally want to find a solution.
JOB TITLE: The Co-operative Banking Group (2009-2009)
RESPONSIBILITIES: I gained valuable work experience from here and I am highly
likely to return because I loved the role and company. I love the satisfaction of
working as a group and completing a set goal. It was a good experience and has
especially enhanced my ability to adapt to different situations. It has helped me
become more open minded and has given me a greater perspective on the world and
the amount of different jobs/opportunities which exist.
