TO BE COMPLETED BY THE STUDENT
COMMENTS / PROPOSALS:
Briefly reflect upon the
assessment, including ideas to
improve your employability skills
I work for a family-owned clothing
business, my main key roles are to work
on the shop floor and be there for
customers to answer and solve any
queries as well as serve them. I often
used to struggle with speaking to new
people however, since I got this job it
has allowed me to connect and speak
with more individuals which has
increased my confidence and has also
improved my social anxiety. I am always
on time to this job however, that is
partially because it is very close to my
home and the shop opens at 12pm, so I
do need to make sure that if I do get a
job in the future more further away I will
need to prioritise my work and make
sure to get there on time no matter how
far or even if I have to start earlier than
what I am used to. I did not rate myself
10/10 in any of the ratings although my
employer did, my reason for this is
because I think there is always room for
improvement.
