I am currently a second year undergraduate from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and I major in the Life Sciences with concentration in Biomedical Sciences. I have great interest in the field of Pharmaceutical Sales.
I used to work part time as an Administrative assistant and Customer Service officer at the American International Assurance. I was in charge of all administrative duties and helped organise activities for my company. As a Customer Service officer, I also handled client’s requests and complaints. These work experiences has helped improve my organisational skills and also heightened my interpersonal skills. Being a part time tutor has also taught me to be a patient and responsible individual.
As a person, I love to take part in a variety of activities to improve myself as a person and to gain experience in every possible aspect. In University, I was an assistant orientation group leader during the Science orientation. Back in Victoria Junior College, I was an overall vice captain in Judo and I represented school at the inter school national competitions. Both experiences honed my leadership skills and taught me how to work effectively in a team. I also represented school in the Singapore Science and Engineering Fair and presented a research project at the fair to many professors and directors. This event greatly improved my presentation skills. I also took part in a course in professional communication and learnt many skills relevant to work.
I am someone who loves challenges and constantly seek excellence in everything I do. I hope that the skills I have picked up from work and school will be beneficial to my career in the future.
