Whilst I have been signed up to a few job websites I came across a job vacancy for a new marketing firm called puresolutions direct. The advertisement said they were seeking ambitious candidates that were after a new challenge in life, and have job oppurtunities in marketing and events co ordination. This seemed a great oppurtunity for me and with nothing to lose I took it upon myself to apply for the position.
I attached my CV along with the following personal statement;
I am currently awaiting my final results from studying media production at Coventry university. By the summer I will have achieved a B.A Honors degree. I have a great passion in the media and have been able to develop new skills that will help me with a career in the media. I am quite interested in a job in marketing or PR as I think this suits my personality perfectly I am a very bubbly outgoing person who loves meeting new people, working well in a team or on my own. I have some experience in P.R as I am currently a ‘mercia thunder’ my duties include promoting the radio station in events around Coventry and Warwickshire. Basically being the face of the radio station. I have also had experience of being an events co-ordinator helping put together a degree show advertising and promoting our final projects to the public and potiential employers. I feel this job would give me the oppurtunity to excel in the marketing and PR side of things, eager to learn I grasp every oppurtunity I get with both hands and make it my goal to be successful at every thing I do.
I look forward to hearing from you soon
