I have had several achievements along with my life. The first one was when I got my degree in Economics. After four years of hard work, effort and suffering, I finally could achieve my degree and become an economist. The second one was when I decided to move into the United Kingdom for a while with the purpose of improving my English level. I got a job as an au pair in a host family. It was a relatively easy experience if not for the language that at first was an impediment. However, after almost a year I managed to reach nearly a C1 level in English, according to the Cambridge exams (another one of the achievements that I am proud of). Within weeks of returning to Spain, I got a job as an export salesperson. It was an achievement for me that having no previous experience, excepting some temporary jobs during summer, I was able to get an opportunity to work in a great company in which I got taught some sales techniques. After a year and a half, I decided to educate myself in the statistics branch of the economy with the hope that one day I would get a job in this sector. Once I finished several online courses which included different statistic programs, I decided to return abroad again and find a job. With no job whatsoever, I came to Cork, Ireland, to try my luck. In no time I found a good job in the Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa in Little Island as a Meetings and Events Team Leader. After a few months working at the hotel, I got a job offer in the accounts department as an Accounts Assistant, until finally, Apple contacted me to offer a job position as Apple Developer Program Support Advisor, my current job. Overview, I consider myself as a girl determined to achieve what she wants, who overcomes any barrier that crosses her path, and who is persistent and productive in her work.
