Some of my strengths include having an eagerness to learn, a strong work ethic, being organized, task-driven, and detail-oriented. These can be conveyed through my past job experiences as well as my current educational accomplishments. Some of my weaknesses, however, include being a perfectionist and over-thinking\/analyzing simple things. I am unique in that none of my past work is in the same field. I have a variety of experiences so I can quickly adapt to different situations with my many skills and abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-primary-color\"><strong><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Situation Wanted Ad:<\/span><\/em> <\/strong>My name is Delani West and I am a senior at Oregon State University (OSU) finishing up my studies in management and finance. I am looking for an internship or full-time employment opportunity in an HR position. There is my third (and final) year at OSU. I have successfully completed several classes in both management and finance, but would like to focus on HR because it\u2019s intriguing to me and I believe both focuses of mine can be applied here. My last job was a management internship that allowed me to learn how I can apply myself as a leader. I currently work as a tutor\/TA for the statistics department, where I spend much of my time assisting students with their homework and projects. This proves to be a great leadership position, as I am constantly adjusting and adapting to new situations. I am always looking for ways to build and improve myself, but I am just as concerned, if not more, about bettering the people and company around me. I am confident that my past work experiences combined with my current education have prepared me for a role in HR. I am eager for an opportunity to apply my knowledge and skills, while also learning along the way. If interested, you can reach me at westde@oregonstate.edu to further discuss. I look forward to hearing from you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Brand: As a potential employee, my hope is to create a strong and lasting first impression.
