Example of Personal Brand Statement
Hello,
My name is Megan Smith. I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from National American University. While in school, I worked full time as a receptionist at Verifications, a human resource call center in my area. I enjoyed assisting everyone in the office and always went above and beyond to meet customer expectations. I gained great experience by helping clients resolve their complaints or directing them to the person who could assist them. I also tutored students at NAU in the Business Statistics class. I really enjoyed statistics and learning all of the functions of operating a business. I am a hard worker with great customer service skills. I am well educated and have the ability to communicate effectively with people. With my qualifications and background, I feel I would be a great fit for your company!
Respectfully,
Megan Smith
