About
PERSONAL STATEMENT
An effective administrative professional possesses topnotch technical skills, overwhelming commitment to quality, ability to prioritize efficiently, excellent communication skills, and strong interpersonal skills. I am proud to have become such a person. I have had various work experiences and education that honed my capabilities and made me who I am today.
​
I do not cower when faced with challenges; I always try to find a way to remove obstacles or hindrances to success. I am in a province in Canada where career opportunities for an administrative professional like myself are scarce. It can be disheartening, but I have set goals that led me to pursue a career in the healthcare industry.
​
I am a recent graduate of Medical Office Administration at the College of the North Atlantic, and this program has provided me with the education and experience to make me qualified and competitive in the Canadian setting. I am certain that with my determination, I will finally be given the opportunity to showcase my skills and capabilities.
​
I have been exposed to various work environments and diverse personalities in other parts of the world. Every country and workplace have different cultures, I have learned to change my course of approach in various work situations. I have the willingness to change and improve my behavior in order to successfully build relationships in any organization.
​
I believe that the intensive training with the College of the North Atlantic has prepared me well for my chosen field. My passion for helping people and immersion in the office management side of healthcare are critical components to succeed in the healthcare industry.
​
Armed with all the necessary knowledge and skills, my goal is to land a stable job in the healthcare industry and grow with the organization I join in. I intend to continuously pursue education that will enable me to contribute to the improvement of extending quality care to clients. I am looking forward to reaching my full potential as I move ahead in my chosen career.
