About me
I am currently a Sales Controller at CarMoney in Dundee.
Left school
May 2019.
Senior Phase
I achieved Advanced Higher Business (SCQF level 7), Higher Business, Higher Accounting, Higher Maths and Higher English (SCQF level 6) and N5 History, French and Art & Design (SCQF level 5).
Choosing my Destination
I decided studying wasn’t for me after school and went straight into work. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do after finishing school.
Extra Curricular & Work Experience
I took part in additional work experience at a local accountancy firm. I worked part time whilst at high school learning how to speak to people.
Skills I've developed
I learned how to communicate with people of all backgrounds and ages. This will allow me to continue to further develop my career no matter where I go.
My Advice
School isn’t be all and end all. Studying isn’t for everyone and you don’t have to have a degree or qualifications to be successful. Qualifications and degrees don’t define you. They are absolutely wonderful to have but they are not the deciding factor with a lot of employers.
