Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

One of the keys is to provide concrete, specific examples and details that show and not just tell of a particular skill or attribute. When possible, support achievements with measurable, quantifiable data . For example, how large was the increase in sales, the reduction in costs, the percentage of increased productivity, and so forth.
a . I am a problem solver. For example, working for Bobby Miller at South Pier Distribution, we were experiencing problems with too many backorders. After studying the situation, I realized it was because the paperwork went through several unnecessary steps. I presented a proposal to Bobby that eliminated much of the paperwork, and we reduced backorders by 15 percent.
b. As an assistant manager at Fashion's First, I sought input from associates regarding concerns and issues. I acted on suggestions and implemented changes when appropriate. I have also trained associates in policies and procedures. Additionally, I have preserved good working relationship with my team even during difficult situations.
c. In my junior year of college, I served as a treasurer for Alpha Kappa Psi. Here, I managed an annual budget of 200,000 . During that year, I also coordinated our yearly charitable fund-raising event where we raised over 8,000 for a local shelter for abused women. I successfully used my organizational and leadership skills to make the event a success.
