Current Status and Personal Enhancement Information
Personally:
As you are already
aware, there are gaps between employments, this is due to
training and personal enhancement:
I had an
opportunity to learn a number of skills for my own recreation
and acquired a new hobby, four months intense training and five
more months of work on how to prepare Sushi and other Japanese
food professionally and having the pleasure of working with some
of the most talented and professional chefs in the West
midlands.
I then decided to
continue with the technology field and began with NS Optimum
where I learned the skill of marketing B2B and B2C in one of the
most challenging industries on the British market.
I also used this
valuable time to intensify my interpersonal skills and study
relationship management.
