@alisondooley
Finance student in Monaco with customer service experience, eager to grow in the finance industry.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated and customer-focused professional with a diverse background in both retail and hospitality. Over the past few years, I have developed a solid foundation in customer service, working as a Sales Associate at Brown Thomas during the busy Christmas seasons and as a Waitress at Sage in Midleton for two years. These experiences have helped me refine my communication skills, enhance my ability to work under pressure, and improve my problem-solving abilities. I’ve become adept at balancing multiple tasks at once while delivering high-quality service, always striving to create a positive and memorable experience for customers.
Currently, I am studying in Monaco, where I am pursuing my passion for finance. This academic journey has not only sharpened my analytical skills but also expanded my global perspective on the financial world. My studies have strengthened my ability to manage time effectively and juggle multiple priorities, as I balance rigorous coursework with hands-on professional experience. I am particularly passionate about financial analysis, investments, and economic strategy, and I am eager to apply these interests to a career in finance.
I am known for being detail-oriented, highly organized, and approachable—qualities that have allowed me to build strong relationships with customers and colleagues alike. My experiences have honed my ability to stay calm in high-pressure situations, whether it’s during a busy shift at a restaurant or managing tight deadlines in my studies. I am always willing to take on new challenges and adapt to different environments, and I believe these qualities will serve me well in a finance career.
My goal is to transition into the finance industry, where I can combine my analytical skills, strong work ethic, and customer-oriented mindset. I am eager to contribute to a dynamic team while continuing to grow professionally, learn from experienced colleagues, and develop my career in this exciting field.
