Skills

  • Over the years working at Canada Post, I have had a chance to develop and refine various organizational and interpersonal skills The main part of the job requires me to use my time efficiently to organize items that I have that day, including ones that will require personal communication (ie registered items) I highly value the position I have been entrusted with to take care of items people are expecting
  • I have had the chance to train new people over the years, which allowed me to teach them from my experience, as well as being a reminder to keep my own skills sharp
  • Recently I had the opportunity to be a part of the "route restructure" process, which involves changing the routes to reflect new development and needs of customers
