Employment History
Nov 2006 Harrison Building
Downtown City
I wanted to get to experience the building and construction industry when I
went on my Year 13 work experience, so I was very glad when Harrison
Building agreed to give me a work experience placement for a week. I
spent this time assisting a qualified builder on site, I helped out with general
labouring tasks and I was also given the chance to spend some time in the
site office assisting the Construction Site Manager with invoices and
general data entry. This helped me decide that I wanted to work in the
building and construction industry and to have a career goal of becoming a
Construction Site Manager.

Jan 2005 – Dec 2006 Earl’s Fish and Chips

Downtown City
I worked for Earl’s Fish and Chips part time while studying at high school. I
helped out at weekends and during school holidays. My main duties were
serving customers, cooking food and doing odd jobs at the request of the
owner.

Interests
 I am very interested in rugby, and have played since I was seven years old
 I like to spend time with my friends and family
 I also like to spend my free time practising guitar
