Communication
Working as the Service Staff, I provided high-level customer service and trained new staff members. My customer
service skills are above distinction as I always managed to become the best service staff. Through my university
studies as an architecture student, oral presentation is part of my university life. Nearly every week I have to do
presentation in front of the class. Dealing with new faces and discussing new ideas are not a problem for me to
handle.

Leadership
I was elected as the Deputy Head Boy when I was in my final year of high school. As during my university years, I was
the committee members for Malaysia Hall Residents Club and Sydneys Malay Student Association. As the Creative
Biro, I was in charge in dealing with most of the activities organized by the clubs. I had to take care of the main
concept and theme of each events as well as the organization of the overall programs so that it follows the overall
theme. Apart from that, I was the squash captain for the UNSW Squash Team for the Eastern Unigames 2012.

Problem Solving & Analytical


My problem solving and analytical skills had nearly been tested every day while working at KAZ Akitek. As a medium
scale firm, I had to get involved in all the projects despite my lack of experience in the field. Due to my impressive
academic performance and the ability to speak well, I had been given the responsibility to contribute my ideas for
the company. I had been working on the R19 Project, MEDINI and DRH Sales Gallery Interior Design Project. All of
these projects needed me to come out with the design solutions that could satisfy both the clients and the senior
architect every week, when the progress meeting took place.

Teamwork
During working at KAZ Akitek, I had been involved in many architectural projects which needed me to be part of the
team. For example, for MEDINI project which it is still at the developing stage, I had been appointed as the main
designer despite my one month experience. I had to take my own initiative to look for information from the seniors
and delegate my work with other colleagues in order to come out with the final design layout to be presented to the
clients. Apart from that, I had also been involving in the interior design project which needed me to cooperate with
the companys interior designer in order to come out with the final scheme.

Project Management
Being as the Creative Biro for MHRC and PPMS, I had to take care of the creative sectors for every event that were
organized by the clubs. I had to take charge for the tasks such as poster making, interior decorations, invitation cards
as well as marketing. Without good management, it would end up with a failure but tracking back my previous work,
they were all successfully done.
