  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • The amount of new skills that I have proclaimed within this role is incredible. I understand how the business side of the company runs and how if that doesn’t work the rest runs behind. I know how to deal with issues that if it wasn’t for my training, I would have never known how to handle them.
