    I create relationships of trust and respect with clients by providing prompt world-class customer service. I increase customer satisfaction by providing customers with assistance and care. I maintain a high level of awareness to clients by meeting their requirements. I have excellent organization and time management skills. I exceed service level agreement standards continuously by responding to clients' inquiries in a timely manner and resolving their concerns. I have superb verbal and written communication skills; I am attentive to details with a sharp awareness of omissions and inaccuracies. I am a compassionate, kind and loving individual who finds joy in caring for others. I want to become a caregiver because in my previous experience caring for the elderly and disabled, I believe that I was providing needed support and companionship for my clients. I found my work to be rewarding for me and I believed I made a positive difference in the quality of life of my clients. I mostly enjoy the relationships that are built by assisting others.
