Keong's Self-Introduction
Dear Ms Lim,
My name is Wei
Keong, currently undertaking a Hospitality Business degree programme from
Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT). Through this programme I wish to gain
insight into the hospitality industry, gain relevant knowledge and broaden my
horizon.
Prior to
joining SIT, I graduated from Singapore Polytechnic with a diploma in Hotel
& Leisure Facilities Management, specialising in hotel management. In my
last year of polytechnic studies, I have had the pleasure of working as an
intern at St. Regis Hotel Singapore. During my time there I was a waiter for a
fine dining restaurant named Brassiere Les Saveurs. I was exposed to a
multitude of experiences, from delivering quality services to guests and
seaming the complex operations that goes on outside of the guests' view. These
experiences enhanced my ability to think and act with compassion and empathy,
to the best of my ability and understanding the position of others.
Upon
graduation I took up a stint as a waiter before enlisting in national service for
two years. I was appointed as the section leader, tasked to lead the team in
missions, overseeing their welfare and ensuring effective communication between
the section and commanders. Right before enrolling in SIT I also worked as a
mall concierge for JEM, which served as a refresher course before coming back
into the hospitality industry.
I would
describe myself as a straightforward person and a team player. However, I am
unable to convey my thoughts clearly through words sometimes. In order to address
this, I utilise writings and charts to help me get my message across to my
audience. Hence, I wish that through this module I will be able to present
myself in a clear and concise manner, only using visual aids to help my
audience understand complex ideas.
Thank you for
taking your time out to read this and I look forward to developing my
communication skills with you.
Yours
sincerely,
Tan Wei Keong
