During this time, I was able to acquire and expand many communication skills. Whether it was putting myself in other people's shoes, dealing with conflicts constructively or responding to the needs and perspectives of others. Through daily contact with a wide variety of customers, I was able to build up a very good understanding of people and learned to adapt to the respective situations.
Adaptability
As a kitchen fitter, I was exposed to new customers, different work locations and working conditions every day. This diversity required me to quickly adapt my working methods to the respective circumstances. The ability to adapt flexibly to changing situations and adjust to new people became an essential part of my daily work.
