What are your strengths?
With having attended different schools, being at a boarding house, and my school years coming to an end, I would like to consider myself as a social individual and capable of interacting with ease, whoever the person. I am also bilingual in French and English, so one of my main strengths would be being able to learn, write, and interact in both languages.
What is the highlight of working for Go Beyond Holidays?
My highlight is being able to volunteer for a cause where one can enjoy teamwork, cooperation and the will to make the guests feel as confident as possible and have them experience new opportunities, all the while having a good laugh.
