Job description

Dear prospective employer, Sarah worked for me for a short while, however, in that time we developed a beautiful bond due to her gentle and personable nature. Sarah was loved by my children, who still ask how of her. They often say, "mummy, do you remember Sarah, where is she? ". I share this anecdote to illustrate the impact she had on them. Sarah is intrinsically motivated to succeed and prove her worth. Her most admirable quality is her tenacity to overcome difficult situations to ensure her success in life. I recommend any family considering her CV to meet her and see for yourself the lovely young woman she is. Warm regards, Sammy Pillay sammy@tpas.co.za
