Service Industry (Security/Emergency Response) Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I majored in physical education and have been working in my field for a long time. I wanted to use my major to further my studies, so I also studied rehabilitation for a long time. However, three years ago, I had a chance to experience security work and realized that it suited me, so I decided to change careers. I applied for a dispatch position at your company because I wanted to experience various jobs within a security company. Although I will start as a contract emergency response officer, I am confident in my dreams and vision, and I am determined to work hard to become a leading security professional.
I lived a sincere life, receiving scholarships throughout my college years. During school vacations, I participated in a language study program. I believe that the language skills I have diligently acquired will ultimately give me a competitive edge when considering my long-term future. In addition, I believe that it is not simply my language skills that set me apart, but also my efforts to improve myself and my spirit of challenge. My studies and activities in areas such as rehabilitation therapy, judo, taekwondo, and volunteer work are proof of how proactive I am and are strengths that I can confidently highlight.
Having always worked on self-improvement and lived a sincere life, I am confident that I am a talented individual who can contribute to the growth of your company. In particular, I believe that I can take pride in working for a sound and challenging company, and therefore I would like to entrust my dreams to your company. The security market is currently growing along with IT technology and advanced equipment. Within this market, I will become a talented individual who can grow ahead of others through continuous self-improvement and learning. Thank you very much.
Thank you.

 

 

Service Industry (Department Store) Self-Introduction Letter

Hello, my name is ○○○, and I am an applicant who never settles for the status quo and always strives to improve.
When I was a child, whenever I went shopping with my mother, the world of department stores was different from my everyday life.
The friendly service, elegant atmosphere, and meticulously displayed store layout, where all the stores seemed to be arranged in a single system, filled my young heart with a sense of awe.
It looked like a kingdom, and I dreamed of working in this sanctuary when I grew up.
It may seem like a childish dream, but it remained in my heart as a burning passion that led me to my current path.
However, I did not limit myself to department store-related services, believing that I could only develop comprehensive judgment and capabilities by interacting with a wide variety of customers in many different fields.
In addition, I have acquired practical knowledge and communication skills, and I have been looking forward to the day when I can fully demonstrate my potential, which I have cultivated over many years, at your company.
I will work with humility and look forward to the day when I can fully blossom at your company’s stable foundation. Thank you very much.

 

 

Service Position (Barista) Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
People often tell me that I smell like coffee. I work at a coffee shop for eight hours a day, so I have come to smell like coffee. I am proud of this aroma. Now, cafes are not just places to drink beverages, but also places to relax and enjoy the aroma of coffee. I feel proud that this aroma comes from me, like a badge of honor. That is why I want to develop better coffee flavors and aromas and share them with others. That is why I am applying to be a barista at your company.
Through club activities and volunteer work at a nursery school, I learned how to form bonds with my seniors and peers, and I also worked on republishing a newsletter while serving as president and vice president. Through these experiences, I learned the role and responsibilities of a leader and realized my social responsibility to live in harmony with others. In addition, language training helped me develop the ability to adapt to unfamiliar environments and broadened my horizons. In particular, while backpacking through eight European countries, I realized the meaning of the saying, “It is not a sin to not know something, but it is a sin not to ask about what you do not know.”
My motto is, “Even if the road is not lined with flowers, I will embroider it with flowers.” I hope that my values, which are to always strive to become a flower-like existence necessary for a society where people live together, without being ashamed to ask questions and learn what I do not know, will be of great help to your company. I will always strive to improve myself and become a source of healing for your company.
Thank you very much.

 

 

Customer Support Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I have been majoring in mechanical engineering since high school. I was confident in my practical skills because I had been studying my major since high school, but my grades were not very good after entering university, so I worked hard to fill in the gaps. I decided to focus on my major studies while I was in university and create opportunities for my future. To that end, I studied my major more diligently than anyone else and took on many challenges by forming an academic club within my department. At first, I had many shortcomings and was unable to see results quickly, but by the time I graduated from university, I believe I had grown enough to be able to give expert advice in my field. Compared to when I first entered university, when I lacked confidence due to my shortcomings, I have become a confident person through my passionate studies and efforts to acquire specialized knowledge. That is why I can strongly recommend myself to your company.
My proactive and challenging personality has allowed me to expand not only my knowledge in my major but also my interpersonal skills with my unique courageous spirit. Encountering new fields, exploring realistic possibilities based on that knowledge, and working with others to achieve our dreams are the things I value most in life and enjoy doing the most. I am confident that I can perform customer support duties at your company because I believe that I am more proactive and have better interpersonal skills than anyone else in my field.
I applied for your customer support position because I believe it is a field where I can utilize both my major and communication skills. In particular, your company is growing into a global specialist, with more than 80% of its sales coming from exports to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. I have acquired language skills through consistent study during my college years, and with my unique spirit of challenge, I would like to take the lead in your company’s global culture. I will become a member of your company who never neglects learning and growth, just as I have done until now.
Thank you very much.

 

 

Customer Service Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
In addition to my major in business administration, I studied marketing, e-commerce, and finance, which helped me develop a macro perspective. I also obtained qualifications as an international trade specialist and financial planner. Through a six-month trip around the world, I saw many hopes and disappointments along the way, which helped me develop a global mindset. I believe that diverse studies and experiences give you the ability to listen to others. That is why I became interested in your company’s customer service work, and I am applying for this position because I am confident that I can do your work well based on my diverse experiences.
I have focused on improving my Korean language skills. Although foreign language skills are important, I believe that Korean language skills should not be limited to simply speaking and listening, but should also include the ability to accurately judge personal and social issues and listen to others. In order to properly acquire these skills, I believe that a high level of Korean language proficiency is necessary, so I obtained a Level 2 Korean Language Proficiency Certificate. After that, I spent eight months in the US to improve my English, and I also gained practical experience through a six-month internship in customer service.
I would like to contribute all of my extensive experience, communication skills, and practical experience to your company. As one of your best customer service representatives, I will always put myself in the customer’s shoes and do my best to ensure smooth communication with the company.
Thank you very much.

 

 

Ship Technology Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I grew up with a father who often traveled around the world on ships. It was difficult to form a close relationship with my father, whom I only saw once every few months, but my mother always told me how wonderful and meaningful his work was. As a result, I naturally came to respect my father, and growing up under his love and guidance, I decided that I wanted to do something related to ships like him. I also decided that I wanted to be a person who feels a sense of responsibility and cares for those around me, just like my father. So, in order to become like my father, I studied ships and diligently collected related photos and models. As I did so, I naturally learned about the principles, functions, development, and various uses of ships that make life and activities at sea possible, and I became motivated to take on work related to ships.
I am passionate about what I truly desire and dream of, and I am determined to do my best to achieve it. Rather than the vision, stability, and prospects of the job itself, I wanted to pursue a field that I was passionate about, and since I had been interested in ships since I was a child, I naturally wanted to work in a field related to ship technology. In addition, I am an active person, so I was able to pursue my dream with determination, and that is why I decided to apply for a ship engineering position at your company.
I understand that your company prefers talented individuals who are enthusiastic about the shipbuilding business and have a romantic view of the sea. I am confident that I am the perfect fit for your company. With my dream of sailing across the vast ocean and my determination to achieve my goals, I believe that I am a talented individual who can contribute to your company with passion. I will learn ship technology with enthusiasm and become a member of your company who can deliver high performance in ship technology-related work. Thank you very much.

 

 

Customer Service Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I have been a member of the track and field club since I was young, which helped me build up my physical strength and become a friendly person through interacting with many friends. In addition, to overcome my somewhat introverted personality, I worked part-time in the service industry, such as waitering, fast food restaurants, and supermarkets, where I developed my ability to interact with people from various backgrounds. In particular, after entering university, I became the leader of a mountain climbing club, which helped me develop my communication skills. I have always strived to improve myself and develop a positive and proactive mindset, which has allowed me to express my individuality in any situation.
I applied for the customer satisfaction department at your company. I believe that my meticulous personality will be very helpful in this department. In particular, the communication skills I have developed through various part-time jobs and as a club leader will help me get along with many people and satisfy customers. In addition, I believe that marketing is an essential part of service. When I was a sophomore in college, I led a team as a team leader for a five-month marketing contest. With my major in marketing, I was able to win an award with a novel theme and creative ideas, which I believe is a testament to my marketing skills.
I believe that your company is the industry leader in Korea, providing fast and accurate services and holding the largest share of the domestic parcel delivery market. I am applying for this position because I would be honored to work for such a company. I will learn my job with an open mind and demonstrate my marketing knowledge, part-time work experience in customer service, and communication skills. I will work with passion.
Thank you.

 

 

Public Relations/Marketing Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I studied business administration for four years and was actively involved in club activities. In particular, through my participation in an advertising club and various social activities, I became very interested in corporate public relations and corporate image planning. I believe that corporate public relations is the beginning of a company’s future and potential. To perform this valuable work, I have actively worked to develop my global competencies, such as language and cultural skills. In particular, my participation in various contests related to public relations and advertising, and the results I achieved, are my greatest competitive advantages.
I once worked in public relations for an indie band through an acquaintance. It was a request from the team I belonged to after I achieved good results in a contest through my advertising club activities. Through this experience, I was able to gain work experience and directly experience the reality of public relations. In particular, the indie market has characteristics that differ from the regular market and the values of existing consumer groups, so a more detailed public relations and marketing strategy was necessary. Through active market research, I was able to understand the reality of the indie market and develop a promotional marketing strategy that broke the stereotypes people had about the indie market. As a result, we were able to promote the band through a new album promotion strategy and achieve good results. I am very proud of this experience, where I worked hard to analyze the market and achieve results.
I have proven my sincerity by winning three scholarships, demonstrated my leadership as the president of a club, and proven my competitiveness through contests and indie band promotion work. Based on these qualifications, I believe that I have the potential to play a greater role as a public relations and marketing specialist at your company. I will continue to develop myself as a public relations and marketing talent at your company through endless self-improvement. Thank you very much.

 

 

Self-introduction for overseas work

Hello, my name is ○○○.
“Nothing is impossible.” This one line sums up my outlook on life. This is because I have a personality that allows me to focus intensely on achieving what I want when I set my mind to it. In addition, rather than following in the footsteps of others, I strive to use their paths as a compass to forge my own way forward. I believe that this personality will help me in my work overseas.
Through club activities with friends from various countries aimed at improving our language skills, I broadened my horizons and began to dream of a wider world. Therefore, after graduating from the College of Business Administration, I studied various languages to become a suitable candidate for overseas work and continued my club activities to learn about different cultures. In particular, I believe that my major and language skills will enable me to perform basic tasks related to overseas trade without difficulty and achieve positive results through smooth communication.
I applied to your company because I want to become a leader in overseas business, create new value, and become a talent who can help your company leap forward into the international community. My goal is to become a globally competitive talent, and I promise to achieve it. I will become a member of your company who shows my determination and desire to achieve my goals. Thank you very much.
Thank you.

 

 

Overseas Sales Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
When I was young, my father was transferred overseas, and I lived in Malaysia for a long time. I attended an international school and was able to learn various languages from an early age under the influence of my mother, who was a language teacher in Malaysia. When I returned to South Korea in my third year of middle school, I had a lot of difficulty with the Korean style of rote learning, so I found my own way of studying while attending school. Because of this, I was able to quickly adapt to active and creative learning in college and achieve good results. Since then, I have continued to study foreign languages more actively, including studying abroad, which has led me to dream of working overseas.
My excellent language skills have allowed me to participate in exchange programs and language study abroad, as well as gain experience in extracurricular activities, part-time jobs, and interpretation. In particular, interpreting is not only about expressing thoughts accurately in another language, but also about interacting with people directly, which has helped me develop my social skills. Marketing events, in particular, allowed me to develop quick thinking skills in response to sudden changes and greatly improved my problem-solving abilities. In addition, while studying abroad in an English-speaking country, I was able to experience organizational life through an internship at a local subsidiary of a Korean company.
I believe that overseas sales is the field where I can best utilize my abilities. This is because I am confident in my interpersonal skills, which I have developed through my language skills, overseas experience, language training, exchange student program, and various extracurricular activities, part-time jobs, and internships. I will lead your company’s expansion into the global market by utilizing my knowledge, language skills, and communication skills. If given the opportunity, I will contribute to the growth of the company as a continuously developing talent.
Thank you very much.
