Pierre SCHWEITZER 5, Boulevard Gariel 13004 Marseilles FRANCE [email protected] +33(0)6.15.40.33.58 - +33(0)4.91.05.85.77 23rd April 1985 in Marseilles, France – 22 years old Male French

I am willing to do a 4-6 months communication internship (mostly advertising and public relations) in a company starting from May or June 2008. I have just completed my 5 year-long higher studies in communication and economics at the university in Marseilles, France. Another internship will come as a logical conclusion to my studies and at the same time a great start for my future career. I am always looking for new challenges, that is the reason why I have decided to find opportunities in Australia, a country that I would love to discover. After 5 years of various jobs, internships and other experiences, I have learned much about how a company works and how I can be useful in it (particularly through my latest job in shipping). I am a very outgoing and motivated person. What I like above all is to adapt to any situation, whatever it requires. I can work on my own initiative and deal with many duties. I will be happy to complete any mission that you will give me as long as my personal abilities allow me to. More specifically I have a good understanding of what is required in communication-oriented jobs. My personal qualities include a rigorous and attractive writing, as well as an outgoing personality, which is an advantage in communication. My philosophy ? Always take time to understand a company’s way of working and marketing prospects. It is the only approach that leads to the most suitable communication. Thank you for reading my resume. If you think that I can help you through an internship, please contact me. I will also be happy to set a telephone interview as soon as possible. Of course my university will provide all the required insurances and I know how to proceed in order to obtain the appropriate visa for this situation.
