Katey O’Brien
Dental Assistant
Maryborough,QLD
Summary
I am an ambitious, motivated and polite 21-year old, looking for casual, part-time or full-time work. I care for others and listen to their needs and work to help them with anything I can. Given a task, I will complete it quickly and to an expected standard. I have previously completed three semesters of study at Queensland University of Technology and thanks to aged-care placement, I am qualified to work as an Assistant in Nursing. I completed a 12-month traineeship as a receptionist to obtain a certificate III in Business. My most previous role was dental assisting at Mary River Dental in Maryborough, through this role I have gained valuable knowledge in infection control, customer service and assisting chair-side. My partner and I have recently relocated to the Sunshine Coast Hinterlands where I am actively seeking employment, I maintain a queensland license and own a vehicle. I am a very independent and reliable employee and would love the opportunity to broaden my skills and knowledge.
