Porfile For Events Coordinator

Hi! I am Jenny. I come from Taiwan. Chin-Ling is my Chinese name, it means golden bell. I am an ESL program student in SCCC. I graduated from Chinese Culture University in Taiwan and I majored in Journalism. I have journalistic work experience for 2 years including 1 year as an intern and 1 year with formal status. Then, I changed to work in sales in a furniture shop for 1 year to learn some business practices.

I joined activities energetically in school when I was a university student. I was a member in a campus radio studio. I was a leader in the public relations department and a journalist. In this job I interviewed many important people on campus and with outside companies regarding current issues. There were many events needing to advertise, such as new principles in school and activities of clubs. So attracting cooperated clubs was one of my responsibilities. The radio studio also held some activities to improve listening rates. In our activities we usually needed supporters, and getting resources from companies was one of my responsibilities too. The other work I needed to do well was to build a positive image of the radio studio. I enjoyed my work, and did it well. I did seven things during my term when I was a leader in the public relations department that hadn’t been done before. These things increased the radio programs and the public’s access to the airwaves.

After graduating I worked for a famous broadcasting company in Taiwan. It was a stressful environment, but it gave me good training to be logical. Then I changed to a sales and found I could sell 1/3 of the stores total sales per month for 8 months.

I am glad to be studying at SCCC. It is a varied and culturally progressive school. We have many classmates who are from different countries. They bring different cultures and habits. We may hold some celebration during another other country’s festival, or hold a party to share special meals. I have enough experience as an events coordinator, and I also have the ambition to do the job well. I like to advertise events and create ideas in a group. It is a good chance to improve my ability.

In my opinion, to be a student means not only studying books, we need to join activities and enjoy our life.
