sanitised the full train. It increase the work pressure of cleaners. This report contains personal

MAIN BODY
Personal Analysis
After considering the Job advertisement I find it necessary to analyse my personal skills in order

qualify for this post I have an experience of cleaning before but the experience is of a house and
here they need cleaner for a train. To fulfil duties in the given job role it is mentioned that a
proper knowledge of tools and products which are used in cleaning activities is required. I have
experience of cleaning and have a proper knowledge of products and tools which are available in
the market for the purpose of surface cleaning. I also have good communication skills as it helps
me in my previous job to maintain good and healthy relations with my previous employer. I am
very polite to handle clients and can effectively communicate my point to other individual. It is
also required in this post which helps me qualify the requirements of employer. In order to
complete the cleaning task according to the government guidelines, the work needs to be
completed in a proper time framework. I am a person who value the time and complete my work

management skills in several ways. I also learn from my experience to have a good attention in
cleaning activities as it helps me to perform my work in efficient manner and provide experience
of multi tasking (McDaniel and Einstein, 2020). Although, I was not able to develop my skills in
multitasking in efficient manner that I will learn from further experience and having a career
action plan for the same. In order to work in night shift, I have good abilities to stay awake in the
night. But not able to sleep creates a problem of anxiety and stress in an individual in order to
protect myself from this I am planning to manage my stress and start yoga and meditation. As I
am student, this job will gave me a proper experience and a time to study in good manner as less
working hours is included in night shift. If analysed personally, I am person who is qualified for
the post having essential qualification and skills which are required for the post.

supervision of a yoga
instructor which helps
me to mediate in
