Example of Personal statement

I’ve graduated in Humanities, at from Carlos III University in Spain, recently. I’m looking for a job in the hospitality industry for gaining to gain work experience. I’m interested in any field of the industry as a waiter, barman or chicken porter. (A chicken porter? A chicken lays eggs and and in the U.S. we eat fried chicken. I don't know what you mean.)

I’m show myself to be self-motived, committed and determined in achieving my goals. I’m a quick learner. Also, I’ve a sense of responsibility and capacity to work hard under pressure. I can work with people from a variety of different nationalities due to the fact (or instead of 'due to the fact' you can use the word 'because') I’m fluent in Spanish, and I’ve a basic knowledge of German and Japanese, both of which I’m learning actively actively learning.

 

Notes: If I was writing this to get a job, I would not write contractions: I've, I'm... It sounds more professional to write out 'I have', 'I am'. (Speaking is different - in a job interview I would say I'm and I've.)  While the last sentence may be grammatically correct (I am NOT a grammar specialist) I think it would sound more professional this way:

I can work with people from a variety of nationalities because I am fluent in Spanish and have a basic knowledge of German and Japanese.
