Step 1: Start with your current job title, or the one you aspire to. Are you a passionate manager? A skilled analyst? It's a good starting point.
Step 2: Next put your years of experience in warehouse machine operator-related roles.
Step 3: Now is the time to put your biggest accomplishment or something you are professionally proud of.
