Strengths and Weaknesses
• What do you most enjoy about working with horses? Building a connection with them and helping them learn new things
• Is there anything you’d like to improve? Can always improve riding ability, always looking to improve and learn more in all aspects of care as well.
• Why should employers consider you above any other job seeker? I am very reliable and genuinely care about the horses, I treat them how I would want my own to be treated, I am very calm and patient with them.
