This statement will be included as part of your final e-Portfolio. Your Professional Philosophy Statement should be 250-500 words.As you consider what to include in your statement, keep in mind the things that employers find valuable: organization, resourcefulness, work ethic, creativity, motivation, perseverance, adaptability, strong written and verbal communication, and emotional intelligence.Do not simply detail your work experience; that is what your resume is for.

What is unique to you? What will you do to help you, the company, and your colleagues succeed?
