I highly recommend Margarethe she is an intelligent, hard working individual with a great sense of creativity. She is definitely driven to do her best in all she does. Over the years I have known Margarethe I have developed a great respect for her, so it is difficult to know where to begin in recommending her. For instance, our office was at times extremely busy and hectic yet even under these conditions she maintained strong positive attitude and organizational skills that have so many times benefited us tremendously. Her reaction to feedback, even negative, was met with the same grace and style. She listened attentively and reacted accordingly, she often worked without any supervision; learning her duties once and never needed prompting afterward. She has the strength and character to perform under the most diverse conditions and faces every challenge with these very characteristics. I know she is the kind of individual that works her hardest to achieve her goals and will do what it takes to finish what she starts. She has also developed the ability and the desire to face new horizons and challenges all with the perseverance to succeed. So you can see why she comes so highly recommended.
