Susette Lista Oviedo

I am an organised, logical and resolute problem solver who is dedicated and self-motivated. I apply myself fully under all circumstances and approach each task or proiect with an open mind, curiosity and a strong will to succeed. Being enthusiastic about lifelong learning makes me embrace challenges of any kind and it has helped me establish my resilience. I am a very fast and adaptable learner, meticulous, patient, and good with troubleshooting. I work well independently, but also enjoy engaging with driven individuals from different walks of life.

Throughout my 4 years of study at the Independence Institute of Education: IIE's Varsity College, I was able to complete my LLBHons) at the end of 2022 with several distinctions.

However, I do have one last examination pending which I am due to write and finish on the 14th of February 2023, hence completing all creditable modules. I was able to work hands on with clients facing real life issues with ProBono.Org and gained adequate skills on how consultations are set out as well as understanding how to work in an office dynamic. I am a fluent speaker in English, Spanish and Afrikaans. I have also participated in a number of moot court experiences and competitions with victorious results. In addition, through my course of study I have also associated myself with going to various magistrates' courts and the Pretoria High Court to gather notes and pointers to better my academic outcomes, which has also given me a vision of the actual process and how the system is run. During my final year of study, I have also formulated and completed my thesis titled “The process of obtaining citizenship for refugees in South Africa” which resulted in a distinction as well, allowing me to also receive my NQF level 8.

I believe that a position at your company can provide an exciting and enriching experience, while my strong work ethic, innovation, commitment, and growing skill set give me faith that I will be an asset to the company. A detailed copy of my CV is attached for your perusal. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require further information or documentation. Hereunder I have provided my curriculum vitae. Thank you kindly for your time and consideration

As a recent completed student, I do not have and extreme amount of experience outside from all the practical and theoretical work I have been exposed to, hence my persistence and drive to start my articles as a candidate attorney.
