Personal statement help

[Elspeth]

I'm writing a personal statement and I need help

What the hell should I put in it?

[Zero]

Is it for a uni app? Postgrad?

There's different ways to approach it.
Want me to fire you over one of my ones from a recent job application?
I got the job, so it couldn't have been that bad.

I tend just to run through various skills I've had to develop over years through being in certain jobs/situations, mention my interests, and how this would benefit me in the job/role I'm going for.
Then tack on the usual keen and quick to learn, yada yada
