Please correct my resume and cv

[Shapeworker]

Hello there,

Can someone correct my resume and a summary of my cv please? I want to move abroad to the Netherlands but I have to sent a resume and cv in English and my English is not very well.

Because I don't want my actual employer to read that I'm looking for a new job (you never know who's visiting this site ), I haven't mentioned the names of companies and dates.

Thanks a lot!

Resume:

I am very interested in the "sales assistant" position advertised on the ………. website on ……

Besides, I’m also working as an independent senior consultant for Herbalife so I also have some sales experience. I like working in sales very much and that’s the reason why I’m actively seeking employment in the field of sales.

Working in the Netherlands forms no sticking point for me and I’m prepared to move.
