Just wanted to drop by and see if you had seen this discussion about personal statements from a couple of weeks back, as it might be of help:

As you are writing your personal statement for a job application you might find the articles that I linked to at the end of this discussion helpful: Completing Job Applications and Job Application Forms.
Hopefully some people who have recently done a personal statement will give you some of their feedback too. Good luck :thumb:.

Your CV will surely get you an interview, then you have to make a good impression.
handelling = handling
Same with covering letter...
You need to match the job specification (the links on the page may have this info, I just don't have time to check them)... I went to a work shop just over a year ago and the leader said that on average, employers will skim a CV over for 20 seconds... You need to be able to present to the employer that you are exactly what s/he wants in those 20 seconds.
I would say...
Probably you know most of this, but maybe it is useful for other people. :d
I actually think that for a sales job, you come across as very qualified.
