The list itself wont appear on your CV, but we can turn it into a
useful description of your character, which can be included.
Once you have compiled your list, pick the six or seven most
relevant points to the kind of job you are likely to apply for. For
each of the words or phrases, construct a sentence about
yourself, where possible giving an example of when you have
demonstrated that kind of behaviour, and in this way work up a
short passage about your personality.
From the list above, the result follows:

I am a hardworking and loyal person. My experience

working in shops has taught me that a polite and calm
approach to caring for the customer works best. I try
always to be accurate in my work and take a pride in being
thorough about details. I enjoy working as part of a team.
