Great sales person

In the first quarter I exceeded my sales target by 10% through a creative outbound campaign in collaboration with the marketing team. This resulted in me signing my biggest client to date, and gaining three solid referrals from the new relationship. I didn't hit my Q4 target of 15% increased organic traffic, as total new visitors went up by 12% this quarter. Through this I've gained more insight into what content performs well and what doesn't, so that going forward we can focus our efforts on high performing posts.

Pros: quick leaner
Cons: hard on myself

Create job opportunities for unemployed and Graduates

HR department has an extreme workload and lot of pressure. What is very challenging about this job is the outdated system for onboarding, new and current employees still need to complete forms.
