Great working opportunity and able to advance to better appointments in admin

I have had a great experience as a personal assistant and my day included starting off with checking my emails and those of the Councillor. Proceed to have a brief meeting to plan for the day and make arrangements that need to be handled before hand. I then prepare the appropriate documentation using the Microsoft office package and also handle the filling system of any paperwork that needs to be handled.

Pros: Great opprtunity to learn more
Cons: long working hours and weekends

Thabo

I am presently working for one of the best Municipalities the entire African Continent which is the City of Johannesburg. I am also responsible for Board Advisory Committee (Group Risk Governance, Group Audit and Group Performance Audit Committees). I work in a very vibrant and progressive environment with my colleagues. I start working in the Committees Unit in 2012 and I have since learnt a lot in terms of managing and coordinating the Committee. The most challenging part of my job is nagging the officials or members to submit reports timeously.

Pros: Great opportunity for growth
Cons: Late submission of reports by Departments
