High pressure & dynamic environment.

As a Leasing Assistant , each day was a challenge. Which development would be urgent priority today? Was yesterday's priority still a priority today? Will the marketing brochure printed yesterday be redundant today? Will I have to prepare 5 Offer to Lease documents and then have to hold them back? This was my typical day. Each day a variety of high pressure tasks. Each co-worker with similar challenges. Sometimes we were able to assist one another. Sometimes not. Each day we work vigorously towards targets. Yet weekly measurements show otherwise. constantly we are at the receiving end of the director's wrath. Too many developments to work on. Grossly understaffed. Additional pressure frays nerves. Being capable of performing in the capacity of a leasing consultant and not being considered. This was the most challenging aspect of the job.

Pros: Opportunity to earn commission income
Cons: daily long hours, high pressure, volatile environment, grossly under-staffed

I have sharpened up my skills and equipped my self with more troubleshooting techniques

In my previous employer i have been exposed to the following: - Creating new users on active directory and add user to mailing groups requested. - We created user accounts for billing on Phoenix and updating their extensions. - When creating user profiles, we also assign phone budget for our users depending to their departments. - To newly bought phones, we used to configure them before issuing to the users. I have a good relationship with my co-workers and i have enjoyed the environment, because i was more hands on with my work. Getting the exposure i was looking for. The most challenging aspects was when we have devises that are down and we had lots of users calling, especially when we were still troubleshooting the root cause of the problem.

Pros: Great opportunity i was given to be exposed to a very busy environment
Cons: Awkward area to work for, struggling to get to work.

Supervising

What I find challenging about the job is Applying the acquired supervisory skills in an environment with diverse groups of individuals in a team...eg.when introducing changes.

Pros: Great for career advancement
Cons: Long wirking hours

Excellent learning curve but no future

I've worked for more than a decade at a very busy retail shop and with that experience I've also managed a whole department. At the end of the day and a decade of loyalty I felt that there no future in retail. I was where I started of 10 years ago and that's where it looks like they will keep me. In my CV attached are references of my superiors to give more light on the matter. Working hard, meeting deadlines, being a team player is just some of the strong points I have. I do everything to the best of my ability.

Pros: Great investment to the company
Cons: Long working hours

Exceptional Leadership

Currently Unemployed Had the opportunity to work with some of the most amazing people's people. Always uplifting and crediting were needed. I had exceptional relationship with all my co-workers. Learnt a great deal about business itself as well as about management. I enjoyed that I could go to work every day and not one day were the same, always teaching us as a team new things and a lot of good life lessons. Most challenging days were when projects run into issues, but you do not have any control over the issues and the client want answers, but teamwork always prevailed and we delivered.

Pros: Great team and Executives
Cons: Not many growth oppertunities

I like working under pressure and to be challenged

We would arrive at 8:30 am and access all emailed correspondence and telephonic messages, most of the time we worked on employee packs for the Water Board and other government departments. These were the best candidates chosen and it was intense work. I have learnt to be precise in selecting potential candidates and I enjoyed the diverse range of tasks I had to perform. I enjoyed most of the staff and was professional with the rest

Pros: Very challenging and I work well under pressure
Cons: Traffic
