My position at the company as a claims assessor
It was a great learning curve for me thus far. I started of with a internship and did a Long Term Insurance NQF4 course which benefited me so much and improved my skills and knowledge to apply in my current position. I enjoy the position that I am currently in because I enjoy communicating with people and different personalities. My goal is to always provide excellent professional level of service and to meet the clients needs. I have acquired an extensive amount of knowledge and experience in this industry over the years. Friendly working environment and staff members work well together. The only thing that I am not satisfied with is the fact that there is no room for growth in the company and no benefits offered.
Pros: Great opportunity to start your career within the industry
Cons: The increase in the workload and constant changes with regards to workflow processes. Not being able to take your leave days when it's suitable for you

Excellent learning place to start at.
It is very nice to wA great place to start a career in an insurance industry. A good team working with as they can teach you all the experience you need to have. I’ve learnt to deal with different personalities as working within a call centre industry. It is very challenging to work with funeral policies but challenges have made me to realize that only hard work which pays off. What I enjoy mostly with the company is the way of working. There is quite no pressure when working. We only work Monday to Friday and be off for two days. The most challenging thing is dealing with many calls when it is end of month or the 25th of the month.

A great experience
for the past year at Emerald life, I have learned a great deal of things that I believe may improve me as a working female. I have learned patience, which is a weakness I had been struggling with for years. I developed a great relationship with my colleagues that extends outside the workplace. the greatest challenge I face mostly as Head Of Admin is agents that do not want to comply to documents handed to them, but a solution is always found. and difficult clients. but I always deal with those with a smile. and has worked pretty well for me.
Pros: great opportunity for experience growth
Cons: salary does not fit title/job description and amount of work done on a daily basis
