It is very important to work as a team especially when theres project needs to be complete,

Working for eskom company it is great because can explore in the engineering field,working with my co-wokers is very nice I learnt from them because they thought me well in this field, I enjoyed doing commissioning and testing transformers.The only one challenge that I associated with is for us drive a long distance when we coming from the site.

Design of substation in fact the designs in particular

I am working well with the substation, electrification designers as I am working as a Draugthsman and furthermore I assist in the land development people during the approval and drawing of sld's using the small-world programm ENS, I work hand in hand with the other draughtpersons , over this past three years i have learned a lot in dealing with the different people as we work with the different stakeholders during the projects meetings. the most challenging part of my job is when I have to meet the deadline at a very short notice given work as I have to compromise my family time with that of working but I always make it sure that no project/s get delayed because i have to make excuses.

Pros: yes there is a possibly great opportunity for promotion
Cons: yes I do work long hours when needed

Excellent training Company

Being a trainee at Eskom is amazing as everyone is welcoming and willing to sacrifice their time to offer us knowledge and they allow us to be open minded by sharing our own ideas and experiment them if possible. My co-workers have the spirit of Ubuntu as they are always willing to uplift us and open our eyes even further in the technical world and the world itself in general. I have learnt to work with people and developed good communication skills, and my self confidence has grown. I enjoy having projects to do as they open my mind and allow me to think outside the box and they make me learn a lot as I always gain more knowledge through them.

Pros: I am becoming even more competent
Cons: Long working hours at some points

Excellent learning curve to develop customer service skills

I left WITBANK TB HOSPITAL 30 October2016 I now work as a Service Agent at Eskom holdings ,my daily job includes handling inbound interactions, perform vending and easy pay activities hence strive for excellence in customer interactions and service improvement ,I work closely with my co workers and that makes it easy to assist each other in areas where we don't understand certain things .Being able to assist a customer at the end of the day gives me great joy.It is most challenging if a day you get the same customer you assisted earlier or a day before still complains that the problem has not been resolved.

Pros: GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN NEW THINGS ,DIFFERENT SYSTEMS TO USE
Cons: WORKING UNDER CONTRACT FOR LONG
