Great university

A good day at work is always made by the team i work with. The relationship with my co-workers within the team is amazing one of the reasons i look forward to go to work. i have learned good communication skills, client services, working good within a team and so much more. What i enjoy the most is making that one call that is going to change a life, calling a candidate and inviting them for an interview, giving them a chance to secure a job that some have been looking for, for many years gives me fulfillment considering the unemployment rate in our country. What's most challenging about the job its when we have a demand or opportunities which are far from the people or rather community and it makes it hard to reach the target or invite enough people for that opportunity because of travel cost.

Pros: Changing lives
Cons: Not enough salary for basic needs

It's a learning environment

In a day one needs to be open to unlearn yesterday in order to learn new things and also improve. In our space we contact different candidate and update their profile through a telephonic questionnaire , through that conversation to give them hope. Our space and the atmosphere is welcoming with my co-workers is simply healthy and we care for one another. I learnt that change is the only constant and adaptation is key and the most challenging aspect in this space is nothing can be confirmed about what to expect from a candidate and every situation is not premeditated.

Pros: there's an opportunity for growth
Cons: no bonuses and incentives

Good for learning

I administer psychometric assessments for candidates to complete, assisting them throughout assessments if they need clarification. I also score them on the system and reports the results to psychologists to give feedback, after I move them to the relevant positions on the system. I also take MIEs, taking finger prints of candidates for checking their credit, qualification and criminal history. I also address candidates presenting motivational topics in empowering them in their journey as work seekers.

Pros: great oppotunity for learning
Cons: More hours less payment
