The best experience ever

My job was basically the same thing every day handling different kinds of clients all day long but it was fun as i have learnt quiet a lot about handling different kinds of people i speak manly of my job at african bank because that is the job i have done for the longest period and my colleagues and i were more like family .

Pros: there isnt really much to tell as it was the same thing everyday handling queries and processing loans that just about it
Cons: long hours that were not even considered as over time because the branch closes at 12 on saturday but if there were still clients inside the branch the was no knocking off but i got used to it and started embracing it as it was my bread and butter .

Great working

As per my job description as Sales Consultant that walks almost the whole doing door to door looking for clients, it is a great job if you are a person of loving to work outside doors but also challenging when you have to ask for few minutes of the people's time as they are working and I need to speak to them with regards to what i am offering them. Nice thing is that you get to work with people and you get to meet different people with different attitudes towards you. but that you have to get used to it.

Pros: Challenging opportunity interms of if you are not good with people
Cons: its flexible hours

I'm a fast learner

Working for an insurance company is very challenging and sometimes exciting and fun especially if you are reaching targets everyday. Sometimes you feel very stressed when people show no interest in what you selling because they get bored in hearing about funeral plans and so forth so it's very difficult to work at an insurance company. My relationship with the co-workers wasn't very pleasant because everyone would fight to get that 2cases per day so it was like you are in a competitive at work, I have learnt alot, I learnt how to be independent and push myself to the limit worked long hours to reach the target that I'm given even on weekends there was no rest.

Pros: I never had the opportunity to be promoted how ever you would be promoted depending on how you work within the company but that does not happen often because there were plenty old advisors that are very good at what they do but still haven't been promoted.
Cons: We didn't have time to clock in and out but you must make sure you do not sleep without submitting what is expected of you.
