SAPS Reviews

 

Expert in investigation and intelligence gathering.

The job I did at saps included running covert intelligence and prosecution driven operations. I managed and trained a team of dedicated men and women to achieve positive objectives and goals. My job included excessive driving around gauteng province and also to other provinces like Limpopo, mpumalanga, KZN, Western cape , free state northern cape and north west. I have learnt how to interact with people from different backgrounds and cultures. On a daily basis I had to deal with loads of tasks from top management and clients and to adequately task my team mates and subordinates. To reach success was a tough challenge in respect of the time frame set but it was possible.

Pros: Career development
Cons: Over time

Excellent

Working under saps is challenging sometimes yoy have to leave your family midnight to go and assist other families attend to them till you make sure that everything is sorted at the very same time you are working for free but you dont have a choice cos they said u must comply and complain later. My relationship with my co workers is good as we are working hand in hand to improve service delivery. I have learnt to be confident with my job work hard to improve service delivery. I enjoy to see my client happy abd appreciate the job i did for them. Is to leave your family behind at night alone knowing very well that like it or not you have to leave them and attend into those complaints or cases

Pros: Yes im standing in a good position to see myself progressing.
Cons: I dont mind working long hours as long as im going to win.
