Execellent Learning Curve and brodening of skills

Some days are hectic especially when we are about to reach monthed and invoicing has to be done and clients having queries, and follwing up on PO's can be time consuming because everything has to be done accordingly. The relationship I have with my co-workers is good because we have established a way in working well togeather in order to become more productive and share the responsobilities. The main thing I have learned is to be patient and pay close attention to detail while being productive at the same time. Meeting deadlines it put me at ease and encourages me to excel in what I do. Having to deal with clients the are not very friendly is one of my challenge because at the end of the day I need to make sure the client is happy with the service provided.

Pros: Opportunity for growth within the organisation
Cons: Travelling

Growth, challenge, managing multiple responsibilities

a typical workday sitting at my desk all day, not much tasks to complete in a day, not much responsibilities. in most instances i have to create work. my relationship with my co workers is civil. multiple personalities from multiple backgrounds a bit challenging but manageable. i have learnt to be emotionally intelligent and to realise the bigger picture, we all share one common objective and that is to ensure the tasks allocated is complete up to standard according to organisational needs. i enjoy interacting with my colleagues. i enjoy delegating and completing task. the pressure you get from deadlines and the joy of seeing your boss pleased with the work produced. knowing that you an asset to the organisation and you add value. the most challenging aspects about the job, is ensuring that everybody in the team is happy with the outcome of certain tasks, accommodating every kind of personality and still ensuring professionalism. challenging but exciting.

Pros: Great opportunity to grow in a particular industry.
Cons: Lack of consistency
