I have much experience for the post as I recently studied basic sign language

I am working 8 hours a day as an administrator ,liase close with social workers for issues relating to orphans , liase closely with community about issues relating to doctors appointments, I make applications different types of grants. I've learned a lot especially when it comes to conflict between beneficiaries and family members. What I like most about my admini work is that its challenging me I always experience new things such as beneficiaries telling lies and the Agency getting to tell them what is true. The challenges I experience is when there's no resources to help the poor communities the agency sometimes lacks resources.

Pros: The possition will be of great benefit to me as it will be a new venture to me
Cons: yes I can work long hours as we sometimes work overtime at imbizos and outreaches here at my work place

Working under pressure at the same time being deducted to my work.

Unfortunately at SASSA I was working on contract and contract had expired now I'm unemployed. But overall working for SASSA was a great experience and as for myself I've never worked at a collections department but when I got there the supervisor and our mentor made it easy for me to learn. And not so long I was task with my dairly responsibility and I did so well in such a way that when my superiors are not in the office I will lead the section. At SASSA were a team in such a way that I could not have fear to tell my colleague if they were doing wrong. I was never a supervisor but I've learnt supervision skill, working independently without supervision and being dedicated to my work. The challenges we had was shortage of staff members in our section and developing strategies for debtors to pay special the grant debtors.

Pros: Acting as a supervisor
Cons: Not achieving targets

I am a self motivated individual who enjoy my work and always punctual

I enjoy every moment of my time at work and interact with all line managers at all time to ensure service delivery to all my clients. I have also learned that well motivated staff happen to increase production at all times. Every activity of the job need to be addressed in time to avoid skipping set time lines which will hamper planned delivery of services.

Pros: It will be an honor for me to be given an opportunity to prove my potential in your company
Cons: I am prepared to dedicate most of my time to the tasks that will be offered to me and prepared to work for long hours to ensure that the company achieve its objectives
