Order office equipment, cleaning materials using ITS. Working with different students of different cultures taught me to learn different kinds of attitude and have an insight by not judging people.

Pros: Interacting with people of different cultures.
Cons: Lack of community engagement in the company

Great learning curve

Being an administrative assistant, your job is to assist administratives, whatever those are. And to much of the world, your job sounds like an easy one. The most challenging part of the job is that You Always Have To Be Happy People Think Your Job Is Easy. What I have learned is that an administrative assistant is the one who keeps the office running efficiently. The skilled administrators continuously look for new ways to lend support, or make improvements to benefit the company. The administrators aren't just supporting players they add value in a way that makes them critical to an organization's success.

Pros: Opportunities to grow
Cons: Comfort Zone

Excellent and experienced

Lecturing,I am also one of btech project supervisors .I have other research projects that I am conducting. I have publications and conference presentations that I have done. I work well with my co- workers and also very well with students. I help market the department to increase the employability of our students by working with industrial partners. I have learnt to work with professional organisation bodies and to participate in those organisations. I enjoy diversity of my work and the different types of people that I liaise with through my job because I love networking.

Reached my ceiling

I am an accomplished individual who has been at the UJ for 13 years and I have extensive experience in the field of English writing - proofreading, editing, teaching and learning, etc. My day is often spent dealing with students either in a one-on-one situation or in workshops, where the writing process and all its facets are elucidated and exercised practically. I relate very well to my fellow workers, and enjoy the interaction, but also like to work on my own, especially in light of the fact that I need peace and quiet to work. The most challenging aspect of the job is to deal with an array of different people and to be able to assess their needs within a short period of time - but this I have also mastered. I feel I have reached my ceiling here and am looking for greener pastures to spread my wings and fly further!

Pros: Great holiday times
Cons: Hard work and very little reward or recognition

In HR we have typical work day everyday as we are deadline drive.I had good relationship with my colleague with different section in HR I am working as generalist and normally people need assistant .

Pros: Although Mangement is willing to do so, the issue is budget due to National Fees must fall strike that affect the budget approval for new year.
Cons: I never had problems wtih long working hour as i am attending classes in the evening and that give me opportunity to push tha project work e.g testing what IT has loaded and see if it working on our HRM system.

Excellent learning curve

Working in the university of Johannesburg has been rather challenging but the experience gained is second to non. Studying while working has helped me learn how to cope with massive work loads and work well under pressure and also work well with others. It has boosted my self confidence and helping students further understand their module has brought me greater joy.

Pros: Teamwork
Cons: Workload
