Great experience

Office hours are from 08:00 to 16:00 which is never the case among myself and my colleagues as we often extend our working hours to ensure the success of our projects. I am the leader of a small marketing team with huge expectations from my line manager which we manage to achieve all the time through the unity among us. During my time at UJ I have have learned patience, as we are all different individuals from different backgrounds therefore we do not have the same perspective as everyone else. I enjoy the freedom to think out of the box and to try new things, because marketers are supposed to be innovative. The most Challenging part of my Job is that we are understaffed so we work under pressure all the time.

Pros: Perfect opportunity for mental growth
Cons: Not enough staff

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
