Exposure and Learning new things always

I was learning new things each an every working day since I was working with scientific stuff and doing experiments, so sometimes I was working under pressure because of too much complicated work. The relationship with coworkers was awesome since we were like siblings and covering each others back and we were working like ninjas because we were able to reach our target everyday at work. I learned to be independent regardless of the pressure and also to be creative and accurate. I enjoy molecular biology laboratory work especially when I work with microorganisms, extracting oil or DNA and preparing Agar medium. I just enjoy any laboratory procedure because I like challenges. The most challenging part is when you get meaningless results after you went through lot of steps for a certain scientific problem.

Pros: Discovering new things and gaining knowledge
Cons: Long working hours and always studying.

Strong focus on academic environment

My experience at the university has been an interesting one. I was part of implementing the controls around Vat within the organisation which was a challenging exercise. We are a small team required to provide financial support to the entire university as there are no smaller financial reporting units. This is centralised. I enjoy working here as I have the freedom to work on my own without being micromanaged. I get along well with staff and often train people on financial related matters. I am a cheque signatory which comes with a lot of responsibility and I appreciate the trust that has been placed in me.

Pros: Relaxed management style and freedom to implement my ideas.
Cons: Tight deadlines no performance management and inadequate staff compliment

Review of my working experince at the University of limpopo as a Student assistance the enviroment is calm and chill in which one is able to interact with his colleques and co-workers, therfore if i were to mentioned the things that i have learned at this intitution the list is endless but some of those aspect that i have learned to to be friendly, polite and be a good listener irrespecive of the person that your talking too. Respect is is another vital aspect that one should practice when your a public servent in which you should treat everyone with respect and the last one is to work a a team to archieve our goals as an intitution.

Pros: great opportunity for career development
Cons: far from town or city of polokwane

None

I haven't worked anywhere else but I'm willing to get a job and work very hard.Dear sir / madam I am Mamabolo Patrick and I completed my undergraduate degree from university of Limpopo and I am looking forward to get a job because I believe that I have the ability to work in any case or condition of the work and I’m passionate in working any job that has to do with laboratory and environmental field. I want to have a good experience in the work place and be able to work very hard with limited supervision and be able to find solutions for the problems found in biology and environmental field even in Africa. I want to invest all of me as the company will be investing in me. I’m the last born in my family and my dad can’t talk or hear so I want to be there for him and my family. I can even volunteer if possible. I will be very delighted and appreciated if I become one of you in the future of science.

Pros: Hard worker

It helped me to work with people of different culture to myself..

It was an exiting offer that help an individual to grow.it makes your communication skill stronger and good..it helped me to understand to culture of other individuals.it also helped me not to undermine other individual but listening to their taughts,what they do thinks..it helped to use time fruitfully. It taught me how deal with people that can make you out of line example those that are testing your believe n so forth.

Cons: It was hurt job because u must work even through later your writing some important assessment
