Learned to work independantly and as a team in other parts.

Working at wits was eye opening got me to see a lot of potential as a future manager , challenging times was exams but only because we where shortstaffed. We saw patients per appointment so it was easy to attend to clients needs holistically.

Pros: Career advancements, free learning

Fast paced, accuracy and efficiecy is required in work i do

I have a great relationship with co-workers, they are all willing to go extra mile for me. Typical work day involves solving problems, managing accounts, and processing claims for payments I have learned to improve accuracy as I work with very sensitive accounts. I enjoy when analysing and reporting on projects and problem solving. The most challenging is dealing with staff not understanding finance processes.

Pros: I can attend university for free
Cons: Too much admin
