I have a Secretarial Diploma. I have a Call centre certificate.

I was working with Students helping them to capture the artefacts. After putting them on the safe place. We working as team under Professors. Some Students were volunteering. Some were working for 80 hrs a month. We took our artefacts to some labs. Working in Wits university was a very good experience but it was a temporary jobs. I didn't have any pressure. I was working from 8 o'clock to 2 o'clock. It was only half day three days a week. Having my own computer, telephone. Wits promised us to renew our contract but they just told us that they decided to terminate our contract they don't have money for us any more.

Pros: no promotion
