Good practical experience

Working in the public sector is challenging and demanding. High patient volumes and minimal resources to work with. However, seeing your patient getting better when you do the best you can is the reward at the end of the day. It involves a lot of team work and one learns how to foster good relationships with fellow colleagues, including junior staff and senior staff. I enjoy interacting with others and having discussions about what's best for our patients

Pros: Invaluable practical experience
Cons: Long working hours

Good experience

It's a great exposure of working in such big department, dealing with different queries on daily basis, solving online queries and some telephonically. Assisting in different departments when it's busy. Learning about the institution policies, vision,mission, etc. Working hand in hand with our stakeholders, updating our intranet, find opportunity to retrieve files at outpatient, opening files for new patient's etc there's a lot I learnt in our institution. Working as a team with our colleagues was the best thing to deal with many and face more challenges

Pros: Great opportunity
Cons: Busy institution
