Technical Sounded

Working in Eskom is really an opportunity of a life time. A typical work day includes various task mechanical ,electrical and admin. Start of with a meeting then work on site or in office. I have a great relationship with my co workers as i am in a leadership role and run my own team. I have learnt alot leadership, upwards as well as downwards communication. I love being in the technical field and enjoy it most. Projects that is on time always.

Pros: ability to grow and study
Cons: Comfort in the position

Great experience being at the construction site of Kusile power station.

It's a opening eye experience, being at the site of Kusile power station, seeing it coming alive by contributing my time, knowledge and previous experience. Meeting and associating with many kind of people from many cultures of around the world. The gaining of knowledge of how Philippines people work in chains to speed up production is a eye opening to the meaning of team work. The most challenging aspects of the Job here is the language barrier between Expatriate Engineers and other Co-workers from around the world.

Pros: Great experience for future references and job prospects.
Cons: Construction industry has very long hours and it's almost impossible to study futher.
