I AM SURRENTLY AN IVESTIGATOR FOR SAPS

RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CO WORKRES IS GOOD, WE SHARE INFORMATION AMONGST OURSELVES SO AS TO ALWAYS UPDATE EACH OTHER ON WHAT IS HAPPENING IN AND AROUND. I HAVE LEANT THAT INVESTIGATION IS BROAD AND IT NEVER REALLY ENDS, ITS INTERESING, I MEET DIFFERENT PEOPLE EVERYDAY AND I LEARN NEW THINGS EVERYDAY. WHAT I ENJOY THE MOST ABOUT BEING AN INVESTIGATOR IS WHEN I FINILISE THINGS ESPECIALLY IF ITS SOONER THAN EXPECTED AND POSITIVELY. THE CHALLENGING FACTOR IS WHEN I DONT GET SUPPORT FROM THE CLIENTS (COMPLAINANT) HOWEVER IT IS SOMETHING THAT I DEAL WITH AS I KNOW AND UNDERSTAND WHAT MY DUTIES ARE AND WHAT IS EXPECTED OF ME.

Pros: GREAT LEARNING CURVE
Cons: LONG WORKING HOURS,
