My role has improved my leadership and management skills, hence I was encouraged to enroll for an MBA and Post Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning.

Challenging
It is challenging to work for Standard Bank as the work is becoming more robotic and needs the human factor less. The way the bank is going is that they need less and less staff and is busy to computerise most of the jobs.
Pros: Staff discount on service fees and medical aid
Cons: Low income ratios

Customers are always first, I am very passionate and dedicated at my job.
I am very dedicated and passionate at my job. Love making customers happy by providing excellent service to them. Always keeping them informed. The customer always comes first. I enjoy working in teams, and would really like looking for good opportunities to grow. Always thinking of new ways to work better. A typical day would be calling customers trying to make a arrangements for a valuation to be done on the property. I have a good relationship with my co-workers. I have learnt how to be responsible and take ownership/ accountablitity for my actions. and to always put the needs of the customer first. i enjoy it most when clients are pleased with the service that we provide to them. The most challenging aspects will be if customers numbers are incorrect to contact them. or if the property details are incorrect as this delays the process.
Pros: We work a flexible shift. We have alot of fun events at work.
Cons: when vacancies arises within the Bank, we are not always informed
