Excellent learning curve
Product design has always fascinated me. The design of products have the ability to change the way people live, think and behave. This is almost like the saying “do not tell me what to do but rather show me. I design by Dieter Rams`s philosophy that forms follow function. I am an energetic designer who is eager to learn more about the design industry. I am a quick learner and believe that you can never know enough. . I am good team worker and team leader. Individual work is easy for me as I am self motivated person. I feel that my easy going personality assists me to get along with people.

Excellent learning
I really loved working for my company because I had friendly and vibrant colleagues who also had a huge passion for what they were doing which motivated me everyday. I learned new things everyday and I learned how to work with people from diverse cultures. Communication is the most important key needed when you work with other people as it helps you understand the next person without judging them. A typical work day for me would be a little busy but managed to get everything done as my job required me to multitask and be able to work under pressure. Challenges I would face included having to deal with people who are uncooperative and impatient when trying to assist them. I learnt not to take such treatment personally but instead continue to give that person the best service they deserve.
Pros: It was a great working environment, the stuff was supporting and I learnt new things that will help me when I get another job.
Cons: Having most workers being absent on a busy day causing our services to be slow and lecturers being impatient.

Reached my ceiling
I am an accomplished individual who has been at the UJ for 13 years and I have extensive experience in the field of English writing - proofreading, editing, teaching and learning, etc. My day is often spent dealing with students either in a one-on-one situation or in workshops, where the writing process and all its facets are elucidated and exercised practically. I relate very well to my fellow workers, and enjoy the interaction, but also like to work on my own, especially in light of the fact that I need peace and quiet to work. The most challenging aspect of the job is to deal with an array of different people and to be able to assess their needs within a short period of time - but this I have also mastered. I feel I have reached my ceiling here and am looking for greener pastures to spread my wings and fly further!
Pros: Great holiday times
Cons: Hard work and very little reward or recognition
