Learnings and Challenges
I have enjoyed working with different buyers,in different categories which made me discover I can adapt in any category and brands.I have mostly enjoyed the culture the teamwork and the drive to deliver the best Category. I had had the pleasure to work in a Project Category where in depth research has been required in offering the best skincare products to customers with serious skin problems. Since the business is very promotional driven it has been very challenging preparing for more then one promotion ans liasing with stakeholders.I have had an opportunity to deal with the best suppliers.I have learnt in this business you can go very far if you put a lot into it and go beyond your role as an assistant,that counted a lot for future promotions and I have learnt that you need to develop yourself as an individual as so to align yourself with future opportunities.
Pros: Working in a project category where there is a lot to learn with regards to facial needs,attending supplier strategy meetings and product presantations and trade shows,getting involved in the planning of product launches and preparing samples.
Cons: Attention to detail is of utmost importance as assistant you deal with pricing so any mistake can cost the business millions,too many promotions with tricky offers to load on the system.

About me
I am a hard working individual who always strives to achieve her best and never gives up. I always try to live my life according to my faith and easily able to get alone with people of all beliefs and backgrounds. When under pressure I will say a short prayer in order for me to stay calm. I am professional and a dedicated individual. I separate my personal life work life and always remember that I am being paid for perform as the company is investing in me to perform my daily job. What I have learn in life is that if someone at work or even in my personal life upsets me its best to keep quiet because saying things out of anger is not only hurtful to the other person but you will live with the regret for what you said. I always try to be friendly and supportive of my colleagues. I do not only want to see myself grow but want to support my colleagues to achieve the best they can as well. I am honest and trustworthy, and always reliable.
Pros: career growth
