The Early Bird catches the worm
A typical day in the life of Zakir, general starts early, very early. I guess I learnt a person who takes the earliest opportunity to do something will gain an advantage over others. With coffee in hand, I peruse through my emails and check for any urgent attention.- A few sips down and into the swing of handling those I NEED TO GET DONE NOW emails. I greet my colleagues, offer them lunch, yes I eat my lunch in the morning. We discuss our day, adhoc meeting. Every single tasks I have to complete; visiting clients to discuss Renewals, handling claims, adding on that new BMW for Mr Chetty. Checking if Mr Wietz received the policy schedule I just sent him. Every tasks has a common thread and that is energy and enthusiasm channeled towards a single goal :Building exceptional relationships with clients and colleagues. Have a super NEW YEAR. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read my cover letter and resume. ....

Great Learning Experience and Exposure to Growth.
Being with Marsh has really been an eye opener on how the industry works altogether. I now can perform Brokers duty with no supervision in certain things. I've learned a lot and I've grown to a better person since joining the industry and I'm still willing to grow more. I am able to put the need of a client before mine and it makes me so happy to see the client delighted with the work that I've done for them. It's been a good experience as it allows one to learn to operate with more than one characters of individual.
Pros: opportunity for growth
