Great exposure to UAT testing and SIT

I am a conscientious person who works hard and pays attention to detail. I'm flexible, quick to pick up new skills and eager to learn from others. I also have lots of ideas and enthusiasm. I'm keen to work for a company with a great reputation and high profile like my current company and previous company. I am able to take on the responsibility of this position immediately, and have the enthusiasm and determination to ensure that I make a success of it.

Pros: Being Team lead at Perago SIA
Cons: Pushing myself to work long hours in order to get the job done

Good condition

I am 23 years of age, I have a diploma in Information Technology in Network Management and Higher Certificate in Information Technology in Support Services, I am currently working as an intern at ABSA Group for period of 6 months and I am eager to learn new skill. I have acquired athe following skills, 1. I am an easy person to work with 2. I am very patient 3. I pay attention to details. I have learnt so much for my work what for example how to work with people and how to handle myself working with users it has also taught me how to be patient. I enjoyed helping people especially when they were able to work again and I am the. Kind of person who will go extra mile to make sure another person is assisted and satisfied. The most challenging thing was working with difficult users who couldn't understand that application or software are beyond your control.

Pros: Great environment, learning new applications and software, getting experience and gaining knowledge
Cons: Difficult users

Awesome Role

My role allows for diverse functions and exposes the incumbent to the wider organisation especially innovation and new changes. Stakeholder and relationship management are core requirements and engagement, collaboration and communication remains drivers for success. Excellent leadership skills and a natural way to create calm amidst the raging storms stands one in good stead to keep matters from falling apart and enables structure during difficult situations. Problem resolution becomes a commodity in the role and is extremely fulfilling once achieved. Most challenging aspects can be summarised as -dealing with unpleasant surprises due to management process and oversight failures

Pros: Challenges the status quo
Cons: Dumping ground for all else

Not progressive

Unstable work environment due to retrenchments. No progression. Passive hierarchical structure. People are just there to collect a check and are not for the good of the business

Pros: Work life balance
Cons: Everything else

Great pay

If you dont mind a call centre environment when you have a degree then go for it. The pay is great and you get paid extra for working over time. You decide how much you earn per month.

Pros: Compensated for overtime
Cons: They recruited LLb graduates and the work is unrelated
