New Environment, New Challenges that will enhance my Devleopment and Growth

To Whom This May Concern I Heather would like to apply for Personal Assistant position advertised on Job placement. I am currently working 14 years for Absa in a Personal Assistant position in various departments. The reason for applying is that I need a different environment that will give me new challenges that will enhance my growth. A typical work day never pans out the way you have it planned, confidentiality is key, Over the past years I have learned through my working relationship that you have to treat everyone the same, with respect and integrity. Overall I love administration work, assisting our team to be the Top Performing Region. Regards Heather Louw

Pros: Oppertunity for Growth
Cons: To Be Discuss At Interview

A great stepping stone.

I work well with my colleagues and get along with my manager. I've learned treasury for the past 11 months and have been reliving in that department. What I enjoy the most about my job is the clients, I get so much joy in assisting my clients and giving them the right products. Sometimes I can say Fica can be a bit of a challenge especially having to explain what Fica is and why it is important that we Fica our accounts.

Pros: Absa has a lot of opportunities and they can pay for our studies as well.
Cons: Having to work long hours sometimes without lunch.

Very hard working and i can adapt very well.

I am committed to productivity and performance improvement through coaching and mentoring skills. I am able to adapt to changing environments easily and as a highly motivated individual, I am able to integrate myself into a professional team environment effectively, whilst applying and enhancing my education and experience. I ensure a “right the first time approach” towards my duties, whilst understanding and successfully implementing business processes and objectives. Projects undertaken are completed with accuracy and commitment to the principles of good governance, whilst I continuously strive for quality output together with repeated and consistent delivery. I endeavor to perform to the best of my ability at whatever task I am assigned, I offer effective problem-solving skills, and I provide the ability to manage high pressure situations unsupervised and according to deadlines. With good listening and liaison skills, I am able to communicate successfully with others.

Pros: Working well with the guys and being able to adapt
Cons: Systems upgrades
