Another egg into my basket - Generic Management
My responsibilities are to facilitate training, stakeholder engagement, content review for updates, draw training schedule, need analysis, post training analysis, as well as pre and post training administrative duties. I joined this department permanently on the 22nd of May 2017 and I was confused. I didn't let my lack of industry knowledge discourage me. I reached out to my colleagues and drew as much knowledge and information from the as I could. Now, even though there's quite a lot to learn since Absa is such a huge empire, I can proudly say I have made quite a remarkable amount of progress. I leveraged off my colleagues and now I am useful resource in the team. What I enjoy about my job are the bank-related concepts, characters, process as they are quite practical and agile.
Pros: Great company to work for, which caters for its employees
Cons: Far from home

Do not give up easily
My day starts with actioning leads and calling clients to give them feedback.During the day I assist and do my normal job of selling products and solutioning clients.My relationship with my co-workers is good because we learn from each other and work as a team to achieve our branch targets. I have learnt that i should treat people the same weather they have money or not in their accounts because that person who does not have anything in the account will give you a sale one day.what I enjoy most is that i get to meet new people everyday and I like to engage with them.The most challenging aspects would be when the system is offline and we have to deal with furious client's and again I still have target to achieve. The other thing would be colleagues that are lazy to work and they over work you.
Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Banking sector-they are retrenching staff.

N/A
My Current job role is intensive, always on my feet to assist clients right through the day. i would say the only challenging part of my job would be not having the correct access to certain things which hinders a lot of work progress. which can also be frustrating trying to deliver your best service possible. However throughout my experience working for ABSA, it has been a good journey. i have learnt a lot and believe i am ready to grow further. throughout the work experience at ABSA, there have been good and bad experiences but nothing bad worth mentioning. i would have to say my best experiences are being able to get to work with amazing people and getting my hands dirty with the latest tech
Pros: Great People, Great Tech
Cons: very restricted access to 60% of things

Learning something new
I have been at Absa for just over 4 years and its been a great journey of learning. I love working in teams over and above the daily interactions the learnings is my biggest take away as well as sharing what works for me. I am passionate about developing people. I have learnt over the years never to take anything personally and every person is different.
Pros: Great learning platform
Cons: I need to constantly be learning something new and sharing my learnings
