Arc Reviews

 

I would love to learn newe things and grew in my career.

When one enter the building into he morning, we look forward to great laughs, PCR and agarose gels in the afternoon. The diagnostic work that I do include verification of reports, diagnostic and surveillance testing for the animal industry. The work I do is considered very important for the economy of our country. We pride ourselves in that we are ensuring that the people of South Africa we enjoy their meat with any viruses that could harm them. I do understand that as a meat lover, you will enjoy your steak medium or rare without the hustle and wonder if it is safe for consumption. The meat has formed a great part of our daily conversations with lunch even breakfast as everyone discussed their recipes to outdo the previous chicken or beef. We understand that food is medicine thus the meat we eat must be great time managers and learn better methods to improve diagnostic tools. I enjoyed working with cell-cultures and molecular biology.

Pros: Great opportunities to study and advance my career
Cons: Not many opportunities for promotions
