South African Police Service Reviews

 

Great environment, lovely people to work with

The place is great, objectives and goals are always met. The work that is done here help put bad people in jail. Basically as an intern I am trained on how to run GC-MS as well as for its maintenance I also have a project in Raman spectroscopy on NBOME drugs. The challenges I am currently encountering is with the project since it is new so intense research as well as lab work must be done. I have learnt more about GC-MS, Raman spectroscopy as well as how to work with different people, how team work is done and the importance of conducting a thorough report since people's lives and freedoms depend on it.

Pros: Learn how to operate a lot of instruments
Cons: Internship, I am looking for something more permanent

Valuable experience gained

SAPS is a huge employer which strives to satisfy it's employees. Policing a large area, geographically, is a daily challenge with the limited resources at hand, and one can never be satisfied with with the service rendered to the communities. In th police team work is key, as one can never work alone. Relationships are built and you learn to rely on your colleagues for operational reasons. I enjoy the daily challenges of dealing with a variety of charecters and community dynamics. It's a well rewarding job knowing you've done your best to render an effective service. I have gained and learned a lot in my career and In the process I gained skills that enable me to cope with any task given.

Pros: Great place to work, as it also provides for job security
Cons: Careers become stagnant and prospects of growth slowly deminish

Enjoy traveling all over the country to train members in different police academy's

Each day requires data capturing, data updating, minutes taking, broad forward correspondence, replay emails, set up projectors. Monthly IT inspections, I have learned how to always do my atmost best. Do my duties without being monitored. I enjoy giving I Service training to those who need my help. My challenge is to always making sure the risks at the working place are minimized by conducting a risk managent work session arebeing done twice a year.

Working Experience

My work day start @07:30 till 16:00. As a secretary I always try to be neutral as much as I can. I don't get to office politics because I am the link between the employees, visitors, public and the employer. So if I become involved in office politics, my manager will struggle to run his office. I enjoy getting things done within time frame so that the performance of my manager can always improve. The most challenging thing about my job is when people start calling you small manager as because as a Secretary my manager gives a lot of taskings and it becomes my responsibility to ensure that all the taskings are completed on time.

Pros: Great Opportunity
Cons: Unfair work conditions

I'm willing to hand in hand with people or different cultures.Im eager to learn more.

I'm enjoying to work with different people everyday who come with different problems.Eventhough you can't satisfy them in a sameway. It is challenging and difficult because some people they expecting miracles to solve their problems I do have good relationship with my co-workers if the clients come to my Office while busy with other client they assist in order to not keep clients waiting. I have learn more about working with different cultures and to get to know their different behavior and believes. I enjoye the most when I present evidence in the Court of Law ando get good conviction. The most challenging aspects of the job it's when the Victim could not be traced,like if the gave wrong address and contacts not working and never comeback inform you

Pros: To the Company I'm working for you take ten years to be promoted
Cons: Working hours are normal,but sometimes I work more hours without get paid
