South African Post Office Reviews

 

Excellent learning curve

- Working for SA Post Office has been a great experience and it has taught me a lot with the years. In my role I am self monitoring and make deadlines without being monitored. My day involve attending meetings and taking minutes for Executives and top management. - I have a good relationship with my colleagues where we work individually and in teams when there are projects. - I have learnt to be independent, how to do projects, Formatting and editing of micro soft documents. - I enjoy most the fact that it is not a routine job and that makes it challenging. It helps one to learn new things while interacting with other people. - The most challenging aspect of my job is that it bears a lot of privacy, confidentiality and discreet. The other challenge is that you get to be trusted with a lot of work and also due to efficiency which result in being overloaded with too much work.

Pros: There is much to learn in my current job as it is vast and you interact with different people including external bodies.
Cons: Long working hours, no evertime due to the current state of affairs, over burdened with other peoples work,

Hardworker and teamplayer

I am a team player, with outstanding people skills as well as interaction skills resulting in strong relationships with both employer and team members. I pay a lot of attention to the finer details, and display endless initiative in everything that I do. Having the highest regards for customer satisfaction, I believe that I would be a valuable asset to your Company. I am reliable and trustworthy and given the chance, believe that I could make an enormous contribution towards the profitability of your organisation. In terms of leadership skills, my strongest quality is leading by example, which I believe goes a long way when motivating a team. I have learnt a lot on how to negotiate, requesting quotes, comparison of rates being charged by suppliers in saving the company's money. What is most challenging is when jobs are not done upon agreed time.

Pros: Promotion
Cons: working on sundays

Good working eniviroment and I ahve grown

The current is a good company to work at and the workload. currently I have two auditors working under me. I have built a good relationship with staff and management to ensure the achievement of the audit plan with quality work performed. I have to work extreme extensive hours to ensure the work is completed . when join the company it was a new internal audit department which was outsource to service provider and I have made the Audit Committee believed in the in-house audit team due to the work performed and detailed assurance provided. I enjoyed helping management to be able to work and implement the internal controls required to mitigate the risk that may impact the achievement of the organisational goals. The most challenging aspect of the Job is to help the organisation to come out of the qualification, however this challenge has made me to work differently and to be able to communicate the solutions to Management.

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: working long hours
