A good working environment
My work experience includes on the job training while working for Masvingo Diocese for a period of approximately 5 years as a teacher, evangelizer and administrator. Later, as a lecturer at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa I had overall responsibility for diploma and certificate courses, planning, leadership of the community service team and internal auditing of procedures. As a student, my role is to ensure integrity and team work in the educational system. I am conversant with IT applications such as MS Word and Excel. All in all, I have approximately 7 years of dedicated professional employment, as highlighted in my attached resume. My career has seen me exposed to a variety of learning institutions, both public and private. I view myself as an all rounder.
Pros: Many learning opportunities
Cons: Long working hours

Excelent in working with people and with ICT projects
I work with people of about 200, per day. some days I receive higher volume of clients and they that caused them to be impatient so I am able to deal with them and change complains into compliments. When ever I am around my co-workers they can lean on me , I can assist them in work related matters, give advise and sometimes take action eg when an employee disobeys the code of conduct for a number of times. To serve at the hospital as a deputy chairperson of the board helped me to learn on management issues, decision making, planning and organising and making useful creative inputs to the organisation that will benefit it and improve the quality of work or service delivered. What I enjoy most is the human resource function, selections, shortlisting, interviewing, training and giving feedback to candidates. The most challenging aspects of the job is disciplining and enforcing the policies and code of conduct to employees.
Pros: labour relations specialist
Cons: Travelling long distances

My Unisa,My Learning Centre
My everyday to my place of business starts most likely at 7h30 and seldomely at 08h00. Its a lot of smitting handshake from eversmiling workmates, from the off loading zone of busses and mete taxis to lifts and escalators. My work reception is infectiously a happy beginning. Its tae while drawing my daily workplan infussing it with commom occurrances such checking and responding to emails, reading previously pasted reminders which will pop again once my desk top os awakened. Will peep into my supervisors office for office errands. This is my everyday learning curve as I will be inundated loads of works to meet for the coming six hours. I will sort errands according to order of urgent requisite. I enjoy what many find it time consuming and disgusting, that is meetings. Meetings are confluences of creative intuitive ideas,solidifying culture of organisation and platforms for new strategic adoption.
Pros: Everyday Area of Continuous Learning
Cons: None

Great environment of work
During a typical work week, one of my biggest tasks is checking in on my staff and assessing their progress on various projects. I like to meet first thing on Monday to discuss our priorities for the week, then meet again in the middle of the week to check progress, and meet once at the end of the week to discuss goal setting for the next week. I meet with smaller groups of my staff during the middle of the week to troubleshoot any issues. For example, during a recent mid-week meeting, I noticed one team was a few days behind on a long-term project. I met with the team and, together, we came up with a strategy for increasing efficiency among the team. Along with constant interaction with my team, I also attend a weekly board meeting where I present my department’s progress to the executive board. On Fridays, once all these tasks are completed, I make sure I have completed all necessary communication for the week via email and in person, and create a list of priorities for next week.
Pros: I’ve read about it on your website, and I think it’s a fabulous company. Not only would I get all the training for my role, but I would be on the fast track to be in executive role. That’s my top career goal. Plus, my ideal path would include working abroad for a couple of years. I understand that it’s of value to you to find people prepared to do so
Cons: Preparing myself and make sure all run smooth with jeopardizing my scope of work

Good environment for working and studying simultaneously
My work involves a variety of roles and responsibilities; ranging from preparing study materials, preparing lecture notes, and undertaking my own research for publication purposes. A typical workday includes giving lectures, liaising with students and attending to problems and difficulties they might encounter. My relationship with my colleagues is cordial and we get along with each other very well. I have learnt the importance of being patient in life, as good things take time to happen. The part I enjoy most about my position is engaging with students and listening to their ideas and future plans.
Pros: Great environment to study and work in, allows opportunities to grow and pursue higher goals.
Cons: Only employ South African Citizens and do not consider applicants who hold Permanent Residence status

Excellent platform to showcase my skills
It is a great platform to showcase my skills and enrich my knowledge. I have done well at any task that i was assigned to but its so unfortunate that we were not offered permanent positions.Their salary package is good but only on a contract so I guess that just how our government view us,as temporary survivors.I believe that i will make it a different in the company that i will work and always strive for the exceptional.
Pros: Excellent learning curve
Cons: Contract expires
