University of The Free State Reviews

 

Best opportunity.

most I find it very amazing to work at UFS as it is a diverse workplace, therefore on a typical day, one thing to ensure is an appealing and positive attitude. My relationship with co-workers was good because I possess strong interpersonal skills.I have learnt to strategize and plan my work so that to give clients a proper assistance. I enjoyed learning about the different actions and behaviors of the diverse cultures. The most challenging part is raking with different behaviors of people each day and having to act professional, positive and always calm part is raking with different behaviors of people each day and having to act professional, positive and always calm.

Pros: Great opportunity to work with different people and get to know different cultures
Cons: Different attitudes and different cultures

I can be an administrator or personal Assistant

I found work as my happy place because it enables me to what i like, keeping important information while communicating with different people. I have a good relationship with co-workers in a way that every team work succeed beyond the expectations. I have learnt that it is okay to listen to someone, no metter what position held because he might have important information. I enjoy solving people's problems, motivating them to perform better in the organisation. It's challenging to meet difficult people but it is fun, I feel the victory after winning.

Pros: No promotion
Cons: 2 hours
