Nov 2014 - Dec 2015
My own words ♛ "I never studied Online Marketing at a University, for that reason, my journey was all the more exciting. Learning the trade, trialing new methods, taking my errors and archiving them for good were highlights. This job taught me that knowledge is not power, its a privilege. The power is: willing to expose yourself to new ideas and taking time to execute them professionally." I worked online using services such as Google Adwords / all mainstream Social Media / WordPress. We specialized in Search Engine Optimization, keyword research and many other forms of online marketing. TSEM works in affiliation with big name clients with the goal of making their services relevant on Google's overpopulated search engine. http://www.tailoredsem.com/ Show less

Aug 2012 - Dec 2014 . Worked on SAP (operating system) My own words ♛ "I had to adapt, but still enjoying my role here. I am marketing & perhaps more of the expressive type of individual. Following a linear set of guidelines to complete my tasks here is the only downfall. Talking to UK based clients certainly expands your confidence and makes you a real trouble shooter".

Internship (A.P.O - Assistant Professional Officer)

Mar 2011 - Oct 2011
My own words ♛ "I would love to assume that we covered a hundred locations in my short time here. I spoke to audiences (addressing a crowd: something people would not necessarily associate me with). My theory is: Take the most reserved person in the world, put them in-front of a crowd of 100 thousand people. They may stutter and choke on their own words for an hour. After a while the opposite will happen, comfort will be a constant." My daily tasks were as follows: - General office duties: typing, feedback, taking images, driving. - Completed 8 Marketing/advertising University portfolio's - Media liaison - Public speaking - Writing newspaper articles - Exhibitions: Organizing of promotional materials before and during exhibitions and presentations Show less

My own words ♛ "One month of packing cold food items. Thank you to Woolworths Constantia for the opportunity. I have always been privileged, my parents were there, i had a great education. At the same time I was always exposed to the rich | poor and middle class parts of society. Working here is not a position to be frowned upon but it certainly felt like tier-1 when it comes to career progression. I cant say I don't appreciate being the shopper rather than the person 'looking after the shop." My Duties: logistics of food items assisting customers Show less
