    Billing Administrator
    Jun 2017
    1 to 2 years in the role, current employee
    Taking pride in ensuring the invoices issued and send out monthly as may be agreed from time to time in client's portal
    The good thingsI’m truly passionate about my work and always eager to learn more. While I enjoy all aspects of my job, I think my favorite stage of a project is working with the team members, clients or business unit leader to understand the objectives. As we go through that collaborative process, the problems can be solved and that’s always the fun part.
    The challengesI have faces some challenges in doing billing such as the invalid purchasing order, the powerbase didn't up to date, the client's portal is not friendly user, and lack of team work among team mates.

    No Official Support
    The good thingsThe people are good people, everyone is willing to help, but not in an official sense. You can talk to almost anyone, all the way to the Country Manager, who on the surface seems like a very approachable and forward thinking individual.
    The challengesDespite all the surface views, there is very little official support, there is nil process documentation and everyone is only looking out for themselves. I've seen people more hardy than me, leave because of the tremendous stress levels from not having the right hardware or process.

    The good thingsthe pay is very good and it is being paid promptly as well with the overtime service. and the procedures of the walk in interview is as well excellent, they do as well provide a variance of jobs list and hassle free process where we the customers do not have to try hard for jobs with excellent pay.
    The challengesBut They operate in a free market where the market sets the price. Like any for profit company they seek to maximize their profits. However, they can only make as much as their clients are willing to pay. The staffing agency is not working for us. They are our customer and they determine what they will pay for our skills. If what they want to pay us is not acceptable to us then we are free

    A place to begin your career
    The good thingsThe perks and benefits were good. This is a good place to start your career as it's also a recuitment agency so you'll have options to choose from as to what kind of job will suit you best.
    The challengesThe career growth is limited once they place you in a specific company and getting a permanent position is hard so most likely you'll be stuck as a contractor for quite some time
