Work experience at DG Business Services Chartered Accountants
Over the past 12 months I have been working in a family run business assisting with scanning, renaming and archiving folder systems within the firm. This entailed carefully listening to instructions and understanding the electronic filing system to ensure correct categorisation occurred. Time management skills came into use in planning work schedule for the hours available as well as recognising when to ask questions.
Assisted with training sessions for younger year sports groups in both rugby and water polo.
Offered car washing services to neighbours
Participated in the Bike Rescue Program run by Wesley College outside of school hours. This program entailed fixing up old or broken bikes back to efficient working order to donate back to those in need within the community.
I found this program very rewarding as I have always enjoyed working on bikes and improving their performance. Being able to do this to provide working bikes to the community was very satisfying and motivating.
I fixed over bikes during my time in the program, which was the largest number of bikes turned over by a student of my year. Teaching other students how to fix different components was also rewarding.
