    All Canberra ACT3 to 4 years in the role, former employee
    My experience during my time with the company was rewarding a supported my growth towards future roles.
    The good thingsMassive opportunity for growth. Having moved up through various roles over 3 years was a very rewarding experience. Extremely flexible with accommodating my hours as I studied part time. Great culture and work colleagues. The ability to learn unique skills and contribute to the growth of the company was an invaluable experience.
    The challengesThere is a large amount of product knowledge, company procedures and a difficult software system to grasp. This can be challenging at first and may take some months to become proficient in your role. The team is very patient and great with expectation management and training. Over time, the tricky parts of the job become second naturr but requires you to have a persistent mindset. The skills you develop from encountering these challenges became a massive benefit when it came time to move on and utilise these skills elsewhere.
