Khadija Hoosain

My name is Khadija Hoosain and I am currently pursuing a Master of Commerce degree in Industrial Psychology at Stellenbosch University. I have also completed an Honours degree in Organisational Psychology at the University of Cape Town (UCT) in the year 2018. I am currently in the process of completing my second year / dissertation only (Masters 2), as a student psychologist (HPCSA).

I am applying for this position as I currently have 16 months of work experience as an Employee Wellness administrative assistant within the Human Capital department for a state owned entity (staff complement of +-400). I have also had the opportunity to improve my computer skills by completing an advanced MS Word and MS Excel course via the company as per their learning and development requirements. The nature of my current job as a support coach (15 months) at UCT Online High School (Valenture Institute) requires me to work under pressure while juggling various tasks and demands. 

I believe that my skills thus far will allow me to work brilliantly in a team and individually where my previous work experience and my current work exposure have equipped me with the leadership skills necessary to engage well in any work environment. Furthermore, I thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative and innovative environment and I am confident that if I am granted this opportunity, I will be able to showcase my skills, knowledge and attitude that I have gained throughout my studies and work experience to excel at my job. 

I thank you sincerely for considering my application and if successful, I commit to making this a positive experience and will apply myself fully in the learning and development of this opportunity. I look forward to hearing from you.
