Receptionist Reviews
What is it like working as a Receptionist?
March 2016
Receptionist are not well compensated.
Receptionist:
My advice if you are a young person please try another career not well compensated for the face of the company.
March 2016
Solving problems.
Receptionist:
To be more careful when taking and writing numbers down( very important), to be able to put up with criticisms, any kind, deal with aggressive customer, to be a good listener and have a friendly welcoming personality.
February 2016
More like an administrative assistants work.
Receptionist:
Pros: I don't have someone micromanaging me. I know what I need to do and I get it done. I work independently and at my own fast pace.
Cons: I don't have any kind of relationship with my boss. In the three years that I've worked here I don't think she's ever asked me how my day was going or how school was going. I feel extremely unappreciated considering that I process and track an average of 75-100 orders on a monthly basis. I'm essentially a purchasing agent as well as a receptionist.
February 2016
Awesome.

February 2016
Stress level.
Receptionist:

February 2016
Need for salary increase.

I need a salary revision.No receptionist with a National diploma and extensive experience should earn less than R10000.00 A MONTH.
February 2016
Receptionist:
Always be kind---you never know what another person is going through or been through.
