I can't believe there is only a month and a few weeks before the end of my coop term! Time has definitely been going by way too fast. A lot of the same things have been going on this month but I feel like I am getting more efficient at my job as I continually come up with more effective ways of doing my job, streamlining my work. I feel like I have gotten better with my organizational skills and have been better with being able to multi task and complete a wide array of different tasks each day. I have also gotten better with my communication skills as I have developed a good dependable bond with coworkers and supervisors that I work with. I will be very sad when the day comes and I will have to leave them all behind.
When it comes to solving problems and dealing with everyday situations that come up be it investigations, discipline, or other problems that come up I feel that I have improved knowledge to make a call. My analytical skills as well as my improved professionalism and confidence has also played a big part in aiding me.
This month I am mostly concentrated on overseeing the apprenticeship project from the beginning to the end. This process will consist of gathering all the applicants, booking them in for a time to write an exam, and conducting an interview in order to choose a qualified candidate for our apprenticeship program. Another project that I am responsible for overseeing is the launching of the new lenel system in which I have to help with the information session and distribution of cards to all members of the site. It really is an extensive process and requires a lot of planning and organizational work.
Asides from my two huge projects, I am continuing to meet recruitment demands, be involved with a Aboriginal Career Fair for kids in Jr. High, conduct exit interviews, and compile a Coop Manual of step by step procedures of all the projects that I have been working on.
There is way too much to do and way too little time!
