It’s hard to believe but I have finished my first week of work at London South Bank University. As I reflect on the week past, I can honestly say this job is going to work out nicely. The people are warm and friendly and most importantly, they are eager to answer any query I might have.
In addition, I was able to gain valuable insight into my job duties and responsibilities. As a Course Administrator for two courses (MSc International Marketing and MSc International Business), I will be busy organizing meetings, submitting documents and dealing with student queries. Yet, I will be able to enjoy my nights and weekends, which will allow me to travel and sightsee (the whole reason I came abroad).
Apparently, they have had a difficult with former employees who worked my position and similar positions in the office. The rules governing LSBU and the UK are different from the States, which makes it harder to fire bad employees.
Alas, the course directors are excited to have me and I’m excited at the opportunity!
