My name is Mdletshe Nokukhanya Samukelisiwe and I grew up in a rural area called Hluhluwe in KZN.  I was fortunate and landed an opportunity to be an intern at the Department of home Affairs where I was placed in the Finance Department. During my time as an Intern I learnt a lot about time management, dedication to my work, and working as part of a team. My allocated duties and tasks included:

• Capturing the daily invoices to keep record,
• Receiving and making calls both internally and to external clients,
• Preparing quotations for our office needs,
• Depositing cash timeously,
• Controlling the issuing of petty cash and also replenishing of petty cash,
• Processing payment of invoices within 30 days
• Controlling proper budgeting,
• Filing finance records,
• Ensuring the Monthly Paymaster General is submitted monthly,
• Making the marriage bookings for clients, and
• Assisting at Civil Services Department.

Today, I am so confident about myself and I am holding a diploma in Business management. I wish that Insika Foundation should continue to assist other learners as they me. I am grateful!
