KAREN VAN SCHALKWYK Snr Secretary Centurion, South Africa Dear Sir / Madam My name is Karen van Schalkwyk and I have been employed as a Senior Secretary / Personal Assistant in the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform for the last 13 years. I have worked in a high profile office for the Deputy Director-General: Spatial Planning and Land Use Management (DDG: SPLUM). I was assigned to this office to ensure the smooth running of the DDG's office and to administer her diary and travel demands alongside various secretarial duties. The work experience and knowledge that I have gained during this time is of immeasurable value. Long working hours, commitment and going the extra mile to get the work done are but a few working skills that had to be acquired to effectively run the office of the DDG. The finest detail had to be implemented to every assignment received in the office of the DDG in order to adhere to deadlines and protocol. I obtained my Secretarial Diploma: Human Resources in the year 2015 and have been responsible for the taking of Minutes during meetings, preparing documents for meetings such as Agendas, Minutes and Action Lists, compile Travel and Substance Claims for expenses incurred by the DDG, doing overseas and local flight and accommodation bookings, administer all incoming emails on behalf of the DDG ensuring that all assignments are attended to and finalised timeously. Respect, integrity, professionalism and high working ethics are of the utmost important characteristics that any Secretary / Personal Assistant should have. I matriculated in 1985 and joined the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) from 1992 until 2003. I was employed as a Senior Personnel Clerk during this period. I resigned from the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform last year and my last working day was 30 September 2018. I can commence working for any Company who would want to employ me with immediate effect. I trust that you will find the above in order. Yours faithfully Karen van Schalkwyk Gmail: ****@*****.***
