The hardest part of my job is having to inform the administrators / managers that their request could not be carried out (usually this is out of control). Either Courier Company has failed a deadline or an I.T. issue results in failure of a particular request.

Good company offering good benefits. Varied work role with chance to progress within the company.

I interned at Towers part time while taking classes. I didn't necessarily feel like I was contributing to the team at all time; a lot of the work I did is what I believe to be stereotypical intern work. That being said, I did have a couple projects that I enjoyed, and my coworkers were friendly and willing to help.

Manage and balance the daily finance invoice that were recieved. You must also make sure the rates, draft invoice and mark ups were correct and then complete a final invoice which would then go to the finance management team.
