FACE 2 FACE
With Vicky Mostert Conveyancing Secretary
Q : What do you like about what you do?
A : The work that I do is very interesting. I get to communicate with other companies and their people and I have my own duties that I can progress in. I am a people’s person, so for me, I love it.
Q: What is the most important thing you have learnt in your career?
A: I have learnt that consistency is key. Hard work pays off and that no-one should stand in your way of success.
I know I am still young but you surprise yourself once you really step in and set that goal.
Q: Did you always want to be a secretary?
A: No, I always wanted to have a job outside the office space.
I was never into offices until I got the opportunity. I must say I am enjoying it and love it. You never know if you never try.
Q: Are there any books you have read that have had an impact on you?
A: I do not really read books but what has stuck by me is a quote: “Do not let others define or determine your worth.”
Q: Is there any mantra/ belief that you try to live by?
A: The one thing I had to learn and try to live by is to know my self-worth and to know I am good enough. Even if it is just for myself. Nobody should determine the person you are.
Do things for you and not others. Whatever you put in your mind, put it into action. I also do fail sometimes but I try my best and pick myself up.
Q: What is your best memory/ experience on the job?
A: When I first started working here I had no idea that I was going to learn, and the best feeling was getting everything right.
Also my best memories are with staff during lunchtime where we would talk and have fun.
Q: What are your other interests?
A: I would say playing guitar, meeting up with friends and going places outside of town.
Q: One thing you must do before you die?
A: Go to Greece.
Q: What do you always have on you when you leave the house?
A: My handbag, and my vape.
Q: What do you like about Komani?
A: I have lived here my whole life so I would say the mountains around Komani, and the small-town vibe.
