Waiter, Craft Gourmet
Andrew learned about WAVE from an
alumnus. Prior to this, he was a job seeker. He had lost his job because his
former employer closed down the hotel where he worked. He came to WAVE because
he heard that he could get a job – exactly what he needed desperately at the
time.
On getting to WAVE, what fascinated
Andrew the most was the quality of the training he encountered; how very intensive
and mind-opening he found it.
Andrew job-shadowed at Southern Sun
where he learned how to lay bed and how to use a dry-cleaning machine. He also
worked with the Career Services Department (of
which company?) as an intern. This was where he picked up skills on data
management.
He was able to secure a job three
months after going through WAVE Academy. He got employed as a waiter at Craft
Gourmet Restaurant. In his seven months on the job, Andrew’s biggest lesson has
been “that getting the job is not really what matters; keeping it is the real
work’’.
The most important skills he
learned at WAVE, which he applies on his job, are time management and
listening.
