Productive

Legal Typist (Former Employee) - Blacktown NSW - 19 February 2016

A lot of dictaphone typing of legal documents. Learnt a lot about community services and youth work. My co-workers were wonderful people. The hardest part of the job was having to return abused children back to an unstable environment. The most enjoyable part of the job was being able to assist young, troubled youth.
