My name is Sizwe Felix Mhlongo, im 21 years of age, I was born in a small town called Driekoppies in Nelspruit (MPUMALANGA PROVINCE).
I completed my matric in 2014 in a school called Driekoppies Combined School and in 2015 I enrolled with Tshwane North tvet College (Temba Campus) where I did FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT introductory N4 thereafter N4 to N6 of which I’ve completed in June 2017.
Work Experience
*Unfortunately I don’t have any previous work experience
Why Financial Management N6
I believe that someone got to start somewhere in the process of becoming one of the most highly reputable and dignified Chartered Accountantant in South Africa so Financial Management was a starting point for me I love working with numbers, and accounting is my passion and besides that, there is only few or a minority of black accountants out there so I want to put my name on the map as well plus the benefits are pretty much good.
Internship
A friend of mine whom I was attending with at the Campus advised me to register with the GWCONNECT website and ensure that my profile was 100% complete of which I did that immediately and after a few days I received a call from the Outex Chartered Accountants guys situated in Brooklyn opposite Chamberlain hardware whereby they were inviting me for an interview, I went there and I was interviewed, deep down my heart I knew that I have already passed the interview, to me attending it, it was just for formality reasons.
