My name is Mulibane Mulaedza and I have completed my Bachelor of Commerce in Accounting Degree. I’ve always been a detail-oriented person who enjoys working with numbers, solving problems, and understanding how businesses operate financially. These interests naturally led me to pursue a career in accounting and finance.
Work Experience
*Before my internship, I gained some practical experience through part-time work and volunteering. I worked as a cashier and assistant bookkeeper for a small retail store, where I helped with daily sales reconciliations and learned the basics of accounting software. I also volunteered at a local NGO, helping them organize receipts and prepare reports for their annual audit. These small but meaningful experiences gave me insight into the world of finance and built the foundation for my future career.
Why Degree in Finance/Commerce

I wanted a qualification that would give me both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to succeed in the business world.
