Why/why not?
Do you have any final comments?
We encountered some concern regarding the fast
manpower turnover in the warehouse. She was
straightforward with regards to the process compliance.
Team members that are hesitant in changes either
resign or file complaints against her. This was settled by
documenting all the non-compliant employees and
mediated by the HR and implement the necessary
sanctioned by on company policies.
Her team can always count on her on decision making,
operation support & team development. She's a role
model in terms of punctuality, she only fails to show up
to work when she's sick but she will speak up if she is
already tired & stressed and needs a vacation. She
addresses everyone with professionalism and with high
respect.
She is well rounded on MS office especially in excel,
she is also an experienced user of Netsuite. She always
express herself with professionalism
If we can, we will, but right now we are reorganizing our
company to be more suitable to the changes of the
economy & customer needs.
She has the skills, competency and professionalism that
makes her suitable for the position she handled in our
company.
