Overall a good place to work. Clear instruction has been given. Also the teachers are nice and colleague are helpful. Easy to know what I should do from the beginning.
Love the work environment. Sometimes it gets crazy around the busy times, but still, everyone is so helpful and thoughtful. Management really cares about us. Your voice can be heard, it doesn't fall on deaf ears like other workplaces. People are nice and easy going. Very well looked after as a staff member.
The University of Auckland is a nice place to work, however, management does not place much value on the staff. That aside, all the staff are very friendly and make the day go by quickly.
Very relaxed but higher up CEO's are slightly corrupt.

Being a research assistant is fun at the University of Auckland. The professor is nice and considerable, it is easy to negotiate with them about the working time and work deadlines.
You will be provided comprehensive training before you go to a practical interview. From the training they will teach you tips to ask the questions, relax the interviewees and other skills.
The research fellows are all very nice. You will have equal opportunity to involve in different part of research instead of doing a set of fixed tasks.
It is fun to interact people with multi-cultural backgrounds and see how the trends had changed during the years.

Office duties within the student registry department. Altogether a wonderful place to work. Work included a lot of data entry, a lot of trouble shooting of computer data entry functions, introduction of checking procedures.
Pros
Offered opportunities to learn.
Cons
Not so easy to advance up work ladder.
Universities are great places to work especially with students and hardworking staff. I enjoy working at the University but require changes to explore better opportunities to suit me. I have developed through many years working at the University and look forward to more career challenges in life.

Any issue arises, update information and to communicate to huge group of people to maintain the tranparency
