Client Service Agent (Former Employee) – Rivonia, Gauteng – 30 December 2018
I only worked for the company for a little over 3 months. But in the time i was there i wasn't too pleased and was frustrated with their style of management. The environment was just just dull and boring with very little prospects of growing within the company.
Marketing was the priority. Time managent and manipulation and how to maneuver everything my work description. Working with different people in an organization.

Bayport financial services is a credit service provider, in the three months of working in the entity at Polokwane, I was involved in selling of loans as a sales agent. A typical day would begin with meeting potential clients in the field and collecting their data for the purposes of assessing their score bearing, if a client is interested n the credit service. The client would be called back and given a response concerning the product. A successful deal would be concluded through contractual signing and commission based remuneration.
Pros
If business goes well, it is financially rewarding.
Cons
It is a commison based work, there is no basic salary.
