 |  Thoughts, we all have them. What is yours? |
| Prompt #3: Choose a job you have (or have held in the past) and discuss the skills required. Explain why each skill is needed and how they can be learned. I was a manager for an apartment complex for several years. This was a job that required both husband and wife or two individuals. We had 42 units, carports, to maintain. My husband and myself had done this job before so training with limited. We needed a refresher course on Section 8 Housing (government assistance). One thing that was stressed was to have legible handwriting and printing because you would be posting receipts manually. You need to be focus when collecting rents and posting. Training in this field usually is done by watching someone take you through a posting. Part of the job may require you to take monies to the bank. Therefore, you would need some type of transportation. Part of the job may require you doing actual work on the premises. I have in the past cleaned apartments, painted and sweeping carports. Usually this will gain you additional payment over and above what is agreed to. Compensation usually consist of an apartment and salary or a mix of one or the other and additional payment for jobs such as painting and cleaning. Usually you must be bonded. In California where I held this job, you may be required to post 3 day notices or 30 day notices and followup with law enforcement. So, to acquire this position you must be able to be bonded and live on the premises if required. For a position in California, 12 units or more required management on site. This type of position is easily trainable. You must have the stamina to deal with all types of people and their problems. |
