The Person concern…..
Megan du Plessis is presently a third year student at Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University.
Her work is of a very high standard and she proofs to be exceptionally creative in her approaches. During this time I
developed a very high regard for Megan based on the outstanding contributions that she made to her class and fellow
students.
She has exhibited a rare combination of speed and accuracy that has enabled her to produce a very high volume of work
while maintaining very high standards for quality. Megan was able to follow complex directions in a thorough and detailed
manner and also worked very independently without close supervision when it was appropriate. Rarely did staff need to
explain a process or procedure to her more than once and she was particularly proficient at learning all sorts of
applications and skills.
Megan’s upbeat demeanor and can do attitude brightened the class and made her a very low maintenance student. Her
strong human relations skills enabled her to interface very effectively with many different types of students and lecturers.
Megan’s strong verbal and written communications skills allowed her to relay information in a clear and coherent
manner. Megan is a naturally caring person with a strong helping orientation who consistently demonstrated a solid
service orientation towards fellow students
As you can tell by now, I am quite impressed with this outstanding young woman and give her my strongest
recommendation for roles which require design, intelligence, organization, communication skills, service and a positive
attitude. Please feel free to contact me if you need additional information or perspective.
