Finance & Accounting officer – PT Sighohoku Indonesia — subsidiary of PT Duta Anugrah Damai Sejahtera, a contracting company.
In the professional world, we are often demanded to finish a job we have had no knowledge about before. Not everyone is willing and ready to learn new things given a very short time. But it all doesn’t matter for us because at ITHB we used to learn new things the fast way. It taught us about quick problem solving at work. The courses I took, including the ITHB Microsoft training and SAP certification, are very useful for my work now.
