Company

What do you like about your job and the company?

I really enjoy the problem-solving aspect of my role—every case is a new challenge that pushes me to think critically and collaborate with talented teams. Working closely with developers and support engineers gives me a deeper understanding of the product and helps me grow technically. What I appreciate about Nokia is its innovative culture, supportive environment, and the opportunity to contribute to solutions that have a global impact.

Greatest achievements

One of my proudest achievements was serving as a student ambassador, where I organized fun and engaging events that helped build a strong sense of community. I’m now continuing that passion at Nokia as an ambassador for the NextGEN (new hire) community, where I aim to create similar experiences that connect and support new employees. In my technical role, I’ve also contributed to solving complex customer issues through 3LS support, helping improve product reliability and customer satisfaction.

Top Insider Advice

I learned with my own personal experience, that we only know better our own culture, education, bias, and our own self, when we have lived at least few years in a different country and different culture (especially amongst locals). These (many years living in different countries and cultures) have expanded my horizon and my own identity, both professionally and especially personally. There is an emotional cost of "expatriating" oneself, but it is also truly a gift. There are many things that we cannot fully comprehend with only short visit, books or else, they have to be experienced over and over.

Top Insider Advice

Your dreams show what you can become. They are your hopes, what you love, and the future you want. Always be ready to learn new things. Learning helps you grow. Identify your fears and challenge them. Don't let fear hold you back from pursuing your goals and taking risks. Take responsibility for your growth, development, and success. Don't wait for others to empower you; empower yourself. Don't be afraid to ask questions, even if you think they might sound basic. Asking questions demonstrates curiosity and a desire to learn.
