Top Insider Advice

You don't need to have 1000 goals, you just need a couple and to know exactly what those are, to articulate a clear road map out to get there and then doing your best is the right thing to do, knowing that we couldn't do better and that the current outcome is the profit of our hard work. Then, by creating a friendly and great environment you will never feel that you are working but just cooperating and having a good time with your mates.

Software Architect

Top Insider Advice

A friend invited me to apply as a software developer, so I did. When I got the results from the assessment test – the examiner informed me that I failed the exam but suggested me a QA position. I immediately jumped on the opportunity without knowing what QA was. The manager offered me that opportunity in the company as he knew my learnability. Nokia provided training, coaching, and mentoring, and I enjoyed the work. As I developed my knowledge, an architecture and specification position opened, and I was excited about it. But I thought I was not yet ready for the role. I consulted my manager about it and asked for his opinion, and he encouraged me to go for it and to try it out. Fast forward to hardship and several leaps of faith, and I am excited to grow and try new things. This year I started my new position. Looking back, I am grateful to mention three key points: 1. Don’t be afraid to try new things. There’s no additional knowledge if you already know it – what is QA? 2. Develop your knowledge. Learning is a never-ending process: if you don’t know – study! 3. How will you know if you don’t try? You might regret it one day if you haven't tried.

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.
