What do you like about your job and the company?
I'm motivated by the chance to create impactful onboarding programs for new colleagues. I love collaborating with diverse teams worldwide, which offers constant learning and challenges. Every day is different, and I'm inspired by the variety of topics, cultures, and people I encounter. In addition, a core motivator for me as a people manager is helping my team grow and succeed, knowing they always feel supported.
Greatest achievements
My biggest career challenge, and potentially our leadership's greatest achievement, has been building a new organization from the ground up, within a tight timeframe. This involved establishing our ways of working, designing all processes, creating clear instructions, and rapidly hiring our team. We've focused on ensuring these processes are not only functional but also continuously improved. While we're still in the early stage of this journey, we've made significant strides in navigating the transition period and delivering our best.

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.

If you are seeking a career that will be memorable and impactful, sometimes you may need to step outside of your comfort zone and take a leap into unknown waters. I took the leap twice - once when changing my role function (from accounting to recruiting), and secondly, industry-wise when joining Nokia. I did not regret either of those decisions and I feel this is where I belong. Don't be afraid to pursue your passion, with dedication and consistency your career aspirations can become a reality.
