Yesterday, I finally started working at TalentBee 🐝💤
From my first conversation with Saara and Samuli (almost 2 years ago), where I learned about their mission to create the best workplace for Talent Acquisition professionals, 𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐚𝐲.
That's why my first day at Talentbee felt somewhat surreal.
I know no job is perfect. However, right now, Talentbee feels like the right match for me, with all its pros and cons.

✅ The Bees - Jesse, Nea, Saara, Sami, Samuli & Siiri 🐝💛
🍯 I got the good vibe that this team is truly courageous and skilled.
🍯 I believe in what they are doing, and I want to learn from people who truly inspire and impress me.
✅ I thrive in the innovative, fast-paced, dynamic, and flat hierarchical environment that startups typically offer, characterized by bold risk-taking and a willingness to do things differently.
✅ 4️⃣-day workweek. Fridays are off.
✅ I can work wherever I want within the EU.
✅ They made an effort to bring me on board.

❌ Honestly, my limited proficiency in English makes me nervous about working in English more than I've been used to.
❌ The company doesn't have an office (yet).
❌ I've learned that there are always inherent risks and challenges when working in a startup.
❌ Am I certain about changing jobs, especially after just buying an apartment with a mortgage and considering the new job's 6-month trial period?
