Here is what people who joined the Finance team want to share with you:

“When I began working at scandiweb, I was still a university student, and this was my first real job related to my field of study. A fellow student referred me, and I was thrilled to join a company where I could work both from home and the office, allowing me to live in my small hometown while making regular office visits every week. Despite the challenges every day, the support from my team made them manageable and turned each obstacle into a learning opportunity.

My skills and knowledge have grown significantly through my work at scandiweb. I am proud to be part of such a rapidly growing and ambitious company, whose name is getting more recognizable worldwide. Not only have my professional skills flourished, but my confidence in English has improved dramatically, when I started, I was quite shy and not very confident in my English.

scandiweb has taught me that anything is possible if you just take the leap!”

“I was still studying at University when I started looking for my first “grown up” job in the Finance field. Stumbling upon scandiweb’s ad I was immediately interested, as a friend of mine was already working in the company and had only good things to say. So I applied for the vacancy, went through the interview process, and got accepted!

Since September 2021, I have learned a lot, for example, VLOOKUP and QUERY functions FTW! Just kidding - as much as I learned to appreciate the efficient use of Excel functions (they can really save you some time), the most valuable quality was definitely gaining self-confidence and belief in my skills and abilities.I consider myself extremely lucky to have started my career in a team as supportive and open as ours - this allowed me to learn a lot more, a lot faster.

I’ve also made a lot of great memories thanks to office life and our events, and I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next!”
