"Working at HSO provides me with one tremendous decisive benefit, and that’s the employees and colleagues I work with. For me personally, the best thing about working at HSO is having a team and colleagues I enjoy working with and with whom I also have very good relationships across the board."

A major international company

I joined HSO directly after completing my master’s degree in customer relationship management at the Technical University of Chemnitz. After my studies, I started my job search in my home town of Stuttgart. HSO was one of the first places I contacted. It’s a major international company, it’s based in the Stuttgart area, and it gave me the opportunity to work in customer relationship management. The decision to apply was a very easy one, and I’ve never regretted it!

I’ve been with HSO for almost two years now. I joined the company as a Young Professional. I’ve followed a relatively traditional path, and I’ve been able to work my way up to become a consultant. As a result, I’ve taken on more responsibility, both in terms of projects and in my role at HSO.

Project teams are clearly structured

My team at HSO consists of colleagues from the CE (Customer Engagement) area, and it includes developers, solution architects, and consultants. It’s a mixture of different roles. There are six people on our team, and once a week we have a short meeting where we exchange information about the various projects we’re working on and discuss open topics and questions.

Our project teams are more clearly structured. We have individual consultants, solution architects, and developers, as well as a project manager who leads both the entire project and the team. They also maintain a structured approach to ensure that the project runs smoothly.

"Finally, perhaps one of the biggest benefits that HSO offers is allowing me to work without being tied to an office. We can work from home and, in principle, from anywhere. That’s a level of flexibility and freedom that you just don‘t find everywhere. For me, personally, it’s definitely one of the major pluses about working at HSO."

Be yourself

When you‘re applying to HSO, I can only recommend not trying to portray yourself as something you’re not. That’ll get you nowhere. As I said, our HR team does a great job of selecting the best fit for each team, so there’s no point in pretending to be anything other than your authentic self, if that’s what HSO’s looking for. So just be yourself. Come to the interview and talk to people, and everything will take care of itself.

Like-minded people and similar personalities together

Working at HSO provides me with one tremendous decisive benefit, and that’s the employees and colleagues I work with. For me personally, the best thing about working at HSO is having a team and colleagues I enjoy working with and with whom I also have very good relationships across the board.

I’ve also never had an issue with any of my colleagues on a project; in fact, it’s always been the case that everybody works very well together. I have to say that our HR team also does a very good job of putting like-minded people and similar personalities together.
