I started working since 2000... or somewhere close. I worked during the summer in a factory that was producing clothes for export. Then "the brands" were unknown to me. I didn't imagine that one day I'll be able to buy clothes from "x" or "y". Time passed and now... they have stores open in Romania, selling their articles at enormous prices, after producing so cheap in my hometown.
My "career" in that field ended in 2005. I was already in Bucharest for a year. But I never thought of finding a job here. In 2006 the situation was different. And I thought ... why not? So, few days before going home someone called me asking if I can go to an interview. I said yes. Went there. Found out what I have to do. How much they pay. How much I have to work. What I have to do. Said yes without thinking too much. It was my dream to work and to be able to remain in Bucharest. Initially it was a job for the summer. But it changed in a part time during faculty. And 2 years passed like this.
In 2008 I was finishing the last year of faculty. I thought that it would be a great time to change my job and try to do something new. So... searching started again. Interviews and license degree. These were my main occupations. 'till... I found them. Or they found me :). One of my actual bosses called me asking if I'm going to come or not to the interview. I was like... what? What interview? No one told me! Ooo... I apologize. Ok.
Later I was called by the recruitment company. Asked to go to the interview. Went there. They interviewed me. And proposed to go with them in a team-building the second day. It seemed crazy, but I went. It was nice. So... I started working with them on the 1st of July 2008. Met wonderful people. Who learned me to be good. To become better. To enlarge my perspectives. To see new aspects in life. First I was an Administrative Assistant. After 3 months I received new tasks. 6 months later I became the Manager's Assistant. 1 year and 3 months later... the story ended.
In 2010... With a university degree and a master degree... I started to search a job. And I found one. As an Office Manager. This is what I do now. The first job without an interview. Based on a recommendation. Met great people. Done many new things. Had to deal new situations. Organize things. The biggest challenge? To be multitasking on multiple projects. Give to everyone the needed information.
Had lots of good times with these people. Team-building. Launch party. Christmas party. Launch party. Team-building. In just 6 months. Let's see what the future is going to offer from now on.
Special thanks to: people I met during the years of my professional life for sharing their time with me.
