Studying in Poland, having two summer jobs in England, doing
one internship in India, working in Thailand for half a year and now working in
Prague. Does it seem an adventure? Well it is and I will tell you how I came to
have this international experience.
Dzien Dobry! My name is Wojciech Jurojc, I am Polish and I
am currently a Business Development
Consultant within Oracle, based in Prague. I joined Oracle on the 1st of August
2011. I graduated in 2010 and obtained 2 Masters Degrees in Political Science and
Economics.
I would like to tell you more about my past and how I joined
Oracle. In 2005 I began studying at the Faculty of Political Sciences Gdansk
University. In 2008, I obtained a Bachelors Degree. During these three years I
had the opportunity to go to England twice, where I worked as a Bartender,
first in Blackpool and then in Manchester. This allowed me to improve my
language skills and become more confident. In the meantime, I joined the
International Student Organization-AIESEC, where I was organized conferences
and conducted student projects. Also I met a mass of interesting people from
around the world. After graduation in 2008, I was able to get an Internship
within a big company in Poland. I worked there as an Intern in the Purchase
Department. That was my first adventure within a corporate environment. I
learnt a lot about purchasing processes and negotiations.
In September 2008, I started studying two Masters Faculties:
Political Science and Economics. It was very difficult, but it was not impossible.
Over the next two years of studying I was able to go on a three month
internship to India where I worked as a Marketing Assistant in an NGO. I was
travelling around northern India and did presentations to the academic
community about green energy and environmental projects. I had the opportunity
to visit Nepal and walked in the Himalayas. That was a huge experience as well
as a cultural shock. It taught me how to deal with many problems and to
appreciate what I have.
At the end of 2009 I was working as a Marketing Assistant
for a Leasing company, where I learnt useful sales knowledge and improved my
objection handling skills. In July 2010, I graduated with a double Masters and
found a job in Thailand as Sales Representative in an IT company. I worked in
Thailand until the end of January 2011. Besides that, I was working in an
International company with interesting people and I had the opportunity to
travel around Thailand and visit Cambodia. After this adventure I started
looking for jobs in Europe where I could further develop my sales skills.
I found Oracle and I
don’t regret this decision which I made. I am currently working in Prague in an
international Hardware team and I know that is not the end of my adventures. At
this moment, I am working in a team of 12 members. Ten of them are based in
Prague and 2 others are based in Russia. We come from different countries such
as: Czech Republic, Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Slovakia and Kazakhstan. I am
working on the Polish market, cooperating with our Hardware customers and
partners. What do I enjoy the most about my job? I enjoy every challenge that I
face in my daily activities as there are always new experiences for me and new
things that I learn. As part of Oracle, I gain international exposure and therefore
more career opportunities to explore. I have planned my next step for the
career path I dream of and I am currently working on it.
