A True Story
about
Team photos
Once upon a time.........I was submitting a resume for my husband to an HR firm because he wanted a new engineering role rather than
slogging in his current 80 hour week.
It was no problem that their website was in German and we are only learning
German…….It had been a link-through experience from an job aggregator site……..
”mmmm nice visuals” I thought..
´Twas a super fresh web site with the most applicant
friendly submittal method I had ever come across.
It was also fast, simple and worked first
time………”mmmm smart as well as efficiently Swiss” …I
was happy…..
But there was more……a sweet treat…..a bonus
in-depth Self Discovery questionnaire to appreciate
one´s own traits…….”mmmmm how thoughtful!”
I was impressed.
Knowing that there can be many managers in an HR firm I wondered, “Who is this man that
will phone my husband? What does he look like? Who works there?” And so I clicked on
“Unser Team”.
Sometimes you say WOW….. “What a great team photo”
……then I saw that there were 13 team photos,
I told my PC screen “ WOW Team is important to them …….
I want to work there!”
The funny ending is that I Google translated the phrase under each photo……..
“Teamwork wird bei uns gross geschrieben!”.
Laughing, I discovered…. “Teamwork is important to us! “….
Yes, I definitely want to be part of that team.
And so I just had to share this with someone……
“Team photos are meaningful”
