Translated from 日本語 • View original I'm Samejima, who is currently a security engineer in the cloud field at Colorkrew. It's been 3 months since I joined Colorkrew. This time, I will look back on the three months of continuous learning I spent and introduce what kind of company Colorkrew is!
How I Changed Jobs
At an IT company where I joined as a new graduate, I was involved in the operation and maintenance of large general-purpose aircraft. I was originally interested in cloud systems and started my career as an infrastructure engineer, and my previous job also focused on the cloud field, so I wanted to be involved in cloud work, but I didn't have many opportunities. As my peers steadily thought about their careers and started changing jobs, I started job hunting out of impatience that if I didn't move like this, I wouldn't be able to build my ideal career as an engineer.
Why Join Colorkrew?
I first learned about Colorkrew when I received an offer message from Mr. Koshiba, a human resources officer at Open Work, as a cloud engineer. (I'm ashamed to say that I really didn't even know the name until then) When I looked at the introduction page of Colorkrew out of curiosity, I saw these words from the representative, Nakamura.
Meaningfulness means contributing to the world through work. Fun means to achieve work while collaborating with independent colleagues in a difficult business environment. That's the idea that Team Colorkrew aims for.
Until now, I had never been able to face my work while genuinely enjoying it, and I thought it was natural to face my work while making a living in order to continue to do so. For me, Colorkrew, whose team has consistently had this way of thinking, really looks attractive, and I want to work for this company at all costs! I started to think.
Colorkrew's first attempt "Entry Conditions"
Of course, I **want to work for this company no matter what! ** Society is a society where you can't join a company just by thinking about it. Fortunately or unfortunately, the biggest barrier for me in the process of joining Colorkrew was the suggestion of the CEO, Nakamura, who wrote the aforementioned message as the reason for joining the company. . . At Nakamura's suggestion, I was offered the condition of passing AZ-104 by the due date as a condition for joining the company. Although I had some knowledge as an infrastructure engineer at the time, as an engineer who had hardly touched cloud systems, I had no choice but to do it even though I felt impatient that this was quite bad **! I'll definitely take it! ** I remember deciding to make up my mind. I work at Colorkrew, so the results are obvious, but I managed to get it and it has reached the present (laughs) In parallel with my previous job, I think it was quite tough at the time, when I think back to the period when I found time to study after returning home or during my lunch break. However, while currently working as a cloud engineer, I have the opportunity to make use of what I learned at the time of acquisition. Now that I think about it, I think that the representative, Nakamura, created a foothold for me to enjoy my work after joining the company. No, I believe so, Keishi-san! (Laughter)
About Work Styles
It's been a little over three months since I started working at Colorkrew. At first, I was worried about whether I would be able to learn the work and whether I would be able to communicate smoothly with other employees. However, I am living a smooth and smooth Colorkrer life to the point where I am sorry for my anxiety! ! ** If you are interested in Colorkrew and are not very confident in your English skills, if you are looking at this page, I will answer clearly. Don't worry about not being able to speak English when communicating with overseas members! ** Regardless of the overseas members, everyone spoke to me in a really friendly manner, so I didn't have to worry about not getting used to it. Now, my desire to talk to more overseas members has motivated me to improve my English skills.
1point advice for those who are worried about job hunting
Finally, I would like to give my own important advice to the first big problem that those who are thinking about changing jobs will be worried about, "When should I start job hunting" ? If you're worried, it's better to be prepared and move For some reason, there is a tendency in the world to think about changing jobs after working for three years, but I think the time is right when you are prepared to move after worrying about whether it is okay to stay like this! (I thought while writing the article, but the fundamental reason for this trend may be that there are many people who have worked for exactly three years and think this way.) It takes a lot of courage to take a step forward in everything, but I think that if you make your own decision and act with your own responsibility, you will have little regret no matter how the result is. When you decide to change jobs, if you want to work with your colleagues and do a job that you find enjoyable, please consider becoming a member of Colorkrew on your next challenge!
