What does a typical workday look like to you?
I am fairly new to Cegal, so it is difficult to answer, but I imagine that everyday life will consist of varied tasks that I will solve together with good and pleasant colleagues.

Which technologies do you work with?
The plan is that I will work mostly with Azure. For me, starting in this position consisted of a six-week course called Microsoft University and here I took two certificates, they are called AZ-104 Azure Administrator Associate and AZ-305 Azure Solutions Architect Expert.
Cegal is a Microsoft Gold Cloud Partner, read more about it here >
What drives you at work and in your role, what's fun?
Now at the start it will be my curiosity and eagerness to learn that drives me to work! My new colleagues provide a lot of knowledge, experience and humour, which also helps to keep me motivated😊 With a little more time in the office and when I've settled into good routines, I want to achieve good results together with the team and know the feeling of mastery is what drives me at work and in my role.
What is the best thing about working in Cegal?
So far, the best thing about working at Cegal has been the trust they gave me in connection with starting the job! It was an unexpected kick-start to working life to be able to travel for six weeks on a course and take such relevant and sought-after certificates, make new contacts and just generally grow even more as a person. It was fun and educational.
The practical arrangement and trust I received when I was sent to Microsoft University was an incredibly nice and warm welcome. I really felt that Cegal wanted to invest in me and my knowledge😊
Can you tell us a little bit more about Microsoft University?
Microsoft University (MSU) is an educational program that provides training and certifications in Microsoft's services and products, and is a collaboration between Microsoft, Glasspaper and Microsoft's partners and customers. Among these partners and customers is Cegal, and we have bought two study places. The program consists of a six-week intensive course with seven different specializations, and for me who took Azure Cloud Platform, my training consisted mostly of how to build cloud environments in Azure.
At the end of the course, I am left with only good memories and friends I have become very fond of. Our class environment became very safe and good, and we cheered each other on through the six weeks of the course and certifications. Now, when we are spread out among our various employers, we know several people with the same interests as ourselves and who are in the same industry.
Which app do you use the most, and why?
In the last year, I have used TikTok quite a bit. I think it's light entertainment with animal videos, but also tips for travelling, cooking and training.
What is your favorite quote?
The quote below is by Newton and always the first thing that comes to mind when I hear quotes.
If I have looked a bit further than others, I have done so by standing on the shoulders of giants.
