What were you doing before joining ZenGroup?<\/h2><\/div>

I was leading an online auction house specializing in second hand luxury goods (or pre-loved as the insiders say). The job was quite comprehensive with me doing all marketing efforts, supporting auction preparation, item control and being live on camera calling bids and explaining goods 3 times a week.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Why did you decide to apply to ZenGroup?<\/h2><\/div>

I had reached a stand-still in learning potential in my previous company. In order to evolve professionally, I needed a company where I could utilize my skills in marketing and experience design. I saw an opportunity in ZenGroup to learn from others, and gain experience I couldn\u2019t get elsewhere.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

How would you describe the workplace environment at ZenGroup?<\/h2><\/div>

It\u2019s a very welcoming yet professional environment. You can be yourself and feel comfortable knowing people will respect you as you are. There are people of many cultures and backgrounds, so keep your mind open to new input and you\u2019ll learn things no single uni degree could provide you.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Which part of your personality do you think fits well with ZenGroup?<\/h2><\/div>

Haha, I don\u2019t want to sound like a narcissist, but I have many qualities I’m proud of and fit well with ZenGroup. But If I had to pick one, It\u2019d be my ability to look at a challenge in unusual ways. My input regularly inspires new ways of doing things, and with a team that can play off me, we have created a wonderful dynamic.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

What is the most enjoyable part of working at ZenGroup?<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

I\u2019d say; looking forward to going to work every day. I\u2019m passionate about our projects because we\u2019re given agency, and it makes me excited to achieve our goals day by day.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Would you recommend working at ZenGroup to your friends? Why?<\/h2><\/div>

Oh, for sure, in fact I already have. ZenGroup is great at supercharging your talents in the area you\u2019re best at, so long as it’s a relevant skill and you\u2019re open about what you want to achieve. It\u2019s also great to work in an environment that really respects its employees.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Can you describe your work, including your team and colleagues?<\/h2><\/div>

I\u2019m part of ZenPop, the subscription box service powered by ZenGroup. On the regular, my tasks include running our social media channels, communicating with partners, writing copy and much more, but lately we\u2019ve been going through some changes, and I\u2019ve really gotten to let my market research skills shine with creating and analyzing survey results, compiling data, holding qualitative interviews and making a marketing strategy. It\u2019s super fun!<\/p>\n

My colleagues are a varied group of 5 all with unique abilities integral to ZenPop. What I like best about working with them is how they trust each other’s expertise and build off each other. Thanks to the efforts we made in 2023, I\u2019m confident 2024 will be our year!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Do you have any memorable experiences where your colleagues supported or cooperated with you?<\/h2><\/div>

Hmm, I\u2019ve got plenty, we cooperate daily, but to highlight a more unique experience, I was recognized for my B2B experience and consulted about this in another department’s project, allowing me to work with members I rarely get to interact with, except for the breaks. I like this because it shows the company\u2019s flexible side and how it respects my abilities despite titles and time in the company.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

When you think of ZenGroup, what word comes to mind?<\/h2><\/div>

\u201cWe Are ZenGroup!\u201d Ehehe, I know it\u2019s not a word, but it\u2019s such an iconic phrase. It was part of a recruiting video around when I joined the company and has lived rent free in my head ever since.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

What do you think is the appeal of ZenGroup?<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Can I say \u201call of the above\u201d? No? Oh well, in short; ZenGroup is an oasis for those with ambition to grow and improve their abilities in a variety of fields. Come as you are and let’s become better together in a fun, sustainable way!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Are there any unique benefits, growth opportunities, or work-life balance initiatives at ZenGroup that you find attractive?<\/h2><\/div>

I like the cross department collaborations and the semi-flex solutions for breaks and work hours. I also enjoy the low bar for suggesting ideas and how approachable management is.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":3698,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3635","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interview-new"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/magnus-profile-1.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3635"}],"version-history":[{"count":30,"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3635\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12333,"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3635\/revisions\/12333"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/careers.zen.group\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
