What is your education/work background?

Why did you choose to work for SalesScreen?

Helene: Choosing the right employer is a crucial part of my well-being. I believe SalesScreen is the perfect fit for me and an amazing company to work for in general because of the values we represent–values that are also highly reflected in our office. I was also familiar with SalesScreen (both the software and the company) through my previous job, so when I got the chance to become a part of the SalesScreen team, it was quite the no-brainer!

What are your expectations of working here?

Helene: To be a part of an environment with a “yes, I can” mentality. I expect hard work, but having lots of fun while doing it.

What unique qualities or skills do you bring to the table?

Have you ever worked for a startup? Are you excited about it?

Helene: SalesScreen is the first start-up I have worked for. I must say that I am super excited to work for one–I think it suits my working style very well.

Describe your personality.

Helene: I would describe myself as adaptable, easy-going and positive, with a natural curiosity.
