Discovering Kognitiv was like finding a hidden treasure, initiated by an intriguing job opportunity on LinkedIn and reinforced by positive reviews from current employees. The seamless communication, innovative interview scheduling tool (Rooster), and the supportive transition into a dynamic role showcased Kognitiv's commitment to transparency, efficiency, and fostering a diverse and empowering work culture.

I stumbled upon Kognitiv like finding a hidden treasure. It all started when one of our talent partners reached out to me on LinkedIn with an intriguing job opportunity. I had my doubts, but after hearing glowing reviews from the current employees, I knew I had to explore this opportunity further.

As my application progressed, I was impressed by their quick and efficient communication and processes. From the initial message on LinkedIn to the subsequent interactions, everything flowed seamlessly. It was evident that they valued clear and prompt communication, which made the entire process smooth and reassuring.

One thing that particularly stood out to me during the interview process was their game-changing interview scheduling system, Rooster. The way it made scheduling effortless for both me and the interviewers was remarkable. It was my first experience with such a tool, and I was struck by its simplicity, effectiveness, and transparency. This thoughtful approach to accommodating candidates' needs set the stage for what was to come.

Transitioning from a role focused mainly on implementations at partner firms to a post-production support role at Kognitiv was a significant change for me. However, my manager and the team went above and beyond to ease my transition, providing support and guidance at every step in my journey. As I was settling into the role, I also realized that, at Kognitiv, I wasn't confined to one narrow niche. Instead, I was encouraged to explore different areas, stretch my skills, and try new things. The diversity of projects available at Kognitiv presented me with fresh challenges and learning opportunities. From troubleshooting technical issues to implementing innovative solutions, no two days were the same.

At the heart of this journey were the support initiatives of Kognitiv—shadowing, partnering, and office hours. These weren’t just fancy programs—they were practical tools that helped me navigate the twists and turns of my role. It has been through these initiatives that Kognitiv has facilitated a smooth transition for all employees, regardless of where they were in their Workday journey. These support initiatives proved to be invaluable assets for me. They helped me learn the ropes, tackle challenges head-on, and ensured that I set myself up for success.

Let me share a sneak peek of how these initiatives at Kognitiv truly made a difference for me.

Shadowing allowed me to observe and learn from experienced colleagues as they navigated various tasks and challenges. By shadowing them, I gained valuable insights into the best practices, problem-solving techniques, and the intricacies of our workflows.

Partnering with experienced colleagues was equally transformative. One of the most impactful aspects of partnering was the assurance that came with it. Whenever I found myself working on something entirely new, someone experienced in that area would be there to guide me. This not only provided confidence but also ensured that I could deliver high-quality work, even in unfamiliar territory.

Office hours provided a platform for continuous learning and knowledge-sharing. Led by experts in their respective fields, these sessions were like mini masterclasses in everything from problem-solving to industry trends. It was a chance to learn from the best and connect with colleagues who shared my passion for growth and development.

These initiatives made it clear from the start that Kognitiv was more than just a workplace—it was a supportive community where everyone was invested in each other's success.

Reflecting on my journey thus far, I am grateful for the opportunities, support, and friendships that I have found at Kognitiv. Each day brings new learning experiences, and I am excited to continue growing and contributing to this remarkable community.
