My first day at work

Meu primeiro dia de trabalho

(English version below)

Meu primeiro dia de trabalho foi bem interessante. Membros da AIESEC me acompanharam da minha casa ateh o escritorio, explicando como funciona o onibus e o metro em Taipei, e me apresentaram a empresa!

O predio onde fica meu escritorio fica conectado diretamente com uma estacao do metro (como se fosse o Shopping Santa Cruz e a estacao do metro, para quem conhece Sao Paulo). Super bem localizado, em uma das principais avenidas de Taipei e com uma academia no 3o andar! Rsrsrs Ha uma vista bem bonita da janela do 17 andar do escritorio!

Aqui vai uma foto das redondezas... O predio mais alto do mundo - Taipei 101, com mais de 500 metros de altura - fica relativamente perto.

Meu chefe (Homing Huan, ex CEO da Hewlett Packard – HP) me apresentou a empresa e logo reuniu os consultores e gerentes de projeto para me fazerem um update sobre os clientes e projetos atuais. Dois dos consultores que vou trabalhar sao alumni da AIESEC! Uma foi MCP e o outro MCVP da AIESEC Taiwan! Eles estao responsaveis por acompanhar minha adaptacao na empresa!

Ha muita coisa ainda para contar sobre meu ambiente de trabalho e experiencias por aqui.. Aguardem!

My first day at work

My first day at work was pretty interesting. Members of AIESEC TPLC (Emily and Evangela, if I am not mistaken) took me from my house to the office, explaining to me how public transportation works and introduced me to the company!

The building where I work is connected to a metro station, what makes it very convenient! In a very nice neighborhood – on one of the biggest avenues in Taipei – the office provides a beautiful view of the city from the windows in the 17th floor where it is placed.

Take a look at the picture above of the surrounding area of the office. The tallest building in the worl - Taipei 101, more than 500 meters high - is relatively near.

My boss (Homing Huan, PhD, former CEO of Hewlett Packard – HP and member of AIESEC in Taiwan Board of Advisors) is a great person and he introduced me to the company and consultants in this morning, drinking some green tea. I was updated about the main projects and initiatives in the company, what was also very important.

Another very nice thing is that two of the consultants I work with are AIESEC alumni! Sandy, former MCP and James, former MCVP both of AIESEC in Taiwan. They are great people and are responsible for my adaptation process, since they know pretty well the organization I come from! Hahaha…
Well, there is a lot to say about my working environment and soon you will get to know the other consultants I work with and how is the routine in the office!

Wait for next posts! ;)
