Work at Oracle as a Fresh Student by Ang Sun
- by Nadiya
The
past months have flown by since I started working at Oracle; but at the same
time it feels like I’ve been here forever. I came to Beijing to find a job
after I graduated from The University of Southampton with a MSc in Software
Engineering. I got an offer the next day after I had an interview with my
manager.
This new style of working
life hasn’t been a problem with me. The atmosphere here is fantastic and
everyone is so friendly and easy to talk to. I am the first member in our AIE
China Team. We do appreciate those colleagues from Core I/O team who helped us
a lot to familiarize ourselves with the new environment. After hire orientation
training I got to know many new people from various teams including Middleware,
People Soft and Solaris. Also Oracle provides weekly system online training as
additional training for those people who need it.
The best thing about
working at Oracle is that there is a balance between work and rest. It’s good
to have a really nice park and green space near the Oracle buildings. Most of
us like to walk around the riverside after lunch before we get back to work. I
like to grab a cup of latte before discussing issues and the schedule of our
projects in a weekly conference call with my US colleagues. It has been great
experience; I am working alongside talented colleagues from different countries
and nationalities.
