This is a very diverse group. I love that we are from very different backgrounds, locations and time zones, but are still able to function perfectly as a team.

How long have you worked at Examity?
Since November of 2019.
What work do you do here, and why do you find it gratifying?
I work as an architect for PBS and ISS software scrum teams. I find my work gratifying for several reasons. First of all, it is very engaging. There are plenty of opportunities to solve new and interesting problems every sprint. Secondly, I can regularly work on projects which directly enhance our test-taker’s proctoring experience. And of course, working with my talented teammates is very rewarding.
Why do you love working with your colleagues?
This is a very diverse group. I love that we are from very different backgrounds, locations and time zones, but are still able to function perfectly as a team. There are plenty of meaningful collaborations and communications, plus, I learn new things from my colleagues every day.
What was the biggest unexpected challenge you faced when first starting with Examity?
I did not encounter any unexpected challenges when I first started with Examity: the onboarding process was great, and I felt very welcomed. Hurdles came about three months later, when COVID first hit. However, we ultimately adapted to the new remote working style very smoothly and have produced great work.
What advice do you have for prospective Examity employees?
Examity is a very flexible and inclusive place to work. Don’t be afraid to ask for anything you need to make your work life better. We are always ready to help.
