Interview with Wu (Vicky) Yuechen, Sondrel Recruiter
1. How many years have you been with the company, and what has kept you here for so long?
I have been with Sondrel for over eight years now. At Sondrel, I can not only have professional development but also get the right work & life balance. Over the past years, I’ve had the opportunity to take on new challenges, grow my skills, and continuously push my career forward.
2. What aspect of working here have you enjoyed the most throughout your time with us?
One of the aspects I’ve enjoyed the most is the opportunity to work with such a diverse and talented team. I’ve been recruiting for the global team, including different countries and departments, and we have different cultures, different accents and even in different time zones. But this does not affect how collaborative and supportive our workplace is. We don’t just focus on our own goals — we always do them together, sharing knowledge, learning from each other and helping each other, and constantly pushing each other to improve. It's hard to imagine that as an HR, I would gain such a wealth of knowledge in semiconductor and finance, thanks to the guidance of my team members.
3. In what ways has the company supported your personal and professional growth over the years?
Sondrel has lots of training opportunities, mentorship guidance, mature and complete promotion systems, and also provides autonomy for an employee's personal development. I am always encouraged to further study and develop personal interests. So that's why I've been able to not only expand my skills in the recruitment and HR fields but also in other fields, like finance. My first position at Sondrel was HR and Admin, then I had an opportunity to be promoted as the China Recruiter, and then I joined the global Recruitment team. From this year, I also support the Finance team -- such varied experience has really enriched my career.
4. What advice would you give to someone considering joining our team?
Sondrel is a place where you are encouraged to continuously improve and grow, so if you’re looking for a place to challenge yourself and build a meaningful career, this is a good choice. Look forward to working with you！
