1️⃣ What is your job? Can you maybe tell what kind of things you have to do?


As an academic I used to conduct legal research in the field of commercial law. Currently, I have been working 10+ years in practice at a large law firm. Most of our work has a cross-border element. Large matters include reorganizations, finance transactions, corporate rescue and capital markets.


2️⃣ What do you like about your job? And are there things that you dont like?


Most matters are challenging from both a commercial and legal perspective. The dynamics of practice are sometimes difficult to reconcile with family life. Agile working possibilities (i.e. working remotely out of the office) provide some breathing space.


3️⃣ What kind of people do you have as colleagues and clients? Are they nice or super serious? And do you see them or are they only online and in other countries?


There is a healthy mix of senior experts and eager young talented people who are my direct colleagues. Most of our clients are situated elsewhere on this globe.


4️⃣ What do you have to study for your job? And what kind of tips do you have if another person wants to do the same job?


A law degree is required to work at a law firm (at least on this side of the Channel). This is different in the UK where colleagues may have a very different academic background. Training as a lawyer will to a significant extent take place upon admission at the bar or relevant local authority. Suggestions to those who aspire to become a lawyer in the field of international finance and commerce include being proficient in English, training sharp analytical skills and understanding commercial drivers in addition to technical legal wizardry.


5️⃣ Will you do another job in the future if you can decide that?


I aim to replace Zakk Wylde as lead guitarist of Pantera for the next European tour. An alternative job may be to become a dentist for African wildlife.


6️⃣ If other people have questions about your job, can they ask it below?


Fire at will.

By curiosity, is Remus part of your team? πŸ˜ƒ

Can i ask do you have a job or dream job @Sabri_KC? And can you maybe tell more about that? Or do you maybe have a job beside the studies? πŸ™‚

Thank you very much!!!! πŸ™πŸ™ I added it on the list in the first post of this forum!!! πŸ™‚


@Etienne i also remember one time i saw a forum administrator!! And maybe there are others who helped you? πŸ™‚

Due to dissabilities (in dutch Arbeidsongeschiktheid) im seeking adapted 'Dagbesteding'

Im a secret agent πŸ•΅οΈ

Hello everybody!! πŸ™‹β€β™€οΈ

Hello miss yue, nice forum πŸ‘πŸ»βœ¨

1️⃣ What is your job? Can you maybe tell what kind of things you have to do?

I'm an Artist, i can make design or illustration to every kind of visual communication. but specifically, i also can be called as illustrator, graphic designer, interior designer etc (depending on project i take)

but, since i can do lot, well, i'm an artist (no, i'm not kidding, i'm serious)

2️⃣ What do you like about your job? And are there things that you dont like?

I love my job because this comes from my hobby of drawing.

Many people think I'm lucky because I can do what I love, & i can create the work in instant. but the reality is that in the process is never easy.

Yes people, please value the process more than the end result.

because the process cannot lie, while if you only focus on the end result, you wouldn't know if the result is really their work or manipulation (other people's work that is claimed)

3️⃣ What kind of people do you have as colleagues and clients? Are they nice or super serious? And do you see them or are they only online and in other countries?

It depends, but most people are easy going and really trust my abilities. some of them are people I see in real life, and some of them are foreigners.

4️⃣ What do you have to study for your job? And what kind of tips do you have if another person wants to do the same job?

i major a visual communication & design.

and my tips, if you like art, try to find out specifically what you want to study. if you prefer drawing humans & love to make comic you can take visual communication & design.

if you like painting/making sculpture, take fine arts

If you like arranging space/making backgrounds, you can take interior design.

If you like creating new items, such as example, you see chair in public that ineffective for elders then you have in mind about the design/material that might be comfortable for the elderly, you can take up product design.

If you like to create glasses, jars, well anything made of clay, you can take up craft art.

If you like to make clothes or setting fashion trends, you can take fashion design/fashion mode.

i mean, Art is very broad, so it's a bit tricky to choose specifications. Don't let yourself feel like you've taken the wrong major in the middle of the road and end up just wasting time. if you have doubts you can ask me.

5️⃣ Will you do another job in the future if you can decide that?

sure, i'm thinking of having a side business to make more money and turn it around, maybe in culinary? (since i can cook & my bf are coffee master in the coffee world)

idk let's see, because the point is I will not only rely on my main job but also side jobs and it would be even better if I could create my own jobs hhhhhhhh oh i love money.

6️⃣ If other people have questions about your job, can they ask it below?

sure, just ask in here or privately, feel free! (but if I'm slow to respond or not open PPG, I apologize)

Due to dissabilities (in dutch Arbeidsongeschiktheid) im seeking adapted 'Dagbesteding'

What kind of day activities do you like to do @Ilexforest?


Im a secret agent πŸ•΅οΈ

So you are a spy or Italian ninja!!!! πŸ₯·


And i like a lot what you wrote @mayuuram!!! I read everything with my breakfast! πŸ˜› But it is super clear!! Do you have nice tips for the visual art of PPG? πŸ™‚


@elizabethtay836: do you still want to become a psychiatrist? i can remember that from your interview!! πŸ˜ƒ and i think @-Kiki- too right so you want to get the same job!! πŸ†πŸ†


Edited by Yue_ .

I am ritired

I worked in the family business from 1977 at 2021....

Doors and windows for private and banks

Yes very hard

@Roseeeee do you still want to be a movie actress? and what kind of acting study would you like the most and where (for example New York or Hollywood)? and what kind of movies or series would you like to be in?


and @alegzander i know that @diogenes_cask also works at a university as professor and @Esma-Nur if i can remember that @Savi2024 is also a lawyer! and for myself i am curious if there is anybody who works in the field of medicine or at a hospital?


and @-Kiki- what kind of job would you like in the future and do you already have a study that you like at a university? maybe in Amsterdam!! πŸ˜ƒ


Yes i still want to but i am also interested in working for the FBI. I’d like to be in long tv shows,movies and tv shows with the genre of breaking bad,shameless or euphoria. But everything is fine

Aluminum was light and easy to make..... Doors elettronics for banks very difficult

Pass the elettrical cables in the door

@mayuuram How hard was it to get your job?

whether it is difficult or not depends on the connections/privileges that we have, it would be kinda hard if we only depend on our skills but we don't have any connections + we are introverts. and vice versa. that's why in my country, the visual communication and design majors are included in the social realm. because in practice we also need to socialize/build connections to get exposure & clients. but I think we can get through everything as long as we have the will.

Why did you chose especially this part of the job and not something else?

if asked why, i would dare to say because i follow my heart. and i'm sure that's where i belong. destiny is strange, right?

What would you have done if there would be no job like this?

I can say that I am quite a flexible person, if in the end everyone no longer appreciates art, or maybe art is banned, I will look for another job with a high salary, while I try to make other people start appreciating art again.

because from what I've learned, artists are one of agents of change.

And i like a lot what you wrote @mayuuram!!! I read everything with my breakfast! πŸ˜› But it is super clear!! Do you have nice tips for the visual art of PPG? πŸ™‚

Thankyou, Yue for always reads everything i writeπŸ™‚ hmmm, can you be specific to what kind of tips you want/need?

What would you recommend people who want to do something similar liek your job @Etienne, sir?

To just dive in and try experimenting stuff, making small projects, following tutorials to learn how to do stuff. And probably be interested in AI and how to best use it, as it will shape the near future

What jund of difference and how were the changes? Can i give/show us examples? What is more conecentrstet in university math?

At school I had only a few lessons of math a week, and at university I had math lessons and a lot of new material every day.

@alegzander Which other subjects can you teach? Just math?

I also teach some programming.

Thank you everybody for writing in this forum. πŸ™πŸ™πŸ˜‡πŸ˜‡πŸ˜‡ I really like it because you can learn A LOTTT about your friends and other people here in a nice way. It is like the interviews but mini interviews about one thing: the jobs that you have or maybe like!!!! πŸ˜› I know that there are a LOTTT of questions in the first post of this forum but i am super thankful that people write and share. πŸ₯°πŸ₯°


My lunch break is almost over so i cant write a lot now!! πŸ™„πŸ˜¬ But i have one question for @Idkbro about the FBI: is that possible? Because if you want to work for the FBI i think you maybe have to be American? Or do you mean the Swedish or Italian FBI? If you have to be American than it is still possible but you have to become American first and you have to wait longer. But if you go for acting to maybe New York or Hollywood you can also become American if you live there longer.


And @Paolo63 it is very nice what you wrote. I did not even know there are wires in doors!!!! i thought a door of a bank it would be like A LOTTTT of iron and the locks are maybe with wires but the doors only have holes for the locks. πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸšͺπŸ—οΈ


And @alegzander: if @Etienne needs help with programming maybe he can hire you!! πŸ˜› Thank you for writing too!!! And @mayuuram i have no idea yet about the visual art for PPG what can be made even better. But maybe @Etienne if you need help you can ask @mayuuram because she is the expert artist of PPG! So if you need visual art she can maybe help with that. πŸ™‚


I really hope that this forum helps like the interviews to know people better. And anybody who wants can write (even if you dont write often on the forum). It is a nice way to understand more about you and what you do for your job. Thank you very much!!!!!! ❀️❀️❀️

@Pennarossa2024 i always think of totally spies then somehow LOL

1️⃣ What is your job? Can you maybe tell what kind of things you have to do?

I'm working at warehouse of personal safety equipment (No, no bulletproof vests or guns or claws gloves, the other category, more for civilians) . I prepare orders for clients, sometimes little one, sometimes huge one, on pallets. I also take deliveries of our products. Im also responsible for warehouse organisation and effectiveness.

2️⃣ What do you like about your job? And are there things that you dont like?

This job is to have money for studies and to live somehow. This is job without any stress, without shifts, without overtime working. It is perfect to organize life and routines around it, and focus on other things. At least in my company it looks like that. I know few warehouses, and it's different everywhere.

What I don't like, is of course, it's not job for rest of my life, but it's nowhere said that every job have to. But it is great as fundament to working on further.

It's not work, where You could spread your wings and it's mostly boring.

3️⃣ What kind of people do you have as colleagues and clients? Are they nice or super serious? And do you see them or are they only online and in other countries?

I have great people here. The type of people I will regret I must leave behind in few years. Good one, nice, funny, and we are few, so it's cameral and like in family. We have very elastic time, so it's not problem if someone have to leave early or come later to work. I also learned few things from my team, and its very precious.

4️⃣ What do you have to study for your job? And what kind of tips do you have if another person wants to do the same job?

It's job, where the only things You should do is being solid, organized somehow, and wanting to work. Tips? Just work diligently. There are no challenges and not much opportunities to being promote, so use this kind of job as money and stability background to grow beyond that job to find better proffesion You desire.

Of course, it is also not always as simple. It depends.

5️⃣ Will you do another job in the future if you can decide that?

I already decided. But it is in progress.

6️⃣ If other people have questions about your job, can they ask

Of course.
