Read moreTHG gave me the opportunity to work in an environment of highly skilled engineers who are very open to sharing their knowledge. I have also been given the chance to work in different tech teams, by which I have been able to gain a better overall understanding of how websites core services are interlinked.
Being an incredibly fast growing multi-website online retailer, I always considered THG would be the best place to keep me engaged without having any boring days at work.
Being a graduate at THG is a wonderful experience. The atmosphere at the offices is relaxed and productive. Everyone is highly skilled, supportive and helpful; thus, you will not find yourself stuck on the same problem for too long as there is always someone, who is willing to aid you. Due to its innovative and prone to change nature, THG creates an environment where taking risks and trying out new ideas is encouraged, making it easier to learn about the current trends in the industry and try out the newest tools available.
Starting my career at THG was one of the best decisions I could have made. The company is fast paced, agile and lateral thinking. It welcomes new ideas from everyone and does not like tying its employees to their initial positions. This allows graduates quickly be a part of different projects around the business, propose their own initiatives and easily move job roles within the company. Having always enjoyed challenging myself and getting involved in different extra-curricular activities, I was looking to join a company that would be prone to change and risk-tolerant. In the last 10 months, I have worked on 4 projects (2 of them being initiated by me) around the company involving communications with both commercial and technical sides of the business. This allowed me to learn a lot more about the wider business and how my day-to-day tasks impact other teams. I started at THG as a customer scientist – data analyst. Even though I liked what I was doing, I’ve always been more interested in data science. Prior to joining the company, I lacked some of the required skills for the data scientist role; hence, it was out of reach at the beginning. With the aid of customer science and data science teams I had improved my programming skills and widened my knowledge of the data science field. As a result, within the first 5 months, I was given the opportunity to permanently join the data science team.
The fast paced nature of the role allows me to get exposure to many different technologies, good coding practices and large systems. I was given a lot of responsibility from the start, and had the opportunity to release live code within the first few weeks of working at THG.
Very intense but this business is quite different from previous internships, you get to work on real projects here, and feeling like your work actually matters makes you want to put in a lot more effort. You get a real sense of accomplishment when you see your code being used by thousands of users everyday.
