Hi Vicky, could you say a few words about yourself and how you came to CERN?

In Wales, at the local Coleg Y Cymoedd where I studied a BTEC Diploma in Science, I was a lab technician apprentice. While I was working for the college, the lecturers arranged a student trip to visit CERN, luckily they invited me to join! Of course I knew of CERN before but, after the visit I was completely blown away and left inspired. We were told of the many different roles at CERN and I came to learn that CERN was actually in need of more technicians.

Hi Katarina, tell us a little about yourself and what brought you to CERN?
I’m a Swedish Software Engineer who joined CERN in March 2000. What encouraged me to apply to CERN was the combination of a fit with my technical competencies at the time, the international environment and the geographic location. I also liked the fact that I would be able to practice both English and French, but both languages were not necessary to apply and get a job.

Κάθε φορά ακούω την ίδια ερώτηση “Εμένα; Σιγά μην πάρουν εμένα!”.
Κάθε φορά απαντάω το ίδιο! “Και γιατί όχι;”
Every time I face the same question “Me? Why should they hire me?”.
Every time I give the same response! “Well, why not you?”
