As a new UX grad, you are eager to apply all the learnings and methodologies immediately to your first job. But what happens when you join a multinational corporation? What are the challenges of real-life projects?
Join three allWomen graduates who share their experience adapting to the ways of working in a well-established E-commerce team at Ocado Technology - a company on a mission to transform online grocery retail and enable some of the world’s most forward-thinking retailers to deliver grocery online profitably, scalably and sustainably.
They’ll share the experiences and challenges of day-to-day work, with real examples. From internal collaboration, obtaining stakeholder buy-in to defining project scope and implementing roadmaps.
This presentation, organized with Ocado Technology, will be followed by a networking event on our cosy groundfloor terrace with snacks and drinks on the house!
