Today we'd like to introduce you to Javier Vásquez, a talented Java backend developer from Tegucigalpa, Honduras who has thrived thanks to his experience with COBRA.
Javier was initially hesitant to join our team, as he had never worked remotely before and wasn't sure how he would adapt to the new environment. He was also a little insecure about his communication skills, but thanks to the preparation and guidance of our dedicated recruiters, this was not an issue. In fact, with their help, Javier was able to overcome his fears and embrace the remote work lifestyle.
We sat down with Javier to ask him about his experience with COBRA and how it has impacted his career. Here's what he had to say:
COBRA Recruiter: Hi Javier, thanks for taking the time to chat with us today. Can you tell us a bit about your background as a Java developer and how you ended up joining the COBRA team?
Javier: Sure! I've been working as a Java developer for about seven years now officialy. I had done some freelancing, then I worked in two software companies in Honduras. I learned a lot there but I was always looking for a more stable and supportive environment. Then I was contacted by a COBRA recruiter. At first, I was a little nervous about working remotely and for a company in the US, but the recruiters at COBRA were so supportive and helped me through the onboarding process. I'm so glad I took the leap and joined the team.
COBRA Recruiter: What have been some of the highlights of your experience with COBRA so far?
Javier: There have been so many! One of the biggest benefits of working with COBRA has been the flexibility it offers. I have a lot of hobbies that I enjoy and I have a dog, so being able to work remotely has allowed me to pursue those while still having a steady income. I've also had the opportunity to work with clients from the US and teams and projects that have a significant impact in the world, which has been a really exciting and enriching experience.
COBRA Recruiter: That's great to hear! Is there anything you'd like to share about your experience working with the COBRA team or any funny anecdotes you'd like to share?
Javier: Well, one funny thing that comes to mind is that I have a pet parrot who loves to join me during conference calls. He always manages to make an appearance and steal the show! But seriously, I've really enjoyed getting to know my fellow COBRA team members. We may be working remotely, but we've built a strong sense of community and support for each other.
COBRA Recruiter: Thank you for sharing your story, Javier. We're so glad to have you as a part of the COBRA team and can't wait to see what the future holds for you.
Javier: Thank you! I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the COBRA team and am excited to see where my career takes me next.
As you can see, Javier is just one example of how remote work and COBRA's support can help talented professionals thrive and reach their full potential. We're proud to be able to offer a flexible and supportive environment for our team members, no matter where they are located.
If you're a Java developer or a professional in any other field and are interested in joining the COBRA team, don't hesitate to get in touch. We'd love to hear from you and see how we can support your career growth and success.
