Greatest achievements

One of my greatest achievements was integrating what3words into our application for the ControlWorks project. This integration enabled precise real-time location sharing during incidents, enhancing accessibility and response times. Notably, what3words has been utilized by UK emergency services to accurately pinpoint locations in challenging situations.

The best advice that I can give you is to be true to your values during the interview. Like everywhere, a company is above all made up of people so be yourself and think about the people you are meeting and potentially working with as well as the job itself. If you are not hired after an interview, it means that this role is may not have been the right one, but the right one will come along. Keep believing in you and your capabilities and never give up!
