Career Shapers

Our office is located in the LIG Flats at MU-38/C. It’s a residential area, so it’s got a very different feel than being in a commercial hub. Career Shapers is basically a small team working out of this flat. We’ve turned the main rooms into our working areas, with desks and chairs scattered around. It’s a bit tight when we have visitors, but it makes for a friendly atmosphere. You can hear the neighbors and the kids playing outside sometimes, which reminds us that we are part of a real community. We don't have a big HR department or any of those corporate things. It’s just us making decisions and handling the day-to-day work ourselves. We usually start the day with a bit of cleaning up and making sure we have enough water for the afternoon. The stairs can be a bit steep, but we are used to them by now. Most of our work involves talking to people and helping them figure things out, so the phone is our most important tool. We don't have a dress code or anything like that; we just wear what is comfortable and get to work. It’s a simple life here in the flats, and we appreciate the lack of pretense. We just do our best to stay organized and keep moving forward. Some days are long, but we enjoy the work we do in this small, lived-in space.
