Why did you decide to work at [companyname]?: 
I used to work at an internet marketing agency where we followed clients' decisions, having little chance to listen to end-user’s voices. To work at Kijiji, I can get involved in the decision making and formulate solutions to help users have better livelihoods
Why do you like working at [companyname]?: 
Our website has an impact on end-users. We help people to get a job, get a house, get a puppy or get a nanny, etc.
What cool projects have you worked on at [companyname]?: 
Kijiji Taiwan is famous for its "goods swap", so we invited Kyle Macdonald , the guy who traded a house with a red paper clip, to Taiwan to promote goods swap. The press was so crazy about this PR event, and we successfully made the Kijiji brand name exposed on every TV station's prime time news, newspapers, magazines and radio shows!
What are your goals at [companyname] - what are you working to achieve?:

To meet users face to face at "voices", listen to their successful stories and how Kijiji inspires them to do internet marketing

Compared to other companies, our office desk is 1.5 times larger! I have plenty of room to demo my collections
