Sofija Bem
-Marketing Manager (Serbia)
Having a friend working in QH Serbia, I had an insight on what a great working environment QH has. It took me seconds to decide to apply for the job when I saw the opening, and it took me even less to decide that this is the place I would like to work at and grow as a professional. Luckily, they liked me too, so the rest is history.

How did the idea for Quality House Serbia come to life?
Having a friend working in QH Serbia, I had an insight into what a great working environment QH has. It took me seconds to decide to apply for the job when I saw the opening, and it took me even less to decide that this is the place I would like to work at and grow as a professional. Luckily, they liked me too, so the rest is history.
When you were a child, what did you dream you'd become?
Animals, especially dogs have been my passion for as long as I can remember, so the dream was, of course, to be a veterinarian. The dream did not come true, but the passion still remains.
How can you describe the Quality House Team in a single word?
Diversity.
For you Quality House is…?
A place where you are free to explore different paths of your professional growth, with all the support and understanding you need, especially in the beginning of you career...but most importantly, quite a dynamic place to be.. ;)
Which is the thing you appreciate the most in your colleagues?
It is a very difficult task to single out one thing, but if I had to choose, it would definitely be tolerance. I find it the most important characteristic a person can have in each aspect of life. I will take this opportunity to say that they are also very supportive, always ready to help out and make a stressful day fly by.

Sofija Bem as a Professional
What do you think are the three main qualities that every professional should have?
Responsibility, determination, and understanding.
Why did you choose this career?
I did not exactly choose it, I can honestly say that it came naturally and that working with people who were able to recognize that in me led me to be where I am today.
What has been the greatest challenge you have faced in your career to date?
Working with different types of people and learning how to approach each of them in the best way possible.
If you could turn back time would you make the same choice of career as you did before?
I think every person has some things they would change about the choices they made in the past, but also all of those choices are what made us who we are today.. so the answer would be no. :)
Where do you see yourself in 10 years' time?
I see myself as a professional with a great experience which will give me more confidence in my work.
