Office Christmas parties are underway. And what's better than to celebrate with a team that makes you feel a home away from home. If you’re not feeling that fuzzy feeling of home at your current job, we are here to help. Let's help you find your “work home”.
It’s that jingle belly time of year again with Christmas almost upon us. ’Tis the season’ synonymous with spending time with family and loved ones and being surrounded by that warm fuzzy feeling of home. As many businesses wrap up, companies often treat their staff to an Office Christmas aka year end. Either a Soiree with glitz and glam. Or an intimate get-together to enjoy a braai or a relaxing lounge by the pool.
Spending most of our lives at work, you eventually bond with your colleagues and become a “work family”.
These staff parties can be equated to your “work Christmas” and your colleagues your “work family”. Some people even jokingly refer to their work bestie as a “work husband or work wife”. These terms have come about because we spend the majority of our lives at our jobs. You develop closeknit relationships because that’s the natural course of human nature when you spend loads of time with someone. And you share. You connect. And eventually you become as thick as thieves and bond like family.
Your job becomes your home away from home.
The company and team you join become your home away from home. Even when work is at your actual house. Through the magic of the internet via the myriad of MS Teams, Zooms, Google Chats, and countless emails, you are interwoven as a team. The same as you do over family WhatsApp groups. Because let’s face it, most of us hardly see members of our non-work family throughout the year. Aside from the odd birthday, funeral, or random visit, you also rely on voice notes or DMs. Or even the rare phone call to check in (yes serial texters, you’re still able to make a call and have an actual phone convo).
Our Recruitment Consultants want to gift to you a fighting chance. An opportunity to nab your dream job so trust us and let’s help you find your “work home”.
Finding that “work home” for you is a job we here at Datafin quite enjoy. And what can be more rewarding than giving someone not only a new job but hope. And a fighting chance to attain their dream career. That’s exactly what happened to one of our now employed Python Devs. One of our special success stories for 2023. He’d been working for Uber for the past 3 years. After countless no’s from both Recruitment Agencies and companies he was slowly ready to give up. Quit his dream of becoming a Developer. Not only did the Consultant convince her client to chat to him but find him a “work home”. One where he could realise his dream. And like a cherry on a Christmas fruit cake – he even relocated to the city of his dreams. He now calls Cape Town his new home.
The entire Datafin team would like to wish each and every one of our clients and candidates and their loved ones a beautiful festive season. We can only express immense gratitude and thanks for going the distance with us. We hope we can continue our journey together in the new year. Stay safe and enjoy.
