Sometimes you have to take a gamble!
One of the colleagues who came to Oreel as a side entry student is Klaas Jan de Goede. “I am a foreman in the laser department. We have a well-motivated team. The atmosphere is social and we work hard every day to deliver quality.
My original work was a team leader in the print industry. I started in that sector when I was 17 and have made great developments over the years. I have always enjoyed working there. Due to competition from abroad, the financial situation in that sector declined, turnover decreased by the month. I already felt the storm and chose eggs for my money; a new career.
I looked for a job with a good future perspective and saw that there is a stable market for metalworking. After that I actually applied directly to Oreel with the announcement that I did not know exactly what working in the metal meant, but that I was open to everything. For me it was a gamble, but so was for Oreel. Fortunately, it worked out well on both sides and I am still grateful to Oreel for giving me this opportunity.
First, of course, I walked along on easy functions. I picked it up quickly and was soon allowed to operate the machine myself. It all went very smoothly. After a while I indicated that I wanted to stay with Oreel but then give more leadership. That has happened and I am now completely at home here. If you want a lot, there is a lot to do. Oreel is growing and technology is developing super fast, so this work remains challenging. I have a bright future ahead. I would say to people considering a different career, take the chance. If it matches your interests somewhat and you have the right mindset, you can go a long way.
