Bio
Karin A.
In short - Sofya is great! Hard-working, analytical, curious, brilliant humour, considerate, high integrity, holistic view with respect for details... She created our relaunched environmental training for Sony Europe and supported several colleagues with sustainability analysis during her internship at Sony in Lund, Jan-Mar 2023. Last but not least, it is always a pleasure to hang out with her during lunch or Swedish "fika", so conclusion, Sofya is great!

During our close collaboration at Sony, I had the opportunity to observe Sofya's work firsthand and was highly impressed by her creative approach, collaborative spirit, and problem-solving skills. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a deep commitment to producing high-quality work, consistently delivering outstanding results that exceeded expectations. Her approach to teamwork is exemplary, always taking the time to understand her colleagues' perspectives and working collaboratively to find solutions that benefit the team and project. What stood out to me most about her was her ability to adapt quickly to new environments and roles. She seamlessly integrated into our team, quickly gaining an understanding of the project's goals and requirements. Her innovative ideas and suggestions helped shape the project's direction, resulting in an outstanding outcome that exceeded our expectations. Furthermore, her organizational skills are second to none, ensuring that all project tasks were completed on time and to an exceptional standard. Sofya's attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously were invaluable to the project's success. Overall, I have no hesitation in recommending Sofya for any role that requires a creative, skilled, and dedicated individual. She is a great team player who consistently delivers high-quality work, and I am confident that she will make a valuable contribution to any organization that she joins.
