- Why did you choose BlackCell? How did you decide you wanted to work here?
I wanted to start my career in IT security in an environment where I could gain insight into multiple aspects of the field while continuously developing my skills. It was important for me to be able to make the most of my professional potential and have room for creative thinking, all within an energetic and modern team. A close friend of mine recommended BlackCell for exactly these reasons, and that’s ultimately how I ended up here.
- How would you describe BlackCell in three words?
Flexible, dynamic, innovative
- What do you like most about BlackCell?
The environment and the team I get to work in: everyone is open-minded, supportive, and it creates a genuinely positive atmosphere in our day-to-day work.
- Who would you recommend the company to?
To those who are looking for continuous growth, diverse tasks, and real professional challenges, and who would enjoy being part of an open-minded, flexible and supportive community.
- What positive surprises have you had with the company?
I was positively surprised by how quickly hard work, dedication, and genuine interest can lead to tangible results – whether it’s successfully handling an incident or earning new opportunities for growth. Recognition is not only present on a professional level, but also in everyday verbal feedback: when you do something well, it’s acknowledged and appreciated.
- Tell us about a BlackCell success you are proud of!
I joined the company as a beginner in IT Security, so I set high expectations for myself from the start to catch up professionally. The effort eventually paid off: within a relatively short time, I was able to move from an L1 SOC Analyst position toward specializing in Threat Intelligence and Threat Hunting, and eventually progress to L2 SOC Analyst – all within 2.5 years.
- Tell us about your favorite BlackCell experience!
One of the best experiences for me has been building genuinely strong friendships with some of my colleagues. We often organize activities outside of work as well, whether it’s grabbing a beer and chatting or playing online games together in the evening.
- Who among your colleagues has had the greatest influence on you and why?
It’s hard to highlight just one person, because for me, our team as a whole has the biggest impact. We work closely together every day, and everyone brings a unique perspective or way of thinking that inspires the others. This environment constantly motivates us to improve – whether professionally, in problem-solving, or in communication skills. I believe it’s this shared dynamic that truly drives us forward.
- Why is it worth applying here?
Because you get real opportunities for professional growth in a supportive, dynamic and open-minded environment. You can work on diverse challenges, develop quickly, and be part of a team where not only your performance is valued, but also who you are and what you bring to the team.
- How has BlackCell helped you in terms of your future?
The company set me on a clear professional path within the IT field, where continuous growth and advancement opportunities are always present. Through diverse tasks and challenges, I’ve been able to gain new knowledge while also getting insight into different areas thanks to the close collaboration between different teams. On top of that, I’d risk to say I’ve built a few friendships here that will last a lifetime.
- What kind of community/social experience does BlackCell offer?
We regularly organize team-building events, from outings to themed activities like carnival costume events or Christmas dinners, but what I’d highlight in particular are the LAN parties, which have become a big favorite among the gamer colleagues.
- What is one or two sentences you would use to convince others to apply to BlackCell?
If you’re looking for a place where you can grow quickly, work on real professional challenges, and be surrounded by a supportive and fun team, then this is the place for you.
