“Fairness is the basis of a number of things in human relations and I like finding it in all situations. At Aspena it is like that,” says Matúš Kováč, who works as a sales manager.

Three clicks on the web, job offers, Aspena - that’s looks good, I'm in! After all, they won’t just call me on their own. A couple of job interviews later and here I am!
I really needed a change. I needed to change my job, which was no longer fully satisfying, and at the same time I wanted to move forward in my career, to learn something new. In hindsight, I look back on this decision as one of the best in recent years.

I invest most of my working time into finding new customers and meeting potential customers. After all, I am a “sales guy”. I look for clients on the web, I approach them at trade fairs, business missions or cooperation exchanges. There are endless possibilities. Simply put, I find contacts wherever I can. I only stop doing this for a while if I’m compiling a quote for a customer who has expressed interest and said they would really like this service. Then I just concentrate on the calculation. It's an important step that shouldn’t to be spoiled by a moment’s inattention.

Everybody probably expects me to write all these nice things about the company, about my colleagues, superlative on superlative. But it's really true. I felt a sense of fairness from my very first interviews. Fairness is the basis of many things in interpersonal relationships and I myself like to find it in every situation. That’s how things work at Aspena. The same meter helps maintain fairness and thereby good collegial relations, which makes Aspena a great company in my eyes. And it's nice that they pay.

That's probably the keystone. I’m glad this is the case and that I’m aware of it. The work of a sales representative is varied, and I enjoy its multifaceted nature, the fact that every working day is different from the previous one. I enjoy going to meetings, meeting new people, responding to their questions and requests, and informing them about Aspena's products and services, and the high level of service. If I didn't believe in it myself, I wouldn't be able to offer it. And the customer would expose me.
Going to a business meeting and getting out of the office is often very pleasant. All the experts say that you shouldn't sit at a computer for long periods of time anyway, and according to the Ergonomics in the Office, Part 6, my monitor positioned correctly anyway.

Where do I see it? In my personal life. At Aspena, I have perfected the concept that you really have to deal with things right away and not put anything off for even five minutes. I assume you’ve heard statements of this type before, and I do not want to moralise. But they really are worth mentioning. This has been confirmed for me at work many times, and I now see myself translating this work experience into activities pertaining to my personal life. I don't mean to say I was a complete mess, but I have a much higher success rate now. Just keep it that way and it'll be fine.

Although I don't know if I will be able to place the monitor in the correct position required by the manual, I will definitely not stop attending the meetings. I decided to work in the business world four years ago and if I do something or dedicate myself to something, I never want to just give up on it. It would be a shame.
