Greatest achievements
My greatest achievement to date at TUI was supporting the teams migrate Belgium & Netherlands onto our Future Payments Platform! This was a great experience which was challenging at times, but I have had the opportunity to expand my network at TUI as well as learn more about the payment processing journey within these regions ranging from capabilities to user preferences for specific payment methods!

Top Insider Advice
The most important thing I have learnt working at TUI is the importance of being genuine and bringing your personality to work - it makes you feel a lot better and as everyone is treated as an individual and allows teammates to understand what works best for you. TUI as a company is incredibly supportive of this as well, and it helps to make you feel like you belong in the team and makes it more than just work.

Top Insider Advice
I have always been an introvert, but working at TUI has helped me push myself. By volunteering to help on different projects and saying 'yes' to opportunities has meant that I have had the chance to work with so many different people and expose myself to different projects. This has enabled me to develop a larger skillset and helped increase my confidence. I'm always willing to try new things and think of different solutions which is key at TUI since we really value innovation. If you want to develop yourself and in turn, your career, then don't be afraid to push yourself outside of your comfort zone and say yes.

Top Insider Advice
I think you should be aware that communication and presentation skills, motivation and the will to grow and further develop your abilities are not only buzzwords but skills that are often underestimated but quite relevant for the work of a Data Scientist. I often have to explain and present the approaches I used and the results I obtained on various levels of granularity to different audiences. For example, when discussing with other data scientists in the company I need to be able to explain how a method works in detail. In contrast to that I have to focus on the business implications of my modeling choices when talking to the business colleagues or to managers. For the latter audience it is usually more relevant to understand the general idea of an approach rather than the details of how it is working. It is not easy to switch between these settings and to find a proper way of communicating to each of these different kinds of audiences but keep in mind that this will be a relevant part of your work as a Data Scientist. Additionally, lifelong learning is not only a buzzword at TUI. You should be motivated to actually stay up to date with the current state of the art Machine Learning procedures and bring motivation and initiative to continue your learning process. As a team, we are deeply involved in decisions that concern the way we work and the tools we use. Therefore, we have to keep track of new developments in the world of Data Science and Machine Learning and need to be willing to adopt new methods or tools if we expect them to be useful for our daily work.
