We asked our colleagues what they'd be missing from Xeropan if they didn't work together. This is what they said:

Bence Fagyal, Lead Content Development: "I'd be missing the people, the team. I'd be missing the fact that I have a say in what we do and how it operates and the fact that I can manage my own office hours."

Tamás Jurcsák, Creative marketing "The youthful lads in the team. Flexibility. The daily that go with exciting and versatile work. The constant development and improvement I experience. The burger place just around the corner from the office :)"

    The US unemployment rate fell to a five-year low of 6.7% in December as firms created 74,000 new jobs, latest figures show. However, the number of jobs created was the lowest for three years and was well under half the number expected by analysts. The US had bad weather in December, which may have stalled hiring plans. The fall in the rate, now at its lowest since October 2008, in part reflects people leaving the labour force. The government counts people as unemployed only if they say they are actively searching for work. The leisure, manufacturing and services sectors added jobs in December, but construction cut 16,000 jobs, the biggest drop in the industry in 20 months.

Once you’re done, we’ll contact you in a week or two via phone or email

Thank you
