question
01
Why did you join the company?
In my previous job, I worked for a company in a different industry, and when I decided to change jobs, I looked at a wide range of companies without limiting myself to a specific field.
Because I have always enjoyed manufacturing, I explored many companies involved in production, and during that process I learned that this company produces the rare and specialized product of rifle scopes and aims to be the best in the world.
Wanting to take part in that manufacturing challenge and contribute to it myself, I decided to join the company.
