I first studied media technologies in Austria and then moved on working for a company in Munich. After that I accepted my new post with G&amp;D.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tobias<\/strong>: Hello, my name is Tobias Dreier and I am also 29 years old. I am new in the <strong>International Sales<\/strong> team here at G&amp;D. Before that I completed my apprenticeship becoming a sales clerk. Then I took up studies at the University of Siegen.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1213\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1213\" style=\"width: 302px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.gdsys.de\/en\/files\/2013\/03\/kiflom_dreier.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1213    \" title=\"Photo of Tobias Dreier and Alexander Kiflom\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.gdsys.de\/en\/files\/2013\/03\/kiflom_dreier.jpg\" width=\"302\" height=\"202\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1213\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left to right: Tobias Dreier, Alexander Kiflom and our KVM-Wingman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>How did you get to find out about G&amp;D?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexander:<\/strong> Working in Munich as a systems engineer I regularly\u00a0 integrated <strong>KVM technology<\/strong> \u2013 that is how I first came across G&amp;D. Being more and more intrigued by the technology I had a look at the G&amp;D webpage to gather more product information\u00a0 also wanting to find out more about the company itself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tobias:<\/strong> I saw a sales post being adverstised in the local paper. My uncle, who works for the regional Chamber of Commerce, had heard about G&amp;D and the company\u2019s\u00a0 good reputation; thus he strongly recommended G&amp;D.<\/p>\n<p>Next thing I had a closer look at the G&amp;D webpage, which did not at all look old-fashioned. The company itself seemed to be employee friendly and socially minded.<\/p>\n<p><b>Did you have any prior expectations ?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexander:<\/strong> I was looking for a <strong>relaxed working atmoshpere<\/strong>. Being part of the technical support division this is even more important, because we have to work as one team in order to give our customers the best possible solution.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tobias:<\/strong> I, too, was looking for a good working atmosphere. But also for <strong>new challenges<\/strong>, which are naturally given when you deal with complex technologies. Other than that, I appreciate that <a title=\"Click here for more information about G&amp;D\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gdsys.de\/en\/company\/\">G&amp;D<\/a> is a continiously growing midsized company offering new opportunities as well as change &amp; variety.<\/p>\n<p><b>Have your expectations been fullfilled so far ?\u00a0 <\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexander:<\/strong> Yes, my <strong>expectations<\/strong> have certainly been <strong>fullfilled<\/strong>. People are all very friendly and supportive. Working in the new team really gives me a lot of pleasure. And with time you develop a certain sense of ambition wanting to help each customer as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n<p>It is indeed satisfactory to be something like the final authority analysing and repairing any system malfunction. Having a worldwide customer base also adds to the challenge. I also enjoy very much being on site with the customer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tobias:<\/strong> I can only agree with what was said. Any questions arising, my new colleagues are there to support me. Personally I am also intrigued by the <strong>various markets<\/strong> into which G&amp;D sell their products worldwide. This is really astonishing.<\/p>\n<p><b>Have you settled in well ? <\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexander:<\/strong> Yes, very well indeed. Thanks to my colleagues I could easily and actively\u00a0 make my contribution to the daily tasks. I find work extremly diverse, because I am forever contacting different people around the globe<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tobias:<\/strong> I also settled in quite well. However, there is still much to be learned, because KVM technology is not quite as simple as it may look at first glance. But, I am getting there !<\/p>\n<p><b>Thanks a lot for your time and interview !
