Melek, thank you for interviewing with us. Can you tell us about your journey into the field of HR? What inspired you to pursue this career path, and how did you start working with Qoolize?


When choosing my university department, I wanted to have a career in human resources. I like to do research in the field of psychology and read books. I knew that the field where I could combine this interest with my competencies in business life was human resources. My journey with Qoolize started with one of my friend's phone calls and interviews about a possible collaboration. The offer immediately sounded attractive and intriguing. In addition, having followed Qoolize's path to success made me want to contribute and be a part of this success.

I believe that constructive approaches should be promoted and refined.

What do you find most rewarding about working in HR?


The most rewarding part is the chance to observe all employees closely, work to provide them with opportunities to use their potential most efficiently and create employee-oriented strategies.

Employees' attitudes toward their work shape the company culture. The company's founders established and guided this approach. I believe that constructive approaches should be promoted and refined. These approaches shape the ethos of each team.

How do you approach fostering a positive company culture within our organization?

Technology is advancing super fast, and now AI is taking over some professionals; what do you think about the future of work? How will it be?


I think AI positively affects many areas of our business. When we consider it as an assistant that facilitates our work, it dramatically supports our research processes and planning. However, I do not think artificial intelligence can influence strategizing and relationship management. However, it can only be developed in a specific field and become competent if it gains experience. I guess we'll have to wait and see :)

The company's growth strategies are formed in parallel with employee satisfaction.

This situation is a challenge for all human resources professionals. When employer and employee expectations are far from each other, human resources strive to balance the two sides. At Qoolize, my most significant edge is that employers are as aware of employee expectations as they are of their expectations, which makes me very comfortable. Since the company's growth strategies are aligned with employee satisfaction, it is easier to manage expectations.
