I think this role would be perfect for me, as it combines the things I like: social and data science. It is technical enough that it can help me grow in that part, but it also requires research and soft skills. I like that it seems I will have a lot of independence in my work. I also think I would love the company's atmosphere.

I love taking the pain away from people.
The landscape of payments before Adyen was fragmented, expensive and painful.
I am excited by the opportunity to take away pain.

Rachelle's Feedback

Good start! One suggestion is to unpack the idea of pain further since this is pretty general. This frustration that Adyen's ideal client/user feels - what roadblocks do they face specifically? Which of these roadblocks are you most excited to help them overcome?
