New Team Member: Ruchita

Tell us a little about your most recent work experiences...

Most recently I have worked at HESTA which an industry super fund for healthcare workers. Before that, I have worked for a fintech in Credit reporting and debt collection and a couple of big banks. I have worked in various streams of the finance domain as a Test Analyst, Lead, Technical BA, but testing remains to be what I do best.

Don’t be shy, tell us your super powers!

My super loud voice?! On multiple occasions I have had people tell me that they found me on office floors by just following my sound (so embarrassing!).

Share a little bit about your personal interests...

I enjoy long walks and playing badminton. When indoors I love binging good shows and movies.

Which small business do you personally love the most...

A wine shop called Blackhearts & Sparrows on Lygon street when I lived there. They used to have a black board out every evening with a dad joke or a silly pun – made me smile everyday on my walk home from the tram stop.

Favourite movie, song and food!

• Movie – Recently watched Don’t Look up on Netflix which I absolutely loved. Love any historical dramas, WW2 movies, crime thrillers (yeah, I am a bit weird).
• Song – Oh, keeps changing all the time. Growing up in India, I have listened to a lot of A R Rahman songs which I still keep going back to. More recently, I have discovered George Ezra (what a unique voice) and Shotgun is a current favourite.
• Food – Love a good pizza, I think it should become breakfast food.

We're excited to see what you do at Thriday, Ruchita.
