CAREER TIPS: “One piece of career advice I often give is to look ahead, not behind. My favorite quote is "Why worry? If you've done the very best you can, worrying won't make it any better"- Walt Disney. I think we all spend too much time worrying about decisions or mistakes we have made. But mistakes are a part of life and they are how we grow. Learn to accept them, learn from your experiences and keep moving forward.” Kurt Mehler, Recruiter IKEA Service Office, Conshohocken, PA
What does PRIDE and working at IKEA mean to you? “Dedicating full time to my job, IKEA has become a second home that brings me the comforts of #acceptance. Raising the #Pride flag incites awareness and sets IKEA apart as a company that values life and love in all forms. At IKEA, I receive great benefits; as well as the equal opportunities to pass those benefits along to my wife to help start and grow our family. I am so proud IKEA honors our #uniqueness and celebrates our individuality globally." - Thara Moise, IKEA Conshohocken
#CareerTips "When interviewing, you’re almost always asked “tell me about yourself.” That’s why I recommend job seekers hone their 30-second elevator pitch. Once you have the information you want to share, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE! Delivering it should be natural and conversational for you. Being able to effectively share your professional summary and the value you have to offer could be the key to your next opportunity!

Meet Tanja: "I joined the IKEA family in Switzerland as a logistics and warehouse trainee. I never imagined that today, 18 years later, I would be leading all of IKEA U.S. Logistics; responsible for 50 retail stores, 8 warehouses, 9 customer distribution centers and 5 central parcel units across the country. During my journey, I also worked in Sweden, Germany, Poland and even China. IKEA offered me the encouragement and tools to pursue my leadership role in logistics; often a non-traditional career path for women. It’s absolutely true that the career possibilities at IKEA are endless! Tanja Dysli, Head of Customer Fulfillment, IKEA U.S. IKEA US Service Office (Headquarters), Conshohocken, PA **Many people think “working at IKEA” means working at an IKEA Retail Store.
