Wondering who are the people working behind the scenes at Prograin? In this article, we\u2019ll introduce you to Haleigh Houston, one of our valued employees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have worked at Prograin since autumn 2017, and I work in the Export department. My post is Export documentation agent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I did not take a specific course. I had some previous experience working in Logistics, which helps my job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I did not know very much about soybeans before Prograin, except that I have been a vegetarian for 16 years and many meat substitutes that I enjoy are made from soy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No, I didn\u2019t know anything about the company before I started working there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prograin feels different than other companies because I feel very valued here. My supervisors ask my opinions and I feel like I am an important part of the \u201cfamily\u201d. Prograin is open-minded and is willing to work with the employees to make an environment that is comfortable and supportive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The three words that come to mind when talking about Prograin are: supportive, motivational and flexible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best part of my job is that I am self-sufficient. I have supportive team members to help me when I need it and the supervisors do not micromanage. Instead, they motivate me to keep a high standard of work while giving me the freedom to work as an individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Always keep improving my French, maintain good relationships with clients, keep a positive attitude in the office and help my team to develop new procedures that make all of our jobs more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The biggest challenge for me is being from California, French is not my first language, and I only started learning it 4 years ago, so I have had to practice a lot. My coworkers are very patient when I don\u2019t know how to say something in French and eager to help me improve when I ask for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I live in Montr\u00e9al and I love to walk around the city. I like to explore new neighborhoods and try new food and coffee. I also have a large balcony garden and spend most days working in my garden or cooking with vegetables that I grew in my garden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, I love music and I play guitar, so when I am not working in my garden or exploring the city, you can find me playing guitar or listening to records. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
