Every day, I experience a thrill of finding solutions which others can’t find.
Why did you consider working for Nordson?
I heard about a vacancy here from a friend and I decided to look up the company. Even with the little that I initially saw, I was very impressed. It was – and still is – easy to see that Nordson is a leader across many lines of business.
I began my career at Nordson in several years ago at the Delhi office. I was employed as the Regional Sales Manager for the Industrial Coatings division there and I had to develop the Nordson market from scratch.
In early 2010, I learned of a position here in Bangalore and I jumped at the opportunity to move back home. I am now the Regional Sales Manager for the Adhesives division.
How would you describe your experience of working at Nordson?
Work is never boring here; it’s never the same. We are constantly faced with challenging applications that require creative solutions. Thankfully, this doesn’t allow for monotony to settle in. Every day, I experience a thrill of finding solutions which others can’t find.
For me, one of the best things about working at Nordson is the cohesive team I work with. The people here are exceptionally professional. I also enjoy a great deal of freedom to exercise my discretion. The company displays a lot of faith in its employees.
What, would you say, sets Nordson apart from other companies in its field?
The people working here are the ones who really make the company. Besides that, I would say its professionalism, and ability to always deliver what it promises. The Nordson brand is what you would call an “aspirational brand”. I take pride in reestablishing, time and again, our customers’ confidence in Nordson’s technology, especially for critical applications. I really believe that Nordson will venture where others wouldn’t dare. Because of this, the company has seen phenomenal growth over the last few years.
Are there any favourite moments you treasure from your time here?
It’s difficult to pin down a favourite. We have certainly had our share of fun here. There was… one time when we all got together with our families at a party and everybody participated very enthusiastically in an impromptu music session. That really brought the whole crowd together in a way that I hadn’t experienced before. Yes, I would say that that memory stands out for me.
What are your interests outside of work?
I enjoy reading; particularly books that are philosophy-based. J. Krishnamurthy is one author I really enjoy.
