Just Join IT in Olivia

Posted on by Katarzyna Halicka

Only a few years ago, they were just a harmonious duo, which in an apartment in Gdańsk’s Żabianka district formed the foundations of a company that currently employs over 200 people. Their promotional campaigns, thanks to their high creativity, are causing a stir in the entire advertising industry. Now Just Join IT is moving to Olivia Centre, where it has rented the 13th floor of the newest Olivia Prime building.

 

The company was founded in 2017 by two friends, Piotr Nowosielski and Tomasz Gański. From the very beginning, they were distinguished by their unconventional approach, high creativity and search for solutions that would change the recruitment portal market. They focused on ease, openness and efficiency. Today, their portfolio consists of the Just Join IT, RocketJobs.pl and HelloHR brands and they are among the largest recruitment portals, which are visited by a total of nearly one million people per month.

 

Just Join IT is the most popular portal with job offers for the IT industry in Poland. It has built its position on the market in just five years, completely without the support of investors. It is visited every month by over 0.5 million Polish programmers, who at the same time view the ads more than 4 million times. Global companies such as Nokia, Ericsson, Google, Netguru, InPost, Tiktok, GSK Tech, Wakacje.pl, Samsung, Volvo, WP.pl, Orange Polska, Nike, T-Mobile, Empik and Allegro published their job offers on the justjoin.it.

 

RocketJobs.pl is the job portal of the future for candidates from marketing, sales, finance, engineering, HR, BI & Data and many others. Behind RocketJobs.pl is a community of more than 170,000 active members, gathered in a few Facebook groups, and the job portal itself is already visited by more than 400,000 white-collar workers per month.

 

Hello HR is the first job board for the HR industry in Poland, which started its operations in 2019. So far, more than 2,000 companies have used the portal, and it is visited by over 20,000 users from the industry every month. The company also owns projects such as Just Geek IT, RocketSpace, and Oh My Dev. In addition, since 2021, they have also been recruiting among employees with the Ukrainian language.

 

The three most recognizable signs of a company are an informal atmosphere, creativity, and diligence. Already in the first year of operation, Piotr and Tomek thought about organizing a unique event for the IT industry. He implemented this idea on September 26, 2019 and turned into the Just Join Games Developer Olympiad, in which 350 participants participated. Competitors tested their strength in hard disk throwing, monitor push, 1024-meter run, Olympic scrum, laptop sprint, deploy twisting, work-life balance, firewall jump or timed keyboard folding. The next edition of the event is scheduled for September this year, and tickets for it are still available.

 

In the spring of this year, their promotional campaign Conversation about Work was widely acclaimed, as part of which the needs and expectations of the young generation towards work and employers were presented, which for the older generation provide both knowledge about the expectations of the generation entering the labour market and about changes in the approach to work-life balance.

 

“We chose Olivia because of the dynamic growth we are recording year on year and the simultaneous need for quality space in the very center of Gdańsk’s business district,” says Piotr Nowosielski, CEO of Just Join IT. – In addition, the layout of Olivia Business Centre allows us to integrate teams despite the ubiquitous remote work. We are convinced that the new workplace will be the next element of our professionalization as early as January 2023.

 

The company will occupy a very representative 13th floor in the Olivia Prime office building. It is the newest building of the largest business centre in Poland, whose leading stylistic motif is biophilia: its interiors are filled with plants, the main finishing material in the common areas is wood, and most of the offices have extensive terraces and loggias, often filled with plants. The interior design of the Just Join IT office will be the responsibility of the award-winning
Design Anatomy
 studio, whose portfolio includes the development of over 100,000m2 of office space, including Sii’s offices, the interiors of the observation deck and the conference center at the top of Olivia Star.

 

“Olivia’s ecosystem has been creating a number of innovative companies for years, and the entry of Just Join IT will complement our tenant portfolio with a new, exceptionally creative team ,” he says Bogusław Wieczorek, Plenipotentiary of the Management Board of Olivia Centre. – Their activity is noticeable on the market, their positive energy is contagious to everyone they come into contact with, so it is also an added value for us in terms of building our community.

RPG: Infinite worlds of imagination. Meet Martha, Olivia’s Adventure League Game Master!
		

			Posted on  by Katarzyna Halicka		

			


	

		
““Dungeons and Dragons” is definitely more than a game. It’s a phenomenon, a phenomenon, a story. It is the forerunner of all RPGs. And that’s right, if you only know the term RPG from the TV series “Stranger Things”, or you already know perfectly well what you are eating with and you are looking for companions to experience an amazing adventure, be sure to read a shortinterview with Marta Bukowska, the Master of the Game in the Adventure LeagueOlivia’s O’E. You’ll learn what madeher fall in love with RPGs, how this love comes in handy in her professional career, and why it’s worth becoming a part of the League’s creative community.


 


Ela Nowak, Olivia Centre: Where did your passion for RPGs come from?


 


Marta Bukowska, Adventure League: I consider myself a creative person, I’ve always liked interesting stories, I wanted to do something different, exciting, new. And that’s how D&D (Dungeons and Dragons) began. One evening, bored, I started looking up Uncle Google for information about D&D. I’d heard the name before, but it wasn’t something popular with my friends. So I got to know D&D as an adult, unlike my current friends from the League, most of whom have been playing since I was a child. That’s how my love for RPGs began. I was lost and I don’t regret it.


 




 


How did you joinOlivia’s Adventure League?


 


I’ve played and played games before, but I don’t think they were adventures with miniatures, boards, maps. Now it’s the norm for me, but before there were only computers and electronic mats and it was definitely not enough. How did I join the League? I found her by accident on Facebook, almost a year ago, when I wasn’t Olivia’s employee yet. During one of the games, Maciek from the League mentioned that they need DMs [Dungeon Master*]. And that’s how I stayed.


 


*Dungeon Master – The Game Master prepares the session for the players and then supervises the course of the game. It controls all events in the world and the behavior of characters that are not controlled by the players.


 


What do you like about the Adventure League?


 


For ease and flexibility. We are all busy people. Of course, it would be nice to run epic campaigns that last for years, but hardly anyone can afford that. In the Adventure League, I can assume that for the next two or three weeks I have time to meet on Tuesdays. And that’s it. Maybe I’ll take a two-month break and then join a new adventure? It’s up to me to decide; That’s a big plus.


 


We also don’t have to worry about space. After all, not everyone has the conditions to run campaigns at home. Not everyone has a 4-meter table [laughs].


 


There are new people coming in the league all the time, which is really cool. We even do sessions in English, for foreign-speaking players. There are no limits here. Anyway, I really wanted to play in English, because that’s how I started and that’s how I learned to play. My first teammates came from the USA, Germany or France. Translating RPGs into Polish was difficult, even though it’s my native language. I still don’t like some of the translations.


 


If you’re familiar with RPGs, you know how valuable it is to be able to play with different Game Masters. Each of them has a different style of gameplay. There are also various systems. It’s worth trying and opening up to new things.


 


In the League, we run not only D&D but also Cthulu, Clanarchy, and soon maybe Vampire Masquerade. So it’s always possible to try different systems to see what works for me. Choose what turns you on the most.


 




 


What is the prIs there an entry fee? I’m new, what’s going on with me?


 


You are met by four very friendly Game Masters. You meet a group of people who are just as positively crazy. Everyone has started out like you at some point, so don’t worry.


 


On Facebook, we announce the adventures we run. Each DM posts a short description and information on how many people can take part in the game; Usually 3 to 5. I, for one, am about to host “Mysterious Excavations.”


 


I usually start with the so-called. “session zero”. I meet with each person individually, especially when they are new, and guide them through the character creation process. I could give them a ready-made, but I like it when my players are creative, when they can empathize with their RPG alter-ego. I also briefly present the rules, tell you what the game looks like and what the game entails.


 


Should I take anything with me?


 


You don’t need to bring anything with you. Well, maybe a pencil, because there is always a shortage of them. Someone must be eating them [laughs]. We can print the character sheet, we have dice to lend. You just have to have the willingness. We laugh in the League that a new person should bring a good mood, the aforementioned pencil and snacks to bribe the DM [laughs]. However, the most important thing is to make the game fun for everyone.


 


Is there any adventure thatyou remember as the best?


 


You know, every adventure is different. I’m sorry, but RPG savoir-vivre doesn’t let me choose. [laughs].


 


What would you say to those whocan’t make up their minds?


 


They need to know that it’s not just for complete nerds [laughs]. There is no other place where you can create such amazing stories. There is no other place like this, where even the craziest plans can be put into practice. In the League, you can let your imagination run wild and you are not judged in any way for it. It’s a safe space for creative people. After all, it was the only place where the figure of a halfling barbarian could be created, fighting with a fork twice as much as her. After all, Praline, because that’s her name, I couldn’t create anywhere else! [laughs]


 


Has RPG changedanything in your life?


 


Thanks to RPGs, you are more open in your private life. You gain distance to yourself. I, for one, had a problem with showing what I liked. I was afraid that I would be judged for my hobby or by its prism. Unnecessarily. Now I believe in myself more. In addition, RPG forces you to think creatively outside the box, because non-standard problem solving is the order of the day here. It also taught me how to manage people, and as a player – how to work in a group. It works well as a way of team building in companies.


 


RPGs open up the world and open people up to the world. I think that’s cool.


 


What you need to know:


    

  • The adventure usually lasts 2-3 meetings
    • 

  • meetings are held on Tuesdays at O4 Coworking (Olivia Four)

Olivia with a maximum WELL score for an encore!
		

			Posted on  by Katarzyna Halicka		

			


	

		
Olivia Centre has maintained the world’s first maximum score in the international WELL certification. For the second time, it has been recognized as a completely safe, friendly and responsible place to work, receiving confirmation from the International Well Building Institute (IWBI) in New York. A year after the first certification, it maintained a maximum score of 25 points out of a possible 25 in all categories analyzed. The safety of building users was checked, as well as solutions improving the quality of life in the business centre. It received this rating in 22 basic categories and in 3 additional categories related to the innovations implemented in its area.


 


A year ago, Olivia achieved such a high result as the first business centre in the world, which confirms that Gdańsk’s buildings are among the world’s top business leaders. Olivia has confirmed its class for the second time – says Marcin Gawroński , Director of the Green Building Department at SWECO, the company responsible for carrying out the recertification in Olivia. –    Safety, employee well-being, and high indoor water and air quality are the hallmarks of WELL Health-Safety Rating facilities. Last year, Olivia Centre achieved the maximum score in all analysed categories and this year it repeated this achievement. This is a huge success and a confirmation of the safety conditions and responsible approach to the management of the Olivia building complex –  adds Marcin Gawroński.


 


The WELL Health-Safety Rating is a data-driven, third-party verified assessment for buildings, focusing on the analysis of operating policies, use and maintenance standards, stakeholder engagement and contingency plans to ensure maximum safety and comfort for their occupants. The certification is based on insights from nearly 600 government officials, scientists, business leaders, virologists, architects, designers, construction scientists, and real estate professionals, as well as the WELL building standard – the world’s leading platform for the development of healthy buildings and spaces. Many famous people from around the world have been involved in the extensive campaign for safety certification and restoring trust in public spaces, including Jennifer Lopez, Lady GaGa, Venus Williams, Robert DeNiro, Michael Jordan and many more.


 


You can view a campaign video on this page.


 


Proving actions through external validation confirms the commitment and concern for people’s well-being in every aspect. The assessment shows that Olivia Centre prioritises health and wellbeing, instilling confidence in frequent visitors and the wider community around it –  wrote in a congratulatory letter  Rachel Gordon,  CEO of the International Well Building Institute in New York.


 


In addition to the well-being of building occupants, WELL certification includes a precise assessment of extensive infrastructure that improves safety and quality of life and work. A number of solutions have been noticed in Olivia Centre, which position it as a leader in the implementation of technologies that protect the health and life of employees in an imperceptible way. Olivia was one of the first office centers in the world to implement ion air purification technology in its buildings, previously used in the world’s most prestigious facilities, including the White House, the Presidential Palace in Abu Dhabi, as well as in Gulfstream’s private jets. The installed devices saturate all rental areas with ions that have the ability to destroy viruses, bacteria and other pathogens in the ventilated air. The air purification process takes place continuously while people are in the room, so the fight against the pathogen begins from the moment it appears in the room.


 


In addition, the air filtration level has been increased from G4 to F7 in air handling units, which is one of the highest filtration levels currently available. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and particulate matter (PM) sensors were installed. Thanks to this, it is possible to monitor air purity and, as a result, eliminate harmful compounds from the fresh air drawn in from the outside and forced inside the buildings. Systems for controlling the intensity of air exchange based on the knowledge of current CO2 measurement results have also been installed, which contributes to a significant increase in the comfort of staying in the workplace.


 


The certification also includes initiatives implemented in the field of employee well-being. Projects organized on Olivia’s patio, sports sections, exhibitions of paintings, photographs and sculptures, as well as a publicly accessible, year-round exotic garden, in which there are nearly 4 thousand plants reaching up to 11 meters in height, were noticed. All these events and amenities can be used by Olivia’s residents and guests in a safe way, thanks to the solutions used. The sum of the solutions adopted resulted in such a high rating of the IWBI.

7 years of O4 Coworking… in numbers!
		

			Posted on  by Katarzyna Halicka		

			


	

		
Our O4 Coworking is celebrating its 7th anniversary! So let’s give the floor to the representatives of O4, who decided to tell us about themselves… Numbers. And there’s a lot to be proud of!  


 


THEREFORE… O4 COWORKING ABOUT ITSELF!  


 


There are currently 167 of us, even though we are 1 coworking space and we are only 7 years old! How is that possible? The answer can be found in the O4ian satisfaction surveys, which we have been systematically conducting for years, and this is confirmed by the fact that although the pandemic caused a temporary regression in office leasing, in subsequent quarters of 2020 we observed a systematic rebound. On the occasion of the 7. On the occasion of the birthday of O4 Coworking, we had to sum up. Since the end of winter this year, we have been able to celebrate everyday life together at work again, and in July we rented the last, 65th year. office. Take a look at what we got out of these numbers.


 


We’re still growing


During the first half of 2022, 37 companies joined O4 and thus we are approaching a situation in which the O4 Coworking team will be left without an office. However, this is good news for us, the companies that are with us are gradually growing and it also happens that they migrate between spaces – from smaller to larger ones. Since February 2015, almost 500 companies of all sizes have passed through our coworking space. Currently, the O4ian community consists of about 1400 people who meet in an area of about 4000 m2. In the second quarter of 2022, we broke our sales record.


 




 




 


We like to learn


Those who are with us know that O4 Coworking is not only about offices and desks, but also about shared time, integration, networking and workshops – that is Warsztatownia.


 


Since 2018, two years before the creation of O4 Flow – a coworking space for women, 79 per cent of women have been working in the EU. The participants of our workshops were women. Among the most popular topics, chosen by about two-thirds of people, were: project management, personal branding, self-presentation and negotiations. Others willingly participated in trainings in the areas of creativity, communication and e-commerce.


 


The temporary switch to webinars during the pandemic increased the reach of the Workshop. 2020 was a record-breaking year in terms of the number of participants. We still prefer to learn in autumn. Our research shows that it is at this time of the year that the Workshop is most popular.


 


In general, live workshops win over online ones. They are chosen by 59 per cent. Participants. With the passing of the pandemic, there is also less and less interest in webinars – from a few hundred people to 20 during a webinar.


 






We are stationary and … Virtually


It’s been two years since we launched our virtual office service. This year, since August, we have expanded its scope and customers have more options, such as flexible access to desks, conference rooms on preferential terms, as well as the attractions of Olivia Centre – Olivia Garden or the observation deck.


 


After the change of packages, about 70 per cent. of customers have opted for the GOLD option, which, in addition to the registered address and correspondence handling, also provides access to the space and access to the attractions of Olivia Centre.


 


Dynamic changes and crises cause various bumps, but so far the upcoming recession has turned out to be the time of the greatest growth for us.


 


 




 


 


What will the 8th year bring for O4 Coworking? We look at it with great curiosity and we are ready for the next challenges.

Olivia Garden awarded the prestigious 2022 European Property Awards!
		

			Posted on  by Katarzyna Halicka		

			


	

		
Our phenomenal Olivia Garden, the only exotic garden in Poland located in the heart of the business center, has been awarded the prestigious 2022 European Property Awards, in the “Landscape Architecture” category. The winners were: Malinowski Design Urban & Landscape, which  he is the author of the project and Olivia Centre – the investor and operator of the garden.


 


The competition, which dates back to 1993, brings together the best projects from all over Europe. Every year, several thousand investors from all over the world submit their applications, and the winning projects are selected by a jury consisting of real estate market experts, architects, journalists and investment advisors. The projects compete in four categories: investment, architecture, interior design and the real estate market, where the achievements of industry leaders are awarded.


 


Olivia Garden  is a carefully designed space with an area of nearly 800 m2, filled with thousands of tropical plants, representing over 150 different species of plants from such exotic countries as Indonesia, Australia, New Guinea, Madagascar, Malaysia, Borneo, Costa Rica, Venezuela, and the tropical forests of the Amazon.  In addition to numerous plants reaching 2-3 meters in height, more than 30 large trees have been planted in the garden, the largest of which reach up to 11 meters above the ground.


 




  Olivia Garden

 is the result of innovative thinking about the nature of the workplace, where the proximity of nature has a positive effect on well-being and work efficiency. The project was created in response to the needs of the residents of the business centre and for the residents of the Tri-City, for whom it is another attraction and a proposal to spend their free time.


 


Olivia Garden has been divided into 4 zones to offer space for various activities. In the shade of the Bucida Bucerasblack olive nestled in the vast mezzanine, there is a TiKi-style bar, serving fresh cocktails and light oriental cuisine. The garden is perfect as a space for social and business meetings, independent work and rest, as well as for lectures, workshops or concerts, as it has an amphitheatre, tables hidden among dense vegetation and comfortable relaxation areas.


 


“I am very pleased that the work we have done together is so highly appreciated, this time by the jury of the European Property Awards ,” says Dariusz Malinowski from Malinowski Design Urban & Landscape. –  It also shows that such solutions are expected by users. Guests who have already visited our garden know that it is an extraordinary “jungle” in which a person feels full comfort and plants develop luxuriantly. It is a truly living organism in which we have provided the plants with ideal growing conditions. This is evidenced literally and figuratively by the fruits of our labor, as we more and more often harvest papaya, pomegranate or cocoa fruits growing on trees in the garden. And they are not at all there just for decoration, because once they are ripe, they end up in the kitchen or Tiki bar, where exotic cocktails are prepared to make them. I would like to thank everyone who took part in the project for their passion for work and determination.


 


The aim of Olivia Garden is to provide a new quality of spending time, work and relaxation in direct connection with nature, regardless of the season and weather conditions. The glazed body has a characteristically sloping roof, referring to the architecture of the top of the Olivia Star building, at the base of which it is located, and the historic body of the Olivia Hall, with which Olivia is adjacent. The Malinowski Design Urban & Landscape studio is responsible for the interior design design, and the Design Anatomy studio was responsible for the implementation. Work on the final concept lasted many months and involved not only architects and botanists, but also an interdisciplinary team of specialists, consulting solutions with the residents of Olivia Centre.


 


– After months of operation, Olivia Garden has already become a mature project, and the plants have already undergone full acclimatization, so they are growing lushly, creating a unique impression on all guests, who can try sweet and juicy papayas – says Bogusław Wieczorek, Olivia Centre’s representative. It is very important that this space is appreciated by our residents, who use it on a daily basis as a place offering respite, relaxation, but also a space that allows for concentration and stimulates creativity. It is an absolutely unique project, which is also appreciated by numerous Tri-City residents and tourists. This is particularly important to us, because we want everyone to feel at home in Olivia. That’s why we’ve been developing features that appeal to a wide audience for years and that attract guests all day, 7 days a week. Particularly popular is the observation deck, which is located on the 32p. Olivii Star, prestigious restaurants of 33p. or the conference and event center from the 34. Floors. It is worth recalling that these spaces have already been awarded in the European Property Awards competition in 2020, and previously won the award of the Marshal of the Pomeranian Voivodeship as the event of the year.
