Modupe initially joined the Coople community for temporary work in 2019. After working in hospitality, Modupe worked temporarily as a Technical Support Specialist with JustEat before joining their permanent team in 2022.
“I registered with Coople because I was studying at the same time and it seemed very convenient. I liked the idea of being able to work in different places. This was important to me as I don’t typically enjoy working in the same place for a long time. Because of that, Coople seemed perfect for me and I loved the opportunity to try out different roles as a temporary worker.”
“I loved the opportunity to try out different roles as a temporary worker.”
“I started off in hospitality. One day, I happened to see the job posting for JustEat on the marketplace. Since it was a long-term remote role, I decided to give it a go. After that, I got a call regarding the job. I was asked a few questions about my experience, then I was invited to my first trial shift. Afterwards, I was consistently scheduled with them until they eventually offered me a permanent position.”
“When I started out with Coople, I was studying to be an event manager, but I changed career paths midway. I’m now studying to be a business analyst. Whilst I was studying, temporary work was a convenient way for me to pay for my fees and gain work experience for my career development.”
