Meet Agnes 👋, one of our career mentors

Hi,

My name is Agnes Billgren and I work as Business Developer at Extrapreneur AB. For the past few years, I've spent my time doing a poor impression of Liam Neeson from Taken; finding people who do not wish to be found. Liam spends his time finding pieces of the European mob, I spend my time finding senior developers and tech leads. Who’s to say who has the more difficult task?
