ABOUT US

At Udemy, we’re on a mission to transform lives through learning. Through our intelligent skills platform and a global community of instructors, we’ve helped over 70 million learners and 16,000 organizations achieve their goals. Come join us in ensuring everyone, everywhere has access to the skills they need to unlock their potential and create possibilities for themselves and others.

ABOUT YOUR SKILLS

• Consulting: You see beyond the presenting problem and identify the fundamental ‘why’. You are a strong systems thinker and co-design potential solutions with the leader and people partner.
• Influencing: You develop relationships effectively up, down, and across the organization and are able to strategically use these relationships to help move your work forward. You scope a solution that will “get to yes” and also are capable of pushing back on disagreement if they will not provide the outcome needed for the team or the business.
• Decision Making: You use critical thinking to follow a defined decision making process and consider multiple perspectives. Upon making a decision, you are clear in your communication and ensure everyone is aligned in execution.
• Coaching: You have strong coaching skills that allow you to actively listen and ask the kind of questions that will help you diagnose and effectively address issues.
  We understand that not everyone will match each of the above qualifications. However, we also realize that everyone has unique experiences that can add value to our company. Even if you think your background might not perfectly align, we’d love to hear from you!
