Reimo, a job shadow from Tallinn Technical University Taltech visited the Uptime Tallinn office to see one of the project manager’s usual working days. He finished the day with a positive impression, and does not doubt any more whether the project manager’s job could be suitable for him – certainly it is, but he would like to be more familiar with various aspects.
