The Best Job in the World
Have you ever thought about the people behind be2? Ever considered whether the people who write these blog posts, customer emails, or website content, like their job? Whether be2 is a good workplace? I’d like to tell you a little about working at be2:
At be2, a job is not just a job. Everyone is involved in our shared project, to help singles find the right match, but each individual employee contributes to that goal in a different way. We are a young workplace with lots of energy, creativity, and positive inspiration. There’s always space for new ideas and initiatives. Projects are being launched constantly, and thought is usually followed by action… with a little translation help, since we come from 37 countries. We’re proud of our job – helping people find love – and this year we’re especially proud of having reached 20 million members worldwide.

Meet the be2 Team: Mojitos Amigos
Mojitos Amigos? What kind of a name is that? Well, today, we are not introducing a member of the be2 team, but a team within the be2 team. An Agile team, to be exact. Agile is a software development process that allows developers to work more flexibly and in teams. Mojitos Amigos are one such team and you can tell that they just LOVE the Agile development process and the team spirit. They are so enthusiastic about it that they even filled in our “Meet the be2 Team” questionnaire as a team! For more information you can visit the Mojitos Amigos Blog.
How does Agile work?
Agile is about the people, not the processes.
How was the team formed?
During a special event, the names of be2 developers were randomly pronounced and they had either to create a new team (until there are 5), or to join one of the created teams. Thus a new team was started by Anahit, and one after the other Nerses, Ishkhan, Gevorg, Ani, Narek, and Armine joined, creating “Mojitos-Amigos”.
Why did you choose that name?
Did any of the amigos have too many Mojitos the day before?
Why you are working like this in a team?
We have a special blend of characters, which make the team unique!
How do you contribute to be2 members finding the love of their lives?
We have wide knowledge in be2 system, covering all the users’ lifecycle on the website… (Starting from the Guest Home Page, followed by Registration, Payment and…)
