16 00:01:23.910 ⇒ 00:01:30.570 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, Japan, Philippines, we are the first line of defense when it comes to typhoons.
17 00:01:32.060 ⇒ 00:01:33.810 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, yeah.
18 00:01:33.960 ⇒ 00:01:50.700 Rico Rejoso: So, let me begin by, this is just a quick onboarding. I know you, pretty much, we’ve onboarded you on most of our tools, so, and you’ve met most of the people at Brainforge. Everything’s so quick when it comes to your ownboarding, because we really are in need of someone like you on the team.
19 00:01:50.730 ⇒ 00:02:03.759 Rico Rejoso: So, I’m hoping that you’re managing to, you know, adapt to what BrainPorch is doing right now. And if, you know, anything comes into mind, like, if you need assistance up on anything, just let me know. I’m on the operations side.
20 00:02:03.810 ⇒ 00:02:14.679 Rico Rejoso: And, you know, Utam is not available every time, so if you need help, you can go to me, Awash, probably, since, he is the, lead.
21 00:02:15.060 ⇒ 00:02:22.710 Rico Rejoso: in the engineering department, just let me know, and I can direct you to the people that you need to be with if you need any help with that, okay?
22 00:02:23.020 ⇒ 00:02:23.720 Ashwini Sharma: Chill.
23 00:02:23.960 ⇒ 00:02:24.730 Rico Rejoso: Alright.
24 00:02:24.890 ⇒ 00:02:28.220 Rico Rejoso: So, yeah, to begin this,
25 00:02:28.820 ⇒ 00:02:32.049 Rico Rejoso: Quick onboarding, just wanted to let you know what Brainforge is.
26 00:02:32.050 ⇒ 00:02:34.320 Ashwini Sharma: So again, yeah, welcome to Brainforge.
27 00:02:34.460 ⇒ 00:02:35.729 Ashwini Sharma: Thank you. So…
28 00:02:36.210 ⇒ 00:02:43.559 Rico Rejoso: Great to have you here. The purpose of this orientation is just to introduce you to Brainforge mission, culture, values,
29 00:02:44.060 ⇒ 00:02:49.660 Rico Rejoso: Also, help you understand some of our tools, which we have onboarded you with.
30 00:02:50.000 ⇒ 00:02:53.149 Rico Rejoso: And also to ensure that you’re set up.
31 00:02:53.310 ⇒ 00:02:55.700 Rico Rejoso: To success from day one.
32 00:02:56.040 ⇒ 00:03:00.449 Rico Rejoso: So, our mission is just to simply help businesses when it comes to their
33 00:03:00.740 ⇒ 00:03:04.929 Rico Rejoso: the AI and data needs to drive faster and smarter decisions.
34 00:03:05.260 ⇒ 00:03:20.029 Rico Rejoso: We envision, brain fortune vision that everybody eats. We operate like giants, so we’re not just faking it till you make it, manifesting, we also try to be in that, place as well. And we give back and pay forward.
35 00:03:20.230 ⇒ 00:03:39.349 Rico Rejoso: So, as you know, the owner, founder of Brainforge with Thomas is not someone that is hard to talk with, definitely has been assisting everyone from day one as well, so he is very approachable, so he always takes back and bring forward as much as Brainforge can provide to its team members.
36 00:03:39.800 ⇒ 00:03:52.069 Rico Rejoso: So, as you know, explained to you probably during the interviews, is what we offer is data platform and analytics, and automations, and training and enablement.
37 00:03:52.300 ⇒ 00:04:10.050 Rico Rejoso: For now, I think this is the most recent service offering that we have, but in the coming weeks, probably months, as you stay here in Dreamforce, we’ll definitely let you know what more we can offer as well, because we’re also, you know, trying to grow the company, and definitely there will be more changes into it.
38 00:04:10.520 ⇒ 00:04:11.110 Ashwini Sharma: Sure.
39 00:04:12.010 ⇒ 00:04:25.559 Rico Rejoso: And who we serve is VIP C-suite executives, director heads, and founders. We go directly to them, and the industries that we’ve been serving so far are e-com, CPG,
40 00:04:25.810 ⇒ 00:04:27.699 Rico Rejoso: Saas and beekeeping.
41 00:04:28.690 ⇒ 00:04:29.620 Ashwini Sharma: Got it, dude.
42 00:04:30.250 ⇒ 00:04:36.440 Rico Rejoso: Okay, so here are some of the executions that we have. So, probably in the Monday meeting.
43 00:04:36.910 ⇒ 00:04:47.610 Rico Rejoso: We’ll discuss more of this one, like the OKRs, AORs, appreciate you turning your camera on and writing first, make sure that everything is documented, I think.
44 00:04:47.780 ⇒ 00:04:55.799 Rico Rejoso: In the field or industry that you’ve been working on, you know that as well, that everything should be documented before executing things like that, right?
45 00:04:55.930 ⇒ 00:04:59.460 Rico Rejoso: So we have the proper documentation as to what these steps take.
46 00:04:59.910 ⇒ 00:05:06.129 Rico Rejoso: Here at Brainforge, we encourage everyone to fail fast, because that we can test.
47 00:05:06.250 ⇒ 00:05:13.840 Rico Rejoso: We can adopt, we can learn, and, you know, make real progress as well. Failing is not considered as something that
48 00:05:14.010 ⇒ 00:05:23.350 Rico Rejoso: I mean, it’s inevitable, right? So, I want to make sure that we… if we fail, fail fast, and learn from it, and move on from it.
49 00:05:23.640 ⇒ 00:05:31.530 Rico Rejoso: And we don’t really blame anyone that made mistakes. People are pointing to it, so just focus on learning, not blaming.
50 00:05:31.880 ⇒ 00:05:37.909 Rico Rejoso: And as you know, we are founded in different country… I mean, team members are founded in different countries from…
51 00:05:38.290 ⇒ 00:05:40.350 Rico Rejoso: I think some of the countries that we have
52 00:05:40.840 ⇒ 00:05:45.499 Rico Rejoso: previous and current team members are in Argentina, some parts in Europe.
53 00:05:45.600 ⇒ 00:05:54.520 Rico Rejoso: U.S, California, Ohio, Texas, Austin, as you know, Philippines, Pakistan, Ilya.
54 00:05:55.090 ⇒ 00:05:57.090 Rico Rejoso: What else? Malda?
55 00:05:57.620 ⇒ 00:05:58.150 Ashwini Sharma: Yep.
56 00:05:58.590 ⇒ 00:06:00.619 Rico Rejoso: And we have a few in Hong Kong as well.
57 00:06:00.750 ⇒ 00:06:15.279 Rico Rejoso: So, we are a remote or async, and I believe you’ve been working, as, in the remote or async, as a remote or async individual as well before, so probably, you know, how it works when it comes to that, right?
58 00:06:15.500 ⇒ 00:06:16.360 Ashwini Sharma: Right.
59 00:06:16.810 ⇒ 00:06:25.970 Rico Rejoso: Right, so some of the tools that we… that we’ve been using in general, that I have onboarded you with is Snap, Notion, Clockify, Linear.
60 00:06:26.080 ⇒ 00:06:27.520 Ashwini Sharma: 1Password.
61 00:06:27.590 ⇒ 00:06:28.580 Rico Rejoso: ramp.
62 00:06:28.910 ⇒ 00:06:36.470 Rico Rejoso: GPT… we have the BrainForge platform, if you haven’t tested, or if you haven’t looked at it yet.
63 00:06:36.720 ⇒ 00:06:38.190 Rico Rejoso: Editing and zebra.
64 00:06:38.400 ⇒ 00:06:39.500 Rico Rejoso: So we don’t…
65 00:06:39.580 ⇒ 00:06:51.339 Rico Rejoso: usually use Google tools such as Docs, PowerPoint, but in spreadsheet, we do use it sometimes as it requires them, especially if you’re presenting to clients.
66 00:06:51.340 ⇒ 00:07:00.180 Rico Rejoso: But yeah, it’s not that we’re not using it, it’s just that we most… I mean, we utilize Notion as much as possible and have everything documented there.
67 00:07:00.180 ⇒ 00:07:09.349 Rico Rejoso: So, if and ever, we can take a look at it as well. And we also have it on our VINFORGE platform. By the way, have you taken a look at it already?
68 00:07:09.540 ⇒ 00:07:12.249 Ashwini Sharma: No, I haven’t seen the platform.
69 00:07:13.050 ⇒ 00:07:16.400 Rico Rejoso: Sure, I’ll give you the sign-in tip, maybe you can take a look at it after listening, right?
70 00:07:16.500 ⇒ 00:07:17.680 Ashwini Sharma: Sure, yeah.
71 00:07:18.400 ⇒ 00:07:21.890 Rico Rejoso: Okay, and we’ll deep dive into it later on.
72 00:07:22.750 ⇒ 00:07:32.679 Rico Rejoso: Yep, just to explain, if you also read your contract, we are on a net 30 payment schedule, which means that the payment for an invoice is due 30 days after the end of the month.
73 00:07:32.870 ⇒ 00:07:40.789 Rico Rejoso: Okay, so an invoice will be sent to you through RAMP. If you have been invited to RAMP by the finance team or the finance department.
74 00:07:40.970 ⇒ 00:07:44.139 Rico Rejoso: You will receive that through RAMP and
75 00:07:45.020 ⇒ 00:07:52.800 Rico Rejoso: It’s on a net 30 game schedule. But if you have any questions, in regards to it, more details that you need to fill in with,
76 00:07:53.070 ⇒ 00:07:57.279 Rico Rejoso: You can send an email to finance at brainforge.ai.
77 00:07:57.500 ⇒ 00:07:58.319 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, yeah.
78 00:07:58.320 ⇒ 00:08:16.879 Rico Rejoso: So I take out of that one. Any finance-related questions, the only place department that you can contact to is the finance department, so they’ll reply to you, once they’re available, but yeah, it’s hard to say that anyone from the team can give you instructions when it comes to finance-related stuff, so just go straight to that.
79 00:08:17.300 ⇒ 00:08:17.920 Ashwini Sharma: Chill.
80 00:08:18.850 ⇒ 00:08:23.399 Rico Rejoso: Alrighty. And for time tracking, we’ve been utilizing Dockify.
81 00:08:23.990 ⇒ 00:08:27.630 Rico Rejoso: Were you able to use Clockify already?
82 00:08:27.900 ⇒ 00:08:32.500 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, I am able to use… I’m kind of putting my entry in that timesheet.
83 00:08:32.830 ⇒ 00:08:38.629 Rico Rejoso: Okay, are you, were you able to, you know, be familiarized in using Clockify, or is there anything that you…
84 00:08:38.760 ⇒ 00:08:40.830 Rico Rejoso: Have questions when it comes to username.
85 00:08:41.270 ⇒ 00:08:50.740 Ashwini Sharma: Just one quick question is, like, you know, that time tracker, do you use that too, or is it just the timesheet that I need to fill?
86 00:08:51.430 ⇒ 00:09:09.419 Rico Rejoso: Timesheet, yeah, we don’t necessarily do the time tracker stuff, we’re, you know, we’re not really strict when it comes to that. But if you feel like you’re, you know, you know, in a setting that you have to work straight hours and you can really track your time, you have an option to use a time tracker.
87 00:09:09.920 ⇒ 00:09:11.680 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, got it.
88 00:09:11.680 ⇒ 00:09:13.930 Rico Rejoso: how Wish has been utilizing it as well, I think.
89 00:09:14.220 ⇒ 00:09:14.890 Ashwini Sharma: Okay.
90 00:09:15.440 ⇒ 00:09:27.669 Rico Rejoso: you know, sometimes we, you know, kind of dig deep when it comes to working. You don’t notice the time… the time you started and stuff, so some of the team members use time tracker to make sure before they start working, they turn it on.
91 00:09:28.160 ⇒ 00:09:29.200 Rico Rejoso: it off after.
92 00:09:29.350 ⇒ 00:09:30.100 Ashwini Sharma: Okay.
93 00:09:31.980 ⇒ 00:09:41.019 Rico Rejoso: Now, yeah, there’s a quick tip in using Clockify. You can link your Google Calendar to it, so if and ever that you have a meeting, so you don’t have to, you know.
94 00:09:41.140 ⇒ 00:09:52.579 Rico Rejoso: jot it down. Each meeting that you will be attending, because you want to make sure that if you’re going to stand-ups, if you’re going to client meetings, if you’ve been invited to, you know, a company-wide meeting.
95 00:09:52.580 ⇒ 00:10:07.360 Rico Rejoso: want to make sure that you can also put it in Clockify directly. That’s just by linking your Google Calendar, and you can auto-import events. That is for faster, you know, faster input, and you can review and adjust it
96 00:10:07.550 ⇒ 00:10:12.080 Rico Rejoso: Daily, or… As you see needed.
97 00:10:12.080 ⇒ 00:10:12.880 Ashwini Sharma: Got it, yeah.
98 00:10:12.880 ⇒ 00:10:20.540 Rico Rejoso: Okay? So yeah, you have the option to use timesheet, time tracker, or directly link your calendar to it.
99 00:10:20.890 ⇒ 00:10:29.289 Rico Rejoso: And one quick reminder, also, if you can, because I know you’re being… you’re just allotting 20 hours a week at Brainforge, right?
100 00:10:29.290 ⇒ 00:10:30.360 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, yeah.
101 00:10:30.580 ⇒ 00:10:41.300 Rico Rejoso: And want to make sure… and you also provided me the time that you’ve allotted, like, you have 8 to 5 Eastern time to work for Brainforge, which you’re allotting
102 00:10:41.680 ⇒ 00:10:48.119 Rico Rejoso: a total of 20 hours each week. If you can mark the time that you’re not available on the calendar so we know
103 00:10:48.750 ⇒ 00:10:55.539 Rico Rejoso: We are, I mean, we are aware to not book any meetings on that particular time, especially if you’re not available.
104 00:10:55.580 ⇒ 00:11:04.130 Ashwini Sharma: Sure, sure. Yeah, I’ll do that, because, yeah, 20 hours a week converts to roughly 4 hours every day, right?
105 00:11:04.340 ⇒ 00:11:05.280 Ashwini Sharma: So, I’ll…
106 00:11:05.280 ⇒ 00:11:05.880 Rico Rejoso: Saturday.
107 00:11:05.880 ⇒ 00:11:12.110 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, so I’ll make sure that I mark those 4 hours when I’m available, and I’ll stick to it.
108 00:11:12.570 ⇒ 00:11:17.649 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, definitely, that will help. But if in case, like, for example, with,
109 00:11:18.080 ⇒ 00:11:32.220 Rico Rejoso: OTAM is aware that you’ve been, you know, spending more hours since you’re trying to focus on a particular project, on a client, like for Keaton, for any more client, and you have the go signal to, you know, go over
110 00:11:33.040 ⇒ 00:11:42.829 Rico Rejoso: 20 hours per week, and you also accepted that. We can revise the contract after, and you can just, you know, put in your hours as you see needed, okay?
111 00:11:42.830 ⇒ 00:11:43.710 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, sure.
112 00:11:43.710 ⇒ 00:11:48.040 Rico Rejoso: There are some instances, you just wanna, you know, I would just wanna let you know, there are instances where
113 00:11:48.290 ⇒ 00:12:00.040 Rico Rejoso: you are requested to work on this beyond your 20-hour work week, so if and ever you can work on it, yeah, but just letting them know that you will also log in on Cockify, right?
114 00:12:00.220 ⇒ 00:12:01.459 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, sure, yeah.
115 00:12:01.460 ⇒ 00:12:05.559 Rico Rejoso: You want to make sure you’re getting paid in every hour that you’re spending working for brain fudge.
116 00:12:06.100 ⇒ 00:12:07.590 Ashwini Sharma: Okay. As much as possible.
117 00:12:07.760 ⇒ 00:12:15.860 Rico Rejoso: Yep, and just a few reminders as well, make sure you record your hours on a daily,
118 00:12:15.990 ⇒ 00:12:18.739 Rico Rejoso: I mean, daily and accurately.
119 00:12:18.830 ⇒ 00:12:28.760 Rico Rejoso: We don’t usually check it daily, I’ll be honest, because I’m the one who’s checking it, but as much as you can, try to put it… put in your hours daily.
120 00:12:28.830 ⇒ 00:12:39.170 Rico Rejoso: We check it every Wednesday and Friday. If you notice that you’re not putting your hours, there’s a tendency that, you know, finance or the payment will… payout may be delayed.
121 00:12:39.170 ⇒ 00:12:51.560 Rico Rejoso: Because finance are recording it every end of week. So we appreciate you doing it on a daily manner, if possible. If not, make sure that before end of week, you have everything locked.
122 00:12:51.930 ⇒ 00:12:53.260 Rico Rejoso: Thursday, Friday.
123 00:12:53.630 ⇒ 00:13:04.759 Ashwini Sharma: Sure, can you check my yesterday’s entry and see if things are correct, the project and, you know, whatever the project that I’ve selected? If it is wrong, just let me know, I’ll fix it.
124 00:13:05.220 ⇒ 00:13:09.300 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, sure, let me… what are the clients that you’ve been working on so far?
125 00:13:09.440 ⇒ 00:13:12.590 Ashwini Sharma: So, it’s only Eden right now, Eden and Standard.
126 00:13:12.830 ⇒ 00:13:14.690 Ashwini Sharma: Meetings, right? That’s all.
127 00:13:15.510 ⇒ 00:13:18.619 Rico Rejoso: Okay, let me first check if you are…
128 00:13:19.160 ⇒ 00:13:23.270 Rico Rejoso: on the Eden project, because all are in public or private, I don’t know.
129 00:13:23.440 ⇒ 00:13:24.399 Rico Rejoso: Let me see…
130 00:13:27.990 ⇒ 00:13:37.159 Rico Rejoso: Also, you don’t… I mean, you don’t have access to all projects unless you’ve informed your project manager, or maybe me.
131 00:13:37.810 ⇒ 00:13:42.549 Rico Rejoso: Okay, because we… I mean, one of our project managers are also focusing on data stuff.
132 00:13:42.690 ⇒ 00:13:46.389 Rico Rejoso: So if whenever she’s not available, that’s Amber.
133 00:13:46.550 ⇒ 00:13:57.819 Rico Rejoso: If she’s not available, just directing me. Let me know that, hey, Rico, I’m working. Utam told me to work on Honey Stinger, or for Urban Stamps. I’m not on that project yet at Clockify, can you add me to it?
134 00:13:57.820 ⇒ 00:13:59.899 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, got it.
135 00:13:59.970 ⇒ 00:14:02.549 Rico Rejoso: Right now, I added you to Eden.
136 00:14:03.870 ⇒ 00:14:08.490 Rico Rejoso: Just to make sure. Any more clients that you’ve been working on so far, or just Ian for now?
137 00:14:08.490 ⇒ 00:14:13.419 Ashwini Sharma: No, it’s… it’s only Eden. It’s just been 2 days, right? So, yeah, it’s only Eden.
138 00:14:14.120 ⇒ 00:14:15.890 Rico Rejoso: Okay, let me check.
139 00:14:18.980 ⇒ 00:14:21.930 Rico Rejoso: 4 hours recorded to eat and help.
140 00:14:22.200 ⇒ 00:14:25.069 Rico Rejoso: Got it, Jeff. I saw that. It’s here.
141 00:14:25.960 ⇒ 00:14:27.440 Rico Rejoso: Thank you for that.
142 00:14:27.850 ⇒ 00:14:32.949 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, moving forward, just, you know, let me know if ever you’ve been assigned to a new client.
143 00:14:33.370 ⇒ 00:14:35.749 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, sure, I’ll definitely do that.
144 00:14:35.970 ⇒ 00:14:43.340 Rico Rejoso: I’m sorry right now, I don’t keep track of everyone or what they’re working on, so if you can let me know, that’d be appreciated.
145 00:14:43.570 ⇒ 00:14:44.200 Ashwini Sharma: Show.
146 00:14:45.470 ⇒ 00:14:59.780 Rico Rejoso: And also, quickly, also, if you can, on LinkedIn, follow Brainforge AI on LinkedIn, keep your, keep the company info updated, and if and ever, we can provide you a LinkedIn header, image from the marketing team, and
147 00:15:00.080 ⇒ 00:15:17.710 Rico Rejoso: if you have any requests, like, designs that you want to put into LinkedIn, or reflect through Brainforge, or tagging Brainforge, or, you know, posters and everything, backgrounds, just let us know. We can provide you with all the access. Either you let me know, or you let the marketing know.
148 00:15:17.900 ⇒ 00:15:23.039 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, so I’ll add you to the marketing team group chat as well, so if you need anything from them…
149 00:15:23.040 ⇒ 00:15:24.899 Rico Rejoso: You can directly message them on Salah.
150 00:15:25.330 ⇒ 00:15:26.360 Ashwini Sharma: Definitely.
151 00:15:26.770 ⇒ 00:15:27.750 Rico Rejoso: Thank you.
152 00:15:27.850 ⇒ 00:15:36.290 Rico Rejoso: And… Yeah, we have a bi-weekly Friday team meetings, so… It’s just,
153 00:15:36.770 ⇒ 00:15:50.650 Rico Rejoso: a get-together for all team members across different countries, different time zones. We meet every two weeks on Friday. Make sure to put your camera on. The meeting structure, just simply, there would be an assigned host.
154 00:15:50.710 ⇒ 00:16:00.520 Rico Rejoso: So it’s random, every two weeks, new team member that will be assigned to host, the meeting, and they’ll just do a quick
155 00:16:00.590 ⇒ 00:16:03.150 Rico Rejoso: icebreaker?
156 00:16:03.660 ⇒ 00:16:12.310 Rico Rejoso: quick lab share, which could be personal, or we can share a few works that you’ve done in the past that you wanted to share to the team that you think would be, you know.
157 00:16:13.060 ⇒ 00:16:26.840 Rico Rejoso: a quick step for learning development for everyone. Then after that one, it’s just a quick executive discussion of what’s going on with Brainforge. I want to make sure that everyone is updated with the growth and process of the company.
158 00:16:27.370 ⇒ 00:16:38.760 Rico Rejoso: Okay, so we do quick updates or department updates, some demos from the AI and data team, and a quick shout-out to everyone who’s been helping each team members and departments on their work.
159 00:16:39.220 ⇒ 00:16:40.370 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, yep.
160 00:16:40.860 ⇒ 00:16:54.399 Rico Rejoso: So, all that kind of meeting, individually, but I mean, every meeting that you have on Zoom is recorded on the platform, so you could re-watch it, you can get a transcript, or there’s an AI system. I’ll show you in a while.
161 00:16:54.600 ⇒ 00:16:55.230 Ashwini Sharma: Sure.
162 00:16:55.510 ⇒ 00:16:58.860 Rico Rejoso: Right, so again, yeah, Notion, if you have access.
163 00:16:59.100 ⇒ 00:16:59.680 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah.
164 00:16:59.680 ⇒ 00:17:05.829 Rico Rejoso: check if you can… if you have access, check GPD, I’ve given you access to it. Yeah. What else? Slack?
165 00:17:07.410 ⇒ 00:17:11.310 Rico Rejoso: linear… You do have access to linear algorithm.
166 00:17:11.319 ⇒ 00:17:12.419 Ashwini Sharma: Yes, I do.
167 00:17:12.710 ⇒ 00:17:21.879 Rico Rejoso: Okay, and before we move on, is linear confusing? How is linear? Or have you used it before? I think it’s the same as Jira.
168 00:17:22.089 ⇒ 00:17:28.779 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, I’ve not used linear before, but I mean, I’m kind of… I mean, it’s the same, right? It’s just a task tracking.
169 00:17:29.049 ⇒ 00:17:30.979 Ashwini Sharma: Kind of tools, so, yeah.
170 00:17:32.419 ⇒ 00:17:35.269 Ashwini Sharma: No worries. I can get used to it, yeah, not an issue.
171 00:17:35.800 ⇒ 00:17:50.869 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, so as you notice, every… during our stand-ups, we utilize using linear to track the tasks that you’ve been assigned to. I wish probably we’ll be handing off some of the tasks in Eden to you, so you probably have to provide updates on linear, so once you go to linear…
172 00:17:51.160 ⇒ 00:17:54.510 Rico Rejoso: Let me take a quick… Let me just pull out Linear real quick.
173 00:17:54.910 ⇒ 00:17:57.619 Rico Rejoso: Probably it’s best to me to just show you how…
174 00:17:58.150 ⇒ 00:18:05.220 Rico Rejoso: Thanks, Rick. So this is the AI team. So we have two displays here. This is the list view and board view.
175 00:18:06.240 ⇒ 00:18:11.440 Rico Rejoso: So, it’s just making sure that if you have a fast dog, for example, Mustafa here.
176 00:18:11.750 ⇒ 00:18:27.889 Rico Rejoso: with the description task and everything, the ticket, make sure that you provide an update by leaving a comment into it, and moving it from client tribute to projects and everything, just updating the status as much as possible, so everyone can also take a look at the progress on the tickets or tasks that you’ve been working on.
177 00:18:28.380 ⇒ 00:18:28.960 Ashwini Sharma: Sure.
178 00:18:29.360 ⇒ 00:18:29.960 Rico Rejoso: Okay.
179 00:18:30.170 ⇒ 00:18:37.049 Rico Rejoso: So, any questions in regard to it, let me know. I can definitely jump on a meeting with you and try to guide you as much as possible, but…
180 00:18:38.380 ⇒ 00:18:41.429 Rico Rejoso: You guys are all smart enough to know that, I believe.
181 00:18:42.170 ⇒ 00:18:46.290 Rico Rejoso: You guys were all… were the one teaching me, not the other way.
182 00:18:46.660 ⇒ 00:18:47.729 Rico Rejoso: Alright, so what?
183 00:18:47.730 ⇒ 00:18:48.370 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah.
184 00:18:48.980 ⇒ 00:19:07.710 Rico Rejoso: Brain Forge platform in Zoom, and I’m not sure if I’ve added you to Zoom, or if you need Zoom, just let me know, because I do not provide access to Zoom unless requested, or if you’re on a project manager position. So if you need Zoom, like, for if you’re doing client works and everything, just let me know. I can definitely give you access to it, okay?
185 00:19:07.710 ⇒ 00:19:08.390 Ashwini Sharma: Sure.
186 00:19:08.810 ⇒ 00:19:17.140 Rico Rejoso: And the platform, I’ll forward this link to you, so this is the example of the platform. It’s just basically a recording of all assets.
187 00:19:17.260 ⇒ 00:19:30.880 Rico Rejoso: recordings, files that we have, so we have a few automation tools here. We have here the GPT tool, wherein, if and ever you need to look for a meeting, you can also just type it in, or if you can filter it by day.
188 00:19:31.040 ⇒ 00:19:34.310 Rico Rejoso: Like, for them to, like, yeah, do they do it?
189 00:19:34.490 ⇒ 00:19:41.350 Rico Rejoso: Everything’s here. You can also have the GPT create a list of action items for the meeting, or just simply get the transcript from them.
190 00:19:42.530 ⇒ 00:19:43.770 Ashwini Sharma: Alright, cool.
191 00:19:43.770 ⇒ 00:19:51.370 Rico Rejoso: Okay, and other tools, if in case it’s, you know, I’m just gonna quickly give you a quick intro of what platform offers.
192 00:19:51.380 ⇒ 00:19:55.659 Ashwini Sharma: It helped us create linear tickets, assistant, case study assistant.
193 00:19:55.700 ⇒ 00:20:14.709 Rico Rejoso: especially you’re an engineer at Brainforged, some, we have the marketing team do a few case studies of some successful milestone or work or project, so that if that happens, you’ll be using the case study assistant once they assign a case study for you, and do the interview here.
194 00:20:15.940 ⇒ 00:20:16.940 Ashwini Sharma: Okay.
195 00:20:17.430 ⇒ 00:20:29.040 Rico Rejoso: Just so, just so, you know, you can do the interview here, go to interview, and the AI voice will do the interview, and you just have to provide them with the answer, you know, background of the project that you’ve worked on before.
196 00:20:30.390 ⇒ 00:20:31.439 Ashwini Sharma: Got it, yeah.
197 00:20:31.710 ⇒ 00:20:35.180 Rico Rejoso: Okay, so I’m gonna give you the link for that later on.
198 00:20:35.500 ⇒ 00:20:36.580 Rico Rejoso: What else?
199 00:20:37.670 ⇒ 00:20:38.340 Rico Rejoso: Yep.
200 00:20:38.490 ⇒ 00:20:57.009 Rico Rejoso: checkpoints, make sure you have your, you check your access for all the tools that is given to you, and if there are any tools that you need which you don’t have access to it yet, just let me know. I probably have all access to all tools, but if in case I don’t, I can definitely direct you to the person
201 00:20:57.250 ⇒ 00:21:00.230 Rico Rejoso: you can speak through when it comes to getting those access, okay?
202 00:21:00.680 ⇒ 00:21:01.420 Ashwini Sharma: All right.
203 00:21:01.710 ⇒ 00:21:05.720 Rico Rejoso: Okay, but as much as possible, go to me first, okay? Sure.
204 00:21:06.140 ⇒ 00:21:10.920 Rico Rejoso: I want to make sure that I have access to it before, you know, giving permission to you.
205 00:21:11.200 ⇒ 00:21:20.169 Rico Rejoso: So, for department-specific tools, we’ll be provisioned post-onboarding, such as the GPT cursor, or if you need snowflakes moving forward, Omni.
206 00:21:20.700 ⇒ 00:21:22.880 Rico Rejoso: I’m… What’s the other one?
