Starting a new job can be stressful even in normal times. Joining a company without meeting your new colleagues in person or visiting the office makes the prospect even more daunting.

But, with two-thirds of companies set to be working for home for the foreseeable future, many of us will have to start new jobs remotely.

One person who knows what this is like is Arsenio Otero, the new COO of enterprise software firm Celonis.

He joined the $2.5 billion startup in the midst of the pandemic in May, to help grow it into the "next big IT company."

Otero has plenty of experience in the computing space, having previously served as COO of Salesforce's international business. Over the last 9 years he has helped Salesforce become a cloud computing giant with a market cap of $179 billion, growing revenue from the low hundred million dollars to multi-billion dollars.
