Carmen Luz Morales on W-UP’s Mission
What is your role at W-UP, and how would you describe your responsibilities within the company?
“I’m the General Manager of W-UP, and my goal—just like the company’s—is to help people and businesses develop their skills, whether during hiring or career transition processes. Above all, we aim to help people turn information that may initially seem negative into an advantage.”
Carmen explains that W-UP’s operations are divided into two key business areas:
- Leadership and talent development
- Tools and solutions for job searching and employability
“These two pillars are what allow us to deliver the value and service our clients need.”
W-UP’s Current Objective
What is W-UP’s main goal today?
“W-UP exists to ensure people are prepared for new challenges, contributing to the growth of individuals, companies, countries, and the world.”
“How do we achieve this? We develop human potential, introduce new tools, and provide fresh perspectives. We support both individuals and businesses in acquiring the skills needed to succeed in today’s workforce.”
Carmen also highlighted the impact W-UP has had on professionals like Adriana Alvarez, Customer Quality Specialist at Nissan Motor Corporation, who shared:
“Daring to explore new opportunities was the greatest invitation I received through W-UP.”
And this is only one example of the many transformative experiences W-UP creates for its clients and partners.
Measuring Success in the Partnership with Interfell
From your perspective, Carmen, what metrics are most important in this partnership with Interfell?
“One of the most important improvements has been in the way we hire talent.”
She emphasized that professionals such as frontend, backend, and full-stack developers—as well as UX specialists—require flexibility and freedom to perform at their best.
“Interfell has been an outstanding intermediary, connecting our needs with the right professionals.”
Carmen also highlighted the speed and efficiency achieved through the partnership:
“Thanks to this collaboration, we can quickly meet company requirements—sometimes even faster than clients expect. Together, we’ve built a strong vision for the projects we wanted to develop.”
Why W-UP Chose Interfell?
What do you believe was fundamental in building this partnership with Interfell?
“They have an excellent ability to understand and suggest exactly what clients need. That has been extremely valuable for us.”
She also pointed out Interfell’s strong IT talent network:
“Their database includes professionals from many different IT disciplines, which is highly attractive. It gives us access not only to strong technical skills, but also to people who are a great cultural fit for our company.”
Carmen shared that W-UP’s ambitions go far beyond local markets:
“We want to expand internationally and deliver our services globally—that’s our ambition. We are currently developing the platform that will allow us to achieve that, with the support of the talent Interfell provides.”
Key Results of the Partnership
In just a few words, what achievement would you highlight from this collaboration?
“The ability to respond responsibly and efficiently to unexpected situations is something worth emphasizing.”
Carmen recalled a particularly important moment:
“Some time ago, one of our developers left the company. In just one week, we were able to hire another developer—not only with similar technical skills, but with an even stronger cultural fit.”
“That allowed us to avoid losing valuable time and continue moving toward our goals without interruption.”
Would You Recommend Interfell?
When asked whether she would recommend Interfell to her professional network, Carmen’s answer was immediate:
“Absolutely. I would encourage anyone to take the time to speak with someone from Interfell because the quality of service and the solutions they provide are truly impressive.”
She also emphasized the importance of global talent acquisition:
“Today, talent is not limited to our immediate geographic area or national borders. We need to go out and find it, and Interfell is an excellent partner for discovering highly skilled specialists.”
For W-UP, the partnership has become a strategic advantage:
“For us, having access to Interfell’s expertise has been an incredible asset. They are highly responsible throughout every process and consistently deliver within the expected timelines, which is extremely valuable.”
A Final Recommendation
To close the interview, Carmen shared a personal recommendation for readers:
“Although he’s not an influencer, he has been a major inspiration for me because his work is closely related to leadership development. I would recommend following Dr. Mario Alonso Puig.”
Dr. Mario Alonso Puig is a physician who has dedicated much of his life to researching how people can unlock their full potential, especially during times of uncertainty, challenge, and change.
