I love this article I read recently about what Google looks for in their hiring process. Here is a link: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/23/opinion/sunday/friedman-how-to-get-a-job-at-google.html
There are 5 qualities they are trying to measure:
- Technical skill.
- Learning ability.
- Emergent leadership.
- Humility.
- Ownership.
Those five things.
This aligns with the idea I knew to be true in my head but couldn’t form words around.
This is who I want to be. And I also need to be searching out projects and opportunities that value those five traits, because that’s who I want to be and that’s how I want my value to be measured.
