Loved Culture, Intimidated By Smarts
Loved Culture, Intimidated By Smarts
I love the culture and freedom not just in this industry, but in this company. The workday flies by, and I often stay and work late because I love it so much.
Everyone is so smart it can be intimidating, and there are a ton of acronyms.
Be more willing to look outside the box in terms of hiring practices. There are many valuable candidates that have great problem-solving and critical-thinking skills, but their tech skills need to be strengthened, and they aren't taken seriously by some.
