2. “What's more important to you: Quantity or Quality?”
Your answer might be: it depends.
But until you do an experiment in your core areas, how do you actually know about the quality.
Go & take calculative risk & be the change.

3. Professional Relationship (Create your bridges)

4. Years of experience won’t make you qualified for a job.
Everyone looks for a genuine experience
People have different learning curves.
The only time we get a chance to be qualified is when we act.
Don't stay in your comfort zone. Look outside, world is moving faster.

“To be an expert in a field that changes from one day to the next is akin to placing your hand in a running river; you can trap a small bit of water for the moment, but once you lift your hand again the river rushes on”

Everyone talks about diversity.
Sometimes humans talk a good game, but don't follow through on their promises.
A diverse IT team is an asset that can help to drive innovation.

A diverse IT team is an asset that can help to drive innovation.
people of different backgrounds can have ideas for new products and services that would be of interest to a broad audience or even a niche sector.
Those are good business reasons for seeking a diverse workforce. However, there's an even better reason, and it's a human reason.
