>> I think that it's important to stay up on what's happening,
the channels that are trending, the platforms that are becoming larger.
You know, when I started Snapchat was not in existence and suddenly it's a major player
for the college age demographic, so, finding ways to expand
into new platforms that present themselves.
Having a steady presence on social when you're trying to represent yourself, you know,
LinkedIn bio, if you're trying to put yourself out there
for potential jobs or to be visible in that space.
But it's not just a matter of having a place there, it's a matter of keeping it up to date,
keeping people posted on what you're working on and making sure that when people go there
that it's an accurate and positive representation of your own brand.
Making, maintaining and maximizing relationships.
I think it's vitally important to make relationships while you're in school.
Reach out to people that you're following, reach out to people that you're interested in the type
of work that they do, tell them, "I'm a student, I'm coming to New York City or I'm coming
to whatever city that you work in and if you have 30 minutes to meet
with me I'd love to buy you coffee."
I never once have heard a no from that offer.
When we're exploring the type of people that we want to bring on for new jobs or the type
of team members that we want to join us in the efforts that we're going
with it's really important that the person is a hustler.
I look for somebody that's a hustler over anything else,
because I think I can teach you the skills that you need to know, but if you don't have
that drive, if you don't have that hustle, if you don't have that hunger to achieve greatness,
to achieve the things that are in our mission,
there's no world where I can really get you to be that.
You either have it or you don't.
And, so, I'm always looking for people that are hungry to learn, that ask questions,
that are going after what they want.
I like the people that take the imitative to reach out to me.
That over anything else is what we look for when we're looking for new team members to join us.
