>> So I thought a little bit about, lately about, we've done a little bit of hiring.
My company is small sort of on purpose because of the way we work and the type of clients we
like to work with, or the way we like to work with them rather.
But we have done a little bit of hiring and stuff like that so I've been thinking lately
about what makes jobs, like what makes someone successful in a job.
And there are a few sort of overall, overarching principles I think that are very simple but,
like when I was at Pomona I didn't really realize I think looking
out into like the job world.
You only see it from the perspective of looking out.
Like how can I get a job?
You have to remember to think about why someone wants to hire you and the reason they want
to hire you is to make something, generally if it's business it's
like somehow you being there makes that business more money.
And so you have to think about like how can you make less work for the people around you?
How you sort of take work off their plate and make them look good
for your boss or something like that.
And if you sort of like approach it like how can I make my boss look good today,
it will drive you in the right direction sort of,
like to continue to be successful in your job.
