Aspire to work for Apple? Tim Cook lists ‘must-have’ character traits for employees
Apple CEO Tim Cook has listed some ‘must-have’ character traits that the company's HR managers look for in a candidate, while conducting interviews for positions at the tech giant. Appearing on a BBC podcast hosted by British-Albanian singer Dua Lipa, Cook stressed on how ‘collaboration’ is among the foremost traits one must possess to get hired at the Cupertino, California-based firm. The business executive, 63, elaborated on what he meant by ‘one plus one equals three’: “The feeling of working with people who bring out the best in you is incredible; fundamentally, we all believe one plus one equals three, i.e., your idea plus my idea is better than the individual ideas on their own.” Degree or great coding skills? Cook, who joined Apple in March 1998 as a Senior Vice President, was then asked by Lipa whether people needed a degree or great coding skills to qualify to work at the iPhone maker.
