When you've worked towards a goal in the past, what systems or tools have been helpful for you in accomplishing that goal? How could you adapt those same systems/tools to use while at Turing?
In the past networking has probably been the most important tool for accomplishing a specific goal I have. I actually don’t particularly like the term “networking” and I find it more useful to think of it as “friend-making”. I’m slightly concerned about entering a brand new industry during the middle of a pandemic as it will certainly be harder to make friends, but I hope I can adapt to that by swapping lunch dates with zoom calls. Turing seems to put a lot of emphasis on being engaged and appears to have an active alumni community which gives me hope.
I have strong interpersonal skills and am good at working with others. While I don’t have any issue working alone, I have a lot of experience working with teams
