Interested in working involving
I'm looking to solve hard technical problems. That gives me a lot of joy. And I want to learn from my cohort about the different parts of the business they are accountable for.
Not interested in work involving
This is not a deal breaker. But pure management work is something I've never done and I'm apprehensive to take. I love getting my hands dirty.
