Gear up questions:

What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?

I think it helps me connect with people, and to be invested in their stories. It allows me to instinctively guess the best ways to help them, and trust that they'll be there for me.

How does empathy help you build better software?

Software is ultimately by humans, for humans, and is usually created to solve a problem. If you can step into the shoes of the people who will be using your software, understand how best to solve their problem, you will make a better tool.

Career Development Questions

What is your greatest strength and how do you know?

I think my greatest stregnth is probably my imagination - it allows me to fill in the blanks in areas where I don't do as well, it helps me create stories about concepts so that I can remember them, and it gives me insight into things I am trying to understand.

How do you work best?

I work best when I have a very specific project that's part of a larger group project. I need a defined role and specific expectations. I also work best in an office, with driven, motivated people.
