Jonathan Rosenberg’s “Googley Advice to Students; Major in Learning” matters to me, education, and the world because it talks about the characteristics that are important at Google, but also at most companies. It matters to me because I need to know what things companies look for when they are hiring, so when I try and get jobs I can hopefully show them I am right for the job. It matters to education because schools need to teach things like “analytical reasoning, communication skills, willingness to experiment, team players, and passion and leadership” so their students are ready for “big time business”  jobs. It matters to the world because if kids exit their education and they don’t have these skills they will not be able to compete for careers in the real world. I think that schools should form their curriculum around what kids will need later in life.
