If a person does not have any prior work experience, what do you look at to determine if you would like them to work for your company?

Let's say this person hasn't volunteered, hasn't worked, hasn't had an internship.. They are newly graduated college students with an under-grad degree. What makes you hire these people?(If you would hire them) #career #work #hire

As an aspiring entrepreneur, how important is learning to code and what are some of the best websites, programs, or online schools for learning the skill?

I am interested in entrepreneurship but time and time again I put an idea aside because I dont know how to code, and have not yet fleshed out my idea enough to begin a seed round for funding for a coder. #computer-software #programming #coding #program-development

How realistic should I be when accomplishing career goals

I would imagine that after college being thrown in a crazy hectic world it can be hard to adjust what you want to do with what you are able to do. With a lot of competition and people having better qualification than you. How hopeful? Should you be in maintaining a career goal ? #career #life #goal
