You are number 1 in the categories I defined in my original post.
Risk averse people are people who cannot move out of their language, area of expertise etc.
- analog31 9y agoI hate to think about it, but answering questions about things like risk aversion may be akin to the coding interview, where they could be studied and memorized. The flip side is that with business experience, the older candidate could make an educated guess about how likely it actually is, that they will have to work outside of their existing skill set. So, objectively assessing the risk is sometimes an alternative to simply avoiding it without knowing if the risk is real.
