A majority of my value as an engineer stems from the fact that, in general, I can learn new things extremely rapidly. "Learning" is what I sell, and business is pretty decent.
- praptak 14y agoObviously the more learning is necessary (and on good jobs it is) the more it makes sense for a company to minimize its cost, hence going for fast learning folks. If a company hires for learning ability then it is a good prognostic for your learning on the job. Conversely if the job ad specifies software versions to the third dot and years of experience going longer than a technology exists then you might not learn too much there.
