They're figuring out how to make themselves 10x more useful to the company.

And they just learn and they stay on the bleeding edge.

That is the future employee.

I'm a big fan of hiring people that could be entrepreneurs because they research and they stay up to date and they know what's going on.

They know Claude Cowork and Claude Code and they know that chat image 2.0 dropped last week and they're already using it.

Like they know all this stuff and they could be entrepreneurs if they want it to be.

But for whatever season of life that they're in right now, they don't want to be an entrepreneur.

But that's fine.

But they still bring that entrepreneur mindset to the company.

Those are the people that I love to hire.

And it's not just me that feels this way.

I did a live podcast with the CTO of Dropbox and the CMO of Carta last week in Miami.

And the CMO of Carta was saying how all the roles that they're hiring for, say, for example, there's a marketing role they're hiring for.

They're hiring for a copywriter or a graphic designer.

That's how they used to title their roles.

The job postings that they're putting out now, they're calling them marketing engineers.

So marketers that understand marketing, but not engineers in like a computer science degree engineer context in a I understand how to code, develop, design right with AI.

And the title is now marketing engineer.

And those are the people who they're hiring going forward.

So they don't hire anybody who doesn't understand how to use AI.
