Paul Budnitz, founder of Kidrobot, talks about what he looks for in a new hire:
Q: Is there a particular "tell" that signals a good or bad fit?
A: Some people have no common sense--you can send them out to buy a tube of toothpaste and they'll make a mess out of it. Others you can just say, "our t-shirts aren't working, the colors are too dull," and they'll come back with a dozen options, half of which are useful.Near as I can figure common sense is something that you either have, or don't. I don't have the experience of people developing common sense over time.
