How to get hired at Google

First three characteristics mentioned:

. . . analytical reasoning. Google is a data-driven, analytic company. When an issue arises or a decision needs to be made, we start with data. That means we can talk about what we know, instead of what we think we know.

. . . communication skills. Marshalling and understanding the available evidence isn't useful unless you can effectively communicate your conclusions.

. . . a willingness to experiment. Non-routine problems call for non-routine solutions and there is no formula for success. A well-designed experiment calls for a range of treatments, explicit control groups, and careful post-treatment analysis. Sometimes an experiment kills off a pet theory, so you need a willingness to accept the evidence even if you don't like it.

I'd also recommend:

Moral flexibility toward working with totalitarian governments to censor what their citizens can learn, and a willingness to betray those who rely on your services to same said totaliarian governments.
