4 things Tim Cook looks for in Apple employees

During the University of Naples (Italy) Federico II's commencement, Apple CEO Tim Cook shared with graduates the four traits he looks for in employees, which he has gleaned from his 11 years of experience as CEO, according to an Oct. 2 report from CNBC.

The four traits:

  1. Ability to collaborate
  2. Creativity
  3. Curiosity
  4. Expertise

"It's been a very good formula for us," he told the graduates, adding that the ability to collaborate also combines the other three traits.

"We look for… the fundamental feeling that if I share my idea with you, that that idea will grow and get bigger and get better," Mr. Cook said. "And that [collaborative] process is how Apple creates products."
