Looking at her interest in robots and technology her dad suggested Google, as it is known for its innovative work and amazing work place culture. Looking into the matter, Chloe deliberated and decided that she would love to work for Google as she can ‘sit on bean bags, go down slides and ride go karts’.
Surprisingly, Chloe got a response back from the ‘Google Boss’, Sundar Pichai himself, in which he encourages her ‘keep working harder and following your dreams’. As far as the job goes, she has gotten the heads up to apply again as soon as finishes her studies. Wow! what an amazing feat for Chloe.
