Have you ever wondered what it takes to work for the world's first $3 trillion company,?Apple? What qualities and skills are needed to land a job at the iPhone maker? Well, recently,?CEO?Tim Cook?himself revealed that.
Apple CEO Tim Cook recently said that one of the key attributes for a professional to work for the tech giant was an ability to collaborate in order to execute any given task efficiently.
"Can they (employees) collaborate? Do they deeply believe that one plus one equals three?" CEO Cook said in an episode of the BBC podcast, hosted by Albanian singer-songwriter Dua Lipa, as per various media reports.
Further elaborating on his point of 1+1=3, Cook said that?Apple believed two employees should be capable of performing the tasks of three and described the feeling of working with professionals who bring out the best in others as "incredible."??
"The feeling of working with people who bring out the best in you is incredible; fundamentally, we all believe one plus one equals three, i.e., your idea plus my idea is better than the individual ideas on their own," Cook said.

Speaking about the hiring process, Cook said that while he?considered coding an essential skill to work at the firm, it was not an absolute necessity for a professional to join Apple. "Even though I consider coding to be a valuable skill for everyone, we have hired individuals who lack expertise in it or do not regularly utilise it in their daily work," he said.
Tim Cook was appointed Apple CEO in 2011 and said some of the?other skills needed by professionals to work at Apple included curiosity, creativity, and being a team player.
