Diversity, culture differences. It has benefits but it also comes with a few challenges. I work in the Bay Area and here people are coming from all over the world. We ultimately see different cultures and styles interacting with each other. Some people come from places where you have to be extremely competitive in order to get the basic things such as education and a job. Especially when you have a billion people in your own country and everyone is trying to work in CS. Or, if your parents are trying to make you the number one. Telling you that being number two is not an option for you.

I'd like to thanks everyone who participated in this thread. Very good stuff. It looks like I'm gonna have to highlight my personality to make sure it's inline with an engineering manager role. Since it's the only thing I have on top of a strong tech background and mentorship. Interestingly, I also have a little bit of product management experience. But really it looks like it will be about my ability to make all my interviewers feel like home.

cheers!

You are awesome my friend!

For my own use. In case I want to apply for a new job, I'll try to avoid white boarding stuff.
