Road to Google
All roads lead to somewhere, right? But can you imagine a road in Afghanistan or a high security post assignment at an overseas embassy leading to jobs at Google? Well, they did and two veterans are here to tell you the story of how they made it happen and why!
I mean imagine, Yaser Chow a veteran of the marine corp serving at a high security post for an overseas embassy and Rahul Harpalani a former infantryman leading squadrons through battle in Afghanistan--both earning roles in new disciplines at Google. Their stories reveal their own discovery of passions founded in their respective service to our country and ignited upon leaving the service.
Rahul talks about how he now uses a simple three word phrase the Army taught him: Calmness, Teamwork and Decisiveness in his work leading a product team at Google and surprisingly, the parallels to being a deployed field leader in the Army.
Yaser describes how learning and understanding financial fidelity was the key to his journey in extending his military training into a career at Google.
Together, their stories are inspiring for those looking to take what they have earned and learned in one part of their life and create a new path for themselves in the next!
