That basically means that I would be the link between our and our development team.<|im_end|> <|im_start|>user Sounds good, and so, why do you want to work with them?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant Well, as I said they're the industry leaders, they have a really great growth strategy, amazing development opportunities for employees, and it seems like they have strong corporate governance. They're all about helping companies grow and unleashing potential. I guess their core values and mission really resonated with me. Oh, and they offer six weeks'vacation, stock options and bonuses...
