Our company sees itself as an ever learning organization where people need to grow.

We give courses in high schools, then give scholarships in the University (we're not in the US so it's no so expensive), then we recruit university students and graduates and train them for several months (free).

After all that process we hire the best.

We've found that "growing" our own human resources has been very effective. We also hire people with experience elsewhere so that we get some cross-pollination, but incorporating training in your corporate mindset makes for an ever improving organization.

We also have very very low attrition.

@aminmansuri This is taking what I advise my clients ("Don't waste your time chasing unicorns; invest in creating your own") to a whole other level. Great job.
