He also has a Master of Science in Information Systems degree from City University and a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of South Dakota.

In this series, we focus on Anas Abbar's journey and motivational ideas in the hope to help some who are looking for guidance in everyday life. Each episode focuses on a different angle.

Here are the questions we asked:

  • CVs are important but we most look beyond the "ink on paper". I'm curious to know - what do you look for when hiring people? I ideally look for a balance of all three.
  • Is it experience or skills as indicated in CVs?
  • Is it their passion or interests?
  • Is it their attitudes? On whether they are culturally fit to the organization?
