For example: I really enjoyed working with 2 other teammates who were totally different from me, I found it exciting to start from scratch and create something that made our team visible to others, I love the challenge of taking something that didn’t work well and making it useful… When others heard of related opportunities, they remembered my name and they let me know who to follow up with.

I also feel that we pass on many great opportunities by not following up after something inspires us.
