Kickstarter CEO Everette Taylor says he doesn't always require job candidates to have prior experience — as long as they're committed to 'putting in the work.'

When you apply for a job, prior experience is always great to have. If you lack it, make a point to showcase your motivation to learn, says Everette Taylor.

His top priority for vetting job candidates now: whether they can genuinely perform the job they're seeking and, if they haven't done it before, whether they're "committed to learning" and "putting in the work," he says. It may sound "boring," he notes, but that doesn't make it less important. "For some people, at a certain point, they find it too threatening or too difficult to keep learning," Jassy said.
