Listen, don't judge me only on my coding ability or not. Judge me on my character and the wealth of knowledge and experience that I bring to the table spanning nearly 3 decades.

That's where you should base your decision on vice how well I code a short testing exercise.

Look not at how I perform a coding test you may give me but rather, why and the "way" I do it, how the actions I required to create new ideas, processes or products which when implemented lead to positive effective change.

While invention requires the creation of new ideas, processes or products, innovation moves one step further and requires implementation of the inventive act.

Innovation also implies a value system which seeks to derive a positive outcome from the inventive act, and finally, we don't look backwards for very long... We 'KEEP MOVING FORWARD', opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths...

That's where "I" come from, and that’s what I will bring to your company's table.
