Girl, 7, Gets Letter From Google CEO
Sherley Boursiquot,International Business Times 11 hours ago
A 7-year-old girl recently sent Sundar Pichai a letter inquiring
about a job and ended up receiving the sweetest letter from the Google
CEO. While it's safe to say she did not receive a formal job offer, she
may now have an in at the company . . . once she's finished with school,
of course. In her initial letter, Chloe spoke about her love of
technology, computers, and robots before asking about Google's job
listings. In his response, Sundar wrote, "I'm glad that you like
computers and robots, and hope that you will continue to learn about
technology. I think if you keep working hard and following your dreams,
you can accomplish anything you set your mind to — from working at
Google to swimming in the Olympics,” she wrote.
"My dad said I can sit on bean bags and go down
slides and ride go-karts in a job in Google," she continued before
adding her love for tablets and robots. "My dad told me to give you an
application to get a job in Google. I don't really know what one of them
is but he said a letter will do for now."
Bridgewater also said she has done well in school and gets good grades.
“My dad gave me a game where I have to move a robot up and down squares, he said it will be good for me to learn about computers,” she wrote.
"Thank you for reading my letter. I have only ever sent one other and that was to Father Christmas. Good bye,” she ended the letter.
Pichai hasn’t offered Bridgewater a job, but he said he hopes she continues to pursue her dreams.

“Can’t thank such a busy person enough to take time out to make a little girl’s dream become one step closer, although not sure she’s fully aware that it’ll take more than riding go karts and sleeping in pods to make it with Google!” he wrote on LinkedIn.
