North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said his country is nearing its goal of “equilibrium” in military force with the United States, as the United Nations Security Council strongly condemned the North’s “highly provocative” ballistic missile launch over Japan on Friday. The North’s official Korean Central News Agency carried Kim’s comments on Saturday — a day after U.S. and South Korean militaries detected the missile launch from the North Korean capital of Pyongyang. It traveled 3,700 kilometers (2,300 miles) as it passed over the Japanese island of Hokkaido before landing in the northern Pacific Ocean. It was the country’s longest-ever test flight of a ballistic missile.
At a time when many job hunters in Silicon Valley see becoming older as a disadvantage, cloud security startup CipherCloud seems to be hiring all ages and backgrounds.
"We build a strong team and we hire people based on talent and a desire to contribute," chief executive and founder Pravin Kothani told Press:Here. "We hire people that believe in our mission statement of customer success, excellence, commitment and teamwork."
Kothani said that the different age groups have their own strengths. Millennials tend to have an affinity for technology, understand younger users and more open to new ideas or learning new skills. The older workers tend to have more experience solving problems and issues that come up, he said. Nonetheless, his 435-employee company works well with their varying skill sets.
"We all share a common vision," he said. "We can get everyone to work together."
