William James Sidis was born April 1, 1898 in Boston, Massachusetts.
And, while he happened to be born on April Fool’s Day … he was anything but!
By age 2 … he was reading the New York Times.
By age 6 … he could speak 7 languages; English, Latin, French, German, Russian, Turkish and Armenian.
At 9 years old … he qualified for Harvard, but waited until he was eleven to attend.
He was considered a super-genius, with an IQ estimated to be 250 to 300 (higher than that of Albert Einstein).
What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
Nothing, really.
That said … it doesn’t take a ‘super-genius’ to see a good opportunity staring them in the face! And, if you’re a recent grad, looking to start your professional career … look no further.
With offices in the Mississauga area, our client is looking for a Customer Care Representative. They recognize new graduates have limited experience … but certain characteristics can be strong indicators of success.
