There is a saying that only people, who have ambitions in life, succeed in life and become a person of significance. A seven year old girl called Chloe Bridgewater from Hereford, UK, has written a cute letter to Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, addressing him as ‘Google boos’ and applying for a job at Google. She has mentioned in her letter that she would like to work with Google (a dream company for many) as well as a chocolate factory and do swimming at the Olympics when she grows up. Read more on UK

She said that her father said that she could sit on bean bags, go down slides and ride go karts if she landed a job in Google. She said that she has a computer and a tablet in which she plays games. She said that her dad downloaded a game for her in which she has to move a robot up and down squares. This according to her father will help her understand robots and computers better. She mentioned in her letter that her teachers tell her parents that she behaves well in class and is good at English and Math. Her father had told that if she continues learning every day, she will one day, land a job at Google. She said that she has a sister called Hollie Bridgewater who is aged five and who likes to dress up and play with dolls. Her dad asked her to submit an application to get a job in Google. She has no idea what it is, so she wrote a letter instead. Finally, she thanked the ‘Google boss’ for reading her letter and mentioned that she wrote just one other letter until now and that was to her father during Christmas.

Here is a copy of her actual letter.

Dear Google boss,

My name is Chloe and when I am bigger I would like a job with Google. I also want to work in a chocolate factory and do swimming in the Olympics. I go swimming on Saturday and a Tuesday.  My dad said I can sit on bean bags and go down slides and wide go karts in a job in Google. I like computers too and have a tablet I play games on. 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. My dad said he will get me a computer one day. I am 7 years old and my teachers tell my mum and dada I am very good in class and am good at my spelling and reading and my sums. My dad told me if I carry on being good and learning then one day I will be able to have a job at Google. My sister Hollie is also very clever but she like doll and dressing up, she is 5. 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. Thank you for reading my letter, I have only ever sent one other and that was to Father during Christmas. Good bye.

Chloe Bridgewater, Age 7.

Sundar Pichai was impressed by the little girl’s letter and replied encouragingly. He thanked the girl for writing the letter and said that he was glad that she liked computers and robots. He hoped that she would continue to learn about technology and one day land a job in Google or a chocolate factory or become a swimmer at the Olympics. Finally he said that he looked forward to receiving her job application after she completed college and wished her all the best.

Here is a copy of the letter he wrote to her.

Dear Chloe,

Thank you so much for your letter. 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 follow your dreams, you can accomplish everything you set your mind to-from working at Google to swimming in the Olympics. I look forward to receiving your job application when you are finished with school.

All the best to you and your family.

After reading Sundar Pichai’s reply, the girl is now even more eager to do well at school and work for Google. Read more on Startup News
