I am in automotive and am familiar with Flextronics. There are zillions of people out there "in automotive". I would only get excited about this new hire if his role was somehow in the context of IP analysis/patents etc. I haven't seen that yet. Anybody? Havent had much time as I am in almost a constant scramble because I am "in automotive". His work ethic is probably pretty good if he's not a burnout. Otherwise- I dunno! LOL
