Have a look at a sample team profile http://bridge-teams.com/team/32/bridge-.net- team. a. On a scale of 1-10, which items are important for you to see in the profile of your team: - the company - projects - the way they take a project from A to Z (process) - team details - profiles/cv's of individual team members b. What would you like to show about your own team? What did we miss? What would you remove? 4. What would be the decisive factor to make you work with an external team? 5. What would it take for you to post your first job on our platform? 6. How would you describe our platform in 1-2 sentences to someone else? 7. Who do you know that could benefit from using our platform?
