Share icon Share Modal close ADVERTISEMENT Ask most 7-year-olds what they want to be when they grow up and you can guarantee that the responses will be typically fantastical, from spacemen and cowgirls to firefighters and rock stars. But all Chloe Bridgewater wants to do is work for Google (well OK, and also work in a chocolate factory and be an Olympic swimmer). She even sent them a hand-written job application, which was the only letter she’s even sent except for one to Father Christmas. And guess what? Not only did she get a response; the response came courtesy of none other than the CEO of Google himself, Mr. Sundar Pichai. “Dear Google boss,” wrote the 7-year-old from Hereford, UK. “My name is Chloe and when I am bigger I would like a job with Google.” She wrote it after she asked her father, Andy, what he’d like to do if he didn’t sell refrigerator parts. He told her that Google would be cool and showed her some pictures of their headquarters in Silicon Valley, and the moment she saw the bean bags, slides and go-karts, she knew she’d found her dream job. He encouraged her to write an application and so she did, but neither of them were prepared for the response they received a few days later. See for yourself below. Andy recently posted it on his LinkedIn page and Twitter account, and it’s since been liked more than 94k times.More info: Twitter When a 7-year-old Chloe wrote a letter to Google, she never expected a reply from the CEO himself!Share iconThe letter was only the second one Chloe had ever written.

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 following 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, Sundar Pichai, CEOThe internet was quick to praise Chloe’s motivation and character.

Girl sending a letter is going to be an example for people who can't find a job? Guess you haven't ever sought job for a longer period of time. When you are running out of money for basic things like food and your bills, the last thing you care about are your dreams. You want to survive. That's all. No 'law of attraction' b******t. No chasing your dreams. Just get a source of money. That's everything you want if you are unemployed.

Wishing stuff when you are 8 is on thing, fighting to get them when you are 20-30 is another...it's not easy, it doesn't always happens, your dreams change but it doesn't mean you have to abandon them completely.

Part of dream huh? Have you noticed how much your own goals and wishes changed over time? At some point you will get it, the things you need are decent salary, place to live and someone who will be facing the reality of this life with you. If you have enough time and money, well do whatever you want. Not my business. Your dreams, passions and other stuff will change over time. Not sure if it's worth it to look back one day and see that you wasted time and money doing something you don't really want or need right now.
