For example, in oil exploration, safety considerations may be a top research priority. Such problems may have to be solved regardless of cost because the organization would be wrong to ignore them. Research needed to protect human health and the environment from improper disposal of hazardous waste falls in the same category. One of the most difficult problems is deciding when to abandon a problem that does not seem to be solvable. There is always the hope that with a few more months of work the problem will be solved.

For example, it is necessary to scrutinize very carefully a person’s tolerance for ambiguity and need for autonomy and change. People with internal standards and self-confidence are highly desirable, because in many cases research can be very discouraging. The person who is not easily discouraged and is sure of his or her goals and how to reach them is more likely to persist. Interaction with peers is also essential, since most new ideas are generated not by reading the literature but by talking with others who are working on similar problems.
