He grew up in a neighborhood full of engineers, working electronics and gizmos, etc. It shaped his interest in the field. Alongside Jobs, were two other creators of Apple, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne. While in high school, he boldly called Hewlett-Packard co-founder and President William Hewlett to ask for parts for a school project. Impressed by Jobs, Hewlett not only gave him the parts, but also offered him a summer internship at Hewlett-Packard.  Personal characteristics that shaped Jobs as a successful entrepreneur was unbelievable imagination, envision your company much better, products and services uncanny ability to develop and design tech products (now being everyday products) He’s truly a legend in the concept of innovative interactive design.

When Jobs returned to the U.S., he renewed his friendship with Wozniak, who had been trying to build a small computer. To Wozniak, it was just a hobby, but the visionary Jobs grasped the marketing potential of such a device and convinced Wozniak to go into business with him.
