>> I am not looking for passions that align with the company, I am looking for passion itself
I used to think the same. But over time, i realised passion in other stuff doesn't correlate to passion at work. sometimes they end up being distraction.
Also there are people who don't like to share much outside of work.
I think more than passion, focus (esp. attention to details) is essential. Someone who understands depth of his/her work is likely to be better learner.
For e.g. everyone can use an open source library but underlying working of libraries are explored by a few.
