2nd rounds have come out.
Do you know what the timeline for hearing back is?
Damn what are y’all’s backgrounds? I’m feeling pretty weird about not receiving an interview with a pretty objectively stacked résumé, but it might just be typical exited-founder delusion.
…
IMO i think they're looking for people who are just die hards into investing. Other fellowships like Kleiner Perkins, or Thrive probably look for more exit-founders for their fellowships.
hmmm I think it's generally hard to prove you're die hards into investing unless you're already writing angel checks right. Past fellows majorly coming from a GS/Vista internship also doesn't really feel like it. idk I did consumer so I think KP and Thrive might not be the biggest fan of that. Anyways, gl and hope you get in lol.
have 3rd rounds come out yet?
