I had the opportunity to speak with a founder of a startup
that connects students and recent graduates with job opportunities at startup
companies. I asked him about the kinds of applications he sees and he had a
very interesting answer. He explained to me that students assume that the
things fortune 500 looks for are exactly the same as what a startup looks for.
In the world of startups progress and growth is the key focus. We need to grow
into a sustainable business. We need to progress to our goals. So why should I
care about how much your GPA is? Why should I care what clubs you were the
president of? I’m not saying there’s
something wrong these things, it’s that startups look at this completely
different.
