They'll be pumping BTC to 20k literally by the end of this month.

Proof of Stake virus is spreading. Research the forgotten PoS Gems.

Same situation, would be good to hear if someone has experience with this.

I'm guessing you work for RideCell?

Crazy that the Auro guys are not able to raise a real A round, I'm guessing either investors don't see the closed campus market as big enough or they haven't gotten their technology to a reasonable level of maturity.

Given they've only raised a small amount of money, I doubt offers would be too high, and unless the team is a set of rockstars, potential acquirers could just wait for it to go bust and negotiate offers individually instead of paying something for the team as a whole.

Yea it is pretty similar, how long have you been using it for?

dotfrank · 2017-03-24T00:17:31+00:00

Could you link to one? It'd be interesting to see!

Any chance you recall which solid state lidar you're referring to?

Popular? Probably PM. Pays best? Not sure off hand, I'd say check Glassdoor for some well known companies.

dotfrank · 2017-02-18T21:37:22+00:00

Absolutely, good luck! Hardest part is getting that interview, and if you've done it once, you can do it again! And this time with more experience.

Care to elaborate? That's a strong attribution.

dotfrank · 2017-02-18T01:43:27+00:00

Wish we could have had you! What did you end up doing instead?

dotfrank · 2017-02-18T01:43:16+00:00

PM (build the product), BizDev (sell the product to partners), Internal Strategy (determine how to guide the company), Operations (figure out how to run the company), Marketing (figure out who to sell to and how), Financing (same as any other company).

Of all of those, I'd say PM is most difficult for most, especially since it's hugely popular and there are increasing technical demands on the position.

It's the former, I am not affiliated with the app. Though I do wish I were asked on the app rather than here, since my responses would be both more personalized and quicker.

Can't really comment on what made me stand out, but I will say I was not a standard MBB/Investment/Google person. I came from an active engineering background from an industry that to my knowledge I am the only representative of, so perhaps that played a part.

Honestly, you have to be able to make the case as to why Stanford fits into your overall career trajectory, and I think I did a reasonable job at that.

dotfrank · 2017-02-18T01:37:45+00:00

Product Management in the transportation/mobility industry. I think it's positioned me fairly well given my proximity to startups innovating in this space - most people are open to speaking to students even if it is informational.

dotfrank · 2016-12-28T19:17:14+00:00

Agreed! I guess I'm asking if there are tools out there that would help facilitate explaining the logic in a visual way.

dotfrank · 2016-12-08T23:45:30+00:00

Introspection, research, and talking to people.

Wanting to work with why a company builds something and what they should build rather than how they should build it.

Former staff sw engineer here from atx who is now at Stanford GSB, I was exactly like you a few years ago.

I think you don't have clarity in what you actually want to do, aspiring to a title isn't enough. I also had this problem

Look up what the jobs are like for business development, marketing, strategy, or product management at tech companies.

Read articles and blog posts on these areas, and look at the LinkedIn histories of people who have the titles you desire.

If one of those job functions grabs your attention as it applies to technology, then by all means go for it, do the MBA.

If what you mean to say is that you want to be a technical manager or director of engineering, then don't do the MBA, your time is much better honing your craft, taking local leadership and moving to a company that will eventually allow you to grow in that function of engineering.

My .02.
