I really love this concept and hope it succeeds. Lowering the barrier to entry to highly technical fields is a win-win for everyone. Congrats on your progress so far!
My only question is how a highly productive individual at a top bank or startup justifies taking the time out of their day to speak to a newbie. I know they get paid, but I would imagine it's peanuts compared to their 6 figure salaries. What is their main motivation in scheduling calls?
- dchhugani 8y agoThanks for the kind words jakemor! We're surprised at this ourselves - they seem to enjoy being in the "expert" seat because most of them are junior level people who aren't traditionally thought of as experts or people whose insights are worth money. I think we're learning it's a powerful combo - get paid to talk about yourself, show off how smart you are + help other people out who are struggling to overcome what you already did.
