One interesting point I hadn't seen before is the following recommendation:
Have someone in YC vouch for you
Is this common? How's it transmitted to YC, through the application or do they specifically write PG and crew to let them know about it?
We are in a position where we can get a recommendation from two alumni but we felt it was not a correct thing to do when we submitted our app. Anyone else has experience with this?

- benologist 15y agoConsidering how competitive it is if you have friends willing to vouch for you then do it, with so many applicants it's very easy for you to slip through the cracks whether you should or not. Beyond YC don't be afraid to leverage your contacts in general, it'll help you succeed.
- wuster 15y agoThere wasn't an obvious field to put in this information. What would be the most appropriate spot in the application for this?
