I was rejected with clearbit.com
Was told the business required a degree of enterprise sales that my skills weren't suited for. It's now worth $350m (on paper at least).
That said, no hard feelings. They see so many applications - they're bound to make the wrong decision time to time.

- ignoramous 4y ago> ...the business required a degree of enterprise sales that my skills weren't suited for. 10mins isn't enough time and their judgement is likely to be off (it is also mostly also down to the interviewee / founders to sell themselves in whatever time they have). I've heard this similar "no skill" story before from another start-up (which isn't doing as good... yet). > It's now worth $350m (on paper at least). YC's bar is $10b exits. I hope you get there!
- bot41 4y agoLooks like clearbit is "just" a broad services company. I thought YC invests in more specific products/services like dropbox or airbnb. (I don't think there's anything wrong with clearbit just to be clear)
