- Maascamp 12y agoIs it? It quotes Altman as saying, "Going way out of our way to invite people to apply who don't fit the stereotypical start-up mold has worked really well for us." Sounds exactly like they're just attempting to cast a wider net. Any other implications you took from that weren't from the article.

- meowface 12y agoI'm not in favor of affirmative action-type initiatives, but nothing in this article suggested anything like that. I kind of expected it would, but it didn't.
- thaumaturgy 12y agoThe article doesn't say what you're doing to recruit more minorities. Are you making a PR effort, or developing different business contacts, or starting a new program, or...? Just curious. (And glad you're making the effort.)
