Very interesting article. I have to agree with this article. Being a startup in the Silicon Valley is a very difficult task, which is scaring many to look for outer markets. A market like Seattle is a great place to start.
It is a very interesting article, but I wonder if companies would show the average Gender hiring when it comes to applicants. Sure, a man with the same skills could've gotten the job, but what if there were 5 women who also applied with the same skill set? It just depends on the way that you view the situation. Different perspective, in my opinion.
I was very excited when I read the title, but was sort of disappointed when i found out it was mostly shopping. But I do think that they are paving the way for something special and cannot wait to see where this is in 5 years time.
A Masters is not really needed unless you need it for your specific career, but in most cases a Bachlelor's gets you a starting career. In this economy and way of living, careers are getting hard to find and degrees give you an advantage over most. That isn't to say that you're guaranteed a career. Some don't need a degree because their communication skills get them through most of the process. Somewhere in between, however, they would have to get the knowledge somehow.
Wow. This truly was a very interesting article. The story of how a man started from the ground up and became one of the greatest man right now. Thank you for the article.
