Jonathon, cool. Is step 4 missing?

Looks like Tristan and Salar have a great deal in common. Not that it's a science (not at all), but here are seven tips on how to join the next Google or Foursquare:

1. Find a growing industry or space that you're passionate about.

2. Create a short list of exciting start-ups in that space.

3. Get in touch with those start-ups' founders via connection, introduction, or hustle.

5. Email the team with things of value -- competitive landscape, bugs, specific feedback.

6. Find a way to meet in person, interview, or keep in touch if a job opening arises.

7. Persist.

good catch, thank you! Also Adam, I'm amazed at how personable you are - you reply/comment on just about everything! So unique to see these days.

I reply and comment whenever I can but there are a lot of threads where I drop the ball...

So if ever I miss something, just message me.

I do love chatting on PandaWhale.
