Insights Into YC’s Interview Process

  • What they look for:
    • The ability of founders to communicate their idea clearly
      • “A founder who truly understands what they’re working on is able to explain it to a layman” – Michael Seibel
    • Founders should know more about their customers and product than the interviewer
    • Interviews provide a great way to further assess if founders have a good relationship
  • After interviews each Partner can vote: Strong Yes, Weak Yes, Strong No, Weak No
    • In the past, startups admitted to YC with 3 “Weak Yes”, tended to perform badly
    • Now, as long as there is one Strong Yes, the company will be accepted
      • If someone can’t dream a startup to be something massive, it probably won’t be

 

Also listen to this podcast, Michael Seibel gave some good insights about the process and what they look for.
