The biggest problem is there aren’t that many good programmers in the world,” says co-founder Nicholas Bergson-Shilcock, “We see programming as a craft and we see Hacker School as environment were people can flourish.
SV Angel And Founder Collective Give Hackruiter $200K For Its Hacker School | TechCrunch
I am so happy to see that Hackruiter is growing and continuing to see success. I worked with both Nick and Sonali for several years at OpenPlans, and have been watching HireHive, and now Hackruiter’s progress since.
These guys are as smart as they come, and I really like the way they’re growing their business (Hackruiter) and the related programs (Linked List NYC, Braindump, and now Hacker School). All of their stuff definitely has (much more than) Minimum Viable Personality, and that’s perhaps the thing I like the most about it.
Re: Hacker School - somewhere in here is a lesson about the future of education. Students pay no tuition, but it’s a competitive process, and it’s all financed by placement fees upon their exit of the program. Maybe this only works in tech, but it’s still clever.
Congrats guys, and keep up the good work!
