SV day four

Today 10 of us visited Sequoia Capital, Benchmark and Battery Ventures. None of them have jobs, of course, so it was primarily informational. Much more interesting than the large tech companies of the first three days this week.

We met with partners at all of these firms and each gave us a very honest assessment of the vc industry, their firm and our chances of finding a job in the industry (zero). With only ten students it was extremely informal - all but Sequoia left the powerpoint for another day. It was interesting to see some of the philosophical differences between three successful vcs.
