I received my invitation today and am quite excited to attend and learn more. Who else is planning on going?

For those that don't know what I am referring to: http://workatastartup.org/

Did they reject anybody? There is a small marginal cost for every invitation they issued but a huge option value if any of their startups hires someone.

I got a rejection. Still determined to work at a startup so will have to look for some other opportunity to fulfill that dream.

I heard many people submitted verbatim copies of their resume. Imagine having to browse through hundreds of applications and ASCII resumes. I suspect formatting of resumes trumped content.

I'm moving from Toronto to Mountain View this weekend and was excited to receive the invitation for this event last night.
