    Pretty cool thing I just heard a bunch of Lambda School students are building: A "failure-based" job application tracker. You get points and badges for being turned down.

        We instituted a reward system of high fives for paper rejections in grad school and I can confirm it works well

        This is a really interesting idea. I wonder if this will encourage people to stretch more in their job applications. I hope they run some metrics around the career trajectory of people using this service versus the norm.

        Good idea to focus on the amount of success in the process, instead of amount of success in individual applications. :)

        Nice idea! Reminds me of “Go for No!” by Richard Fenton. Like many sales books and business fables, it’s kind of corny, but I still enjoyed it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00507TDJM/

        We wants to do that with bank VC and startups, they became not just defensive but started to get hostile at the idea.

        Would be interesting to see how many companies turn down someone before they hire and specific to position. Now you have data on both sides.
