Victor Cardenas Codriansky, co-founder & CEO of Slash, believes elite schools like Stanford University donโt automatically create elite engineers. According to Victor, many students entering tech are highly intelligent generalists. Theyโre smart. Ambitious. Capable. But thereโs a massive difference between being generally smartโฆ And being obsessed with building. Victor says the strongest engineers Slash hired were usually people who had already spent years: โข Writing code โข Shipping projects โข Building products โข Experimenting constantly Not because they had to. But because they genuinely loved it. Victor believes startups reward execution far more than credentials. Because at the end of the day, companies care less about where you studiedโฆ And more about whether you can actually create something valuable. produced by @atomik-growth #newyork #sanfrancisco #stanford #technology #engineering #startup #success #billionaire
