Ask HN: Any current Thiel Fellows here?

14 pointsgavribirnbaum1 comment

I am in the application process this year and just had 2 calls. Would love to hear what was your experience like so far and what advice could you give to an ambitious applicant.

Would love to hear your thoughts or talk. You can also write me at gabriel (at) barbra.io :)

Wow, I'm jealous. Good luck!

You're in pretty rarefied air. There's only 20-25 a year and they've been doing it for ~10 years. So maybe there are 250 Thiel Fellows total. [1]

There's a list of notables on [1] that you might be able to reach out to, or maybe you could contact someone doing admin at the Fellowship to connect you.
