I want to join a Startup Chile team, help me get this noticed

Just in case you didn't already know of this, but they have a job board for the Startup Chile companies: http://startupchile.org/joinastartup/

Hi, I'm a founder from a past-round Start-Up Chile selected team. I don't see the reason for the mystery. As a founder I would have been suspicious about your offer. If I would have been looking for a co-founder after being accepted , I would have been looking for someone that cares about my project, and not someone who wants to be in Start-Up Chile just for the sake of it (I'm not saying this is your case, it's just hard to know why are you doing it).

It would help if you tell more about why you want to do it, and explain your skills a little bit more (which Startups have you made a career on, language that you use, OSS projects that you have contributed).

Start-Up Chile is a great experience, hope you can find what you are looking for. good luck!

You should mention why you are interested in joining a startup that is going to Chile. Are you in Chile yourself? Or is there some other reason for this.

I am not going to Startup Chile, but the question popped on my head as i read your website.

It will also be helpful if you can update your contact details in the YC Profile too. Have it in the description field. The Email field can be seen only by YC.

The anonymity is off-putting. A more detailed post with known author, past work examples and preferred industries/product areas would act as a better filter for both sides. It currently reads as: a) someone who just wants to go to Chile for summer then go from there OR b) someone who was but no longer is, part of a StartUp Chile team and wants to remain in Chile for summer by joining another team.

Instead of doing the "guy*" thing where you point out that you're just as excited to work with women as men, I would remove the gender-specific language altogether. Then it's a non-issue. If you don't exclude female co-founders right off the bat, they will most likely assume you're just as excited to work with them.

I am really interested in the Startup Chile program and I've heard frequently teams need technical cofounders. This is my attempt to reach out to them.

Please email/tweet/upvote.

Throwaway account because I'm trying to control who knows who I am.
