Threats and opportunities in taking promising results to scale: why isn’t going from 64 kids in Jamaica to 67,000 kids in Peru like https://t.co/qisTCIRTfL? I look at a new paper by @caridadaraujo & co-authors and contrast with some of my own efforts https://t.co/KJNwV2kuJn

Useful insights into Econ tech jobs preparation, and salary negotiations.

[Scarlet Chen @ScarletSijia]

For those of you who know, I decided to quit academia + go into tech this June. After I was done with my recruiting journey, I felt the urge to share my experience with those in the same process. So here we go: https://t.co/jtmWYy8IUx

Testing internet with your friends beforehand is a good advice. I had trouble in one virtual interview because of the delay in audio/video.
