I believe in meritocracy and that Harvard should prioritize academic excellence and truth over other metrics.

In a meritocratic culture, it's essential to promote individuals based on their performance in their specific disciplines rather than on general management skills, ensuring that leaders are the best in their fields.

When recruiting, many employers use university prestige as a proxy for talent, which can lead to overlooking highly capable individuals who don't fit that mold.

Universities should focus on providing a pedagogical experience rather than solely aiming to create billion-dollar startups, which can lead to a mismatch of goals for students.

When hiring, prioritize finding the best talent and providing them with the necessary tools to succeed, rather than focusing solely on cost-cutting measures.

Meritfirst aims to revolutionize hiring by implementing tests that measure actual skills rather than relying on traditional credentials.

The aspiration for inclusion and fairness is a core value of America and capitalism, and we must continue to strive for a meritocracy that works for everyone.

The recruitment paradigm is shifting; companies are moving away from using GPAs and university names as proxies for talent.

Top talent should focus on solving major global challenges instead of optimizing ads for tech companies, as there's a greater need for impactful work.
