Ask HN: I am a non-technical senior in college interested in startups
2 points by zallarak on Aug 26, 2010 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
HN, this post has 2 parts. Part 1 is a question I have and part 2 is a potential proposition.

1) As the title suggests, I am not a programmer, but I do have pretty solid general business skills (finance, marketing, etc.). Is there a demand for non-technical people such as me in the world of startups? If so, how do I get involved?

2) If anyone here has the need for a non-technical employee/intern I would be glad to help for little or no salary - to get the experience and learn while I am still in college and have the chance. I would be glad to provide credentials and educational info. Short background is I study finance and brain science, interned in investment banking and have a veery basic grasp of programming (python) but do enjoy it.




Read the thousands of other questions asking the same thing. Obviously you know the answer, if not then you're wasting your time.
