Ramp’s billionaire CEO ignores résumés and Ivy League degrees—he’s more interested in engineers who built Minecraft servers as teens

Ramp's CEO, Eric Glyman, is revolutionizing hiring by prioritizing real-world experience over traditional credentials. He's scouting for engineers who, like many successful tech entrepreneurs, started building things early in life, such as Minecraft servers during their teens. This strategy mirrors Elon Musk's unconventional approach at SpaceX and Tesla, emphasizing "proof of work" over academic pedigree. By focusing on hands-on experience, Glyman aims to build a team that's innovative and capable of tackling complex challenges, which could give Ramp a competitive edge in the fast-evolving tech industry.
