I'm a fairly decent engineer, and built two startups from the ground-up during my university days. I recently just graduated, and it's been so hard to find a job mostly because of the fact that all my positives are that I've built products for thousands of users, but I have terrible grades and a crappy GPA because of focusing on said startups during school.

How can I overcome this? Does anybody hire without looking at GPA?

What if the fact that we cannot erase bad memories/traumatic experiences is actually a bug in the optimization process of our own neural network, which decided to converge at a local minimum instead of the global minimum?

Obviously the prerequisite for this would be that backpropogation of error actually occurs in the brain, but what do you think?

Its been about a year of constant development to bring my startup; www.blip.delivery to a stage where I can launch.

However, it’s been half a month and I haven’t seen any leads/customers for the product. I know what I’m doing is a huge problem businesses face today, and the solution is decent too. However, I’m beginning to get really demotivated by the lack of leads.

I live in Canada, and running google ads here has led to a grand total of 0 leads. When I ran adverts in the US, I got about 30 clicks per day on an extremely low budget, and even two leads in one day. What’s the problem? Is it just the country I’m based in? I’m feeling extremely demotivated, and I don’t want to give up, but it’s just sad to see a company I’ve built alone and written more than 20k LOC for, can’t generate a single lead.

Maybe I was too naive and thought a great product would mean customers barging in. Any advice for me? I’m 22 years old, and studying at University.
