I got mine booked for the 16th. Do they usually do this video call before the interviews? If so what do they ask?

I think for international teams it's the stage before final intrviews. I suppose they will clear some details about your business. What do you do, Why you are better all that stuff.

Yeah the two main questions they asked us was; 1. What are you building? 2. How are you going to get tens of thousands of paying users?

Also asked a few follow up questions about the product. The call lasted for 6 minutes. It all happened super quickly. 3 more days to go :)

So YC is conducting Video Interviews too prior to sending invitations?

I read that they started doing it recently for international teams. So that they can clarify a few things before asking the teams to fly in.

Are you from outside the US?

Yep, from outside the US. Visiting NY at the moment. How about you?
