Alex Immerman on Hiring

Alex Immerman@aleximm

Waymo is the driver I trust most, and I'm not alone. 400k+ rides every week across 6 US metros. It’s clearly time to scale @Waymo. 20+ new cities across the US + international in '26. We @a16z are fired up to deepen our partnership and quadruple down in the Series D.

Why it worked

Opens with a short, self-contained line that is easy to take in at a glance.
Uses concrete numbers instead of vague claims, which makes it credible and quotable.
Follows a clear Hook → Context → Context → Landing shape, so the reader always knows where they are.
Ends on a short line that is easy to quote and repeat.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Context → Context → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
