The life of Dmitry Chistyakov can be called successful, but not easy. As a child, he was diagnosed with 3rd degree RAD. Because of this, he had problems with studies and communication with peers. But when he got acquainted with programming, everything changed.
The first experience at BASIC in the sixth grade, the first sites for rap singers, the launch of startups abroad and management positions in IT.
It would seem that everything is fine, and there is nothing to complain about. But at some point, Dmitry realized that life was not going the way he wanted. This thought led to the fact that he moved to the United States, where he now lives and works.
What did he do in Russia and why he moved, how HR work in the USA, what are the features of Silicon Valley, why New York is a “purgatory for IT people”, why come to the USA with his “baggage” - in an interview with Dmitry. Questions were asked by Svetlana Petrovicheva , founder of GetIT and Headz.io.
