"For a given company, the partners just need to identify that there is some slight promise that makes an interview worthwhile."

This sounds very forgiving and makes me wonder how many out of those estimated 4000 get the interview.

I think it would be great to read a couple of the ones that didn't get interviews. It's helpful to also learn from those that get rejected.
